Add-on dossier
Standby, Nyan, and four-level Portal puzzle game
A linkable lifecycle record for hardware expansions, app ecosystems, firmware upgrades, cases, radio parts, and post-event badge experiments.

documented game and interaction design
The design document describes Standby, Game, and Nyan modes plus a four-level puzzle in which spheres move through portals while users avoid or extinguish fire. The committed source contains standby, nyan, game, Simon, fire, display, random, and unlock modules. Design notes include TBD/possibly-change language, so this is a documented pre-event design and implementation trail rather than proof of final gameplay or attendee instructions.

official maker presale page
BigFuckingBadge's live DC34 page identifies the 14×14-inch Companion-Cube-shaped, touch-activated Portal Badge, limited/open presale wording, $120 pre-con and $150 during-con advertised prices, and its Portal Gun SAO companion. This is a current maker availability statement, not proof of an order, completed production, pickup, delivery, DEF CON issuance, third-party-IP permission, or image reuse.

public design documentation
The public project `design.docx` describes Standby, Game, and Nyan modes; the four-level sphere/portal/fire game; Portal Gun SAO, badge-to-badge USB, and solder-on unlock ideas; and associated sound/light behavior. It is design evidence, not a final production, licensing, or event-distribution specification.

public firmware repository
Public CH32V303 firmware project with PlatformIO configuration, C source, sound and game modules, August 2 final-code-check commit, and an embedded design document. GitLab reports no detected project license and no release is published.

public hardware and fabrication repository
Public companion board project preserving KiCad, Gerber, production, board-variant, position, acrylic, and manufacturing-oriented files. GitLab reports no detected project license and the source does not state a final production BOM or event-unit allocation.

public source hierarchy
Public GitLab group whose full path is `hexum-public-share/bfb/dc34/public/badge/portal-badge`; it contains separate software, hardware, and sound projects. The hierarchy is the direct source of the record's DC34 event association, but it does not state organizer affiliation, ticket inclusion, allocation, pickup, or a final release.

Primary source for the public `bfb/dc34/public/badge/portal-badge` hierarchy and its separate Portal Badge source projects. The explicit `dc34` path supports a conservative pre-event DEF CON 34 association only; it does not establish official DEF CON endorsement, admission, allocation, or fulfillment.
