Summary
Part of Cave Johnson's rant about lemonade from Portal 2 plays, before a captcha appears asking for the player's name. Once they submit it, they start the game: a platformer set in Pico's world where you play as Pico, navigating them away from lava and into blue portals. As the game goes on, the levels get weirder, such as forcing the player to use a bug to clip through some elements, find blue bits other than portals, or move their mouse to rotate a level.
After Pico goes through the same levels from Pico's Bizarre Adventure 2 for a while, they enter a loading screen that says it's loading an expansion pack; eventually, it loads, and they're able to explore several more levels featuring new mechanics like a light blue color that changes the level's layout, or a key that causes parts of the level to disappear. At the end of the game, the player can press the L key to view a leaderboard.
There is also a hardcore mode that can be activated at the first level, which will cause Pico to be sent back to the start every time they die. At the end, the player is rewarded with a special end screen and leaderboard.
Differences from Pico's 2.5 include:
- A leaderboard has been added
- Certain levels are easier
- Hardcore deaths are faster
- Death counter looks smoother
- New music at the end added
