Developer Response ,

👋 Hi MadFoxLabs,

Thanks so much for taking the time to leave us a review. We're delighted to hear Portal was able to win you over!

The good news is no cinnamon lattes were harmed in the making of Portal 😉 We're just a team of four best friends (including two brothers) from the UK, brought together by a shared love of the natural world, technology and a dream to create experiences that change people's lives.

Great suggestions! Japan is high on the wishlist for sure. We'd actually been there briefly once before to do a test shot there, see our "Lake Kawaguchi" portal. We'd absolutely love to do a proper return trip to film and capture an entire collection from Japan. The country's culture and natural beauty is a huge attraction that resonates with what we're all about - so rest assured, if the opportunity presents itself we'll be there!

In the meantime, we've got some big plans in the works and some amazing new portals to other beautiful corners of our world on their way. So please stay tuned!

Many thanks,

Stu, Andy, Nick & Tim - Team Portal.
