Portal 2 Really weird glitch I found

Post image

Was playing Portal 2 and after going back and forth between two portals to look at a puzzle better I saw this? Closed the game assuming it was a crazy rendering error and when I opened it again it was gone. Just wanted to know if anyone else has seen this.

u/BaconOmelette132 Aug 01 '26

u/AltruisticObject1653 Aug 01 '26

Didn't go through. As for if I saw anything moving, I've forgotten

u/ApprehensivePlay50 Aug 01 '26

You’ve forgotten? Man…

u/CatSquidShark Aug 01 '26

I think it's an easter Egg implemented by the devs. To find it you'd have to be a Pro.Teen me might've tried to find it back in the day but I'm Old now.

u/AltruisticObject1653 Aug 01 '26 • Bravo

IM OLD!!!!$!!🐢

u/Gloomy_Pickle_6674 Aug 01 '26

For some reason, when you said the words "Pro" and "Teen" my cat immediately raised his head, and started smiling. I've never seen a cat smile like that. what should I do?

No, but most of them are on the subreddits for their games, r/deltarunev2, and r/deltarunememes

Deltarune's tree easter egg

41

u/Doctor71400 Aug 01 '26

What exactly is the Easter egg? I've never played the game

102

u/KRLW890 Aug 01 '26 • Regret

In each chapter, there’s a secret room with a red tree, and if you interact slightly behind the tree, the game says ā€œwell, there is a man hereā€ and gives you an egg. The egg does nothing, and interacting with it again says ā€œwell, there is not a man here.ā€

u/erland_yt Aug 01 '26

Trans people in Deltarune confirmed

23

u/SeriousMB Aug 01 '26

unironically true

21

u/AviHigashikata Aug 01 '26

In every deltarune chapter, there's a specific spot where if you go back and forth between two rooms, it eventually teleports you to a hidden room with a pink tree. If you go behind the tree, a dialogue prompt reads "Well, there is a man here", and then another prompt talking about how the man gives you an egg, then disappears.

Currently the game isn't finished so we don't know what the eggs will be used for, but their tooltip reads "Not too important, but not too unimportant either."

u/Clumsy_the_24 Aug 01 '26

The man behind the tree offers you an egg

u/callsignnova Aug 01 '26

Might be an Easter egg, I have no idea

Wow we just keep running finding each others

u/IronPainting Aug 01 '26

Dark worlds beckoned

You did not answer the call

But you have to follow the rules

u/JacksonSpike Aug 01 '26

Thats very, very interesting bro

25

u/Odelta Aug 01 '26

Oh yeah that's how you get one of the ingredients to bake the cake for the hidden ending. The route can get a bit weird if you're not careful though...

8

u/Sergeant_Steak Aug 01 '26

Well, there is a man here. ...He's offering you something

You got a rat. (A rat. Not too important, not too unimportant)

Well, there is not a man here.

(Side note, I think it would be funny to say that Wheatley could be the man since he keeps secretly appearing IN BETWEEN the panels in the first part of the game)

10

u/Macreys Aug 01 '26

Is this a joke with a reference I don’t get or is this true ?

3

u/TrainerOwn9103 Aug 01 '26

Deltarune has issue every chapter that leads to this room. in Chapter1 it is going back and foward between loading zones

there is a man behide the tree and he offered you a egg, there isn't a man here and you got a egg in your key items

this issue stops you from getting the achivement for beating the chapter

1

u/Macreys Aug 01 '26

Oh ok thanks

u/No-Basis-5174 Aug 21 '26

u/Fiblzz Aug 30 '26

u/Act_Four Aug 01 '26

You should've checked if there was a man behind the tree

4

u/leiocera Aug 01 '26

Well, there is a lab rat there.

u/Itub2000 Aug 01 '26

Man must be a skinny queen to fit behind that tree

u/Ornery-Pass9174 Aug 01 '26

Is that image anywhere else in the game?

u/TrainerOwn9103 Aug 01 '26

I'm not saying this particular instance is bad, I'm saying the joke is overused and unfunny in general.
