Hour Glass

for Half-Life

Hour Glass is mission-based and involves time travel to various planets.

After the events at Black Mesa, Gordon Freeman is hired by Intergalactic Time Reassurance, Inc.

As an ITR agent Gordon must maintain the true historical time line.

Heavily influenced by Quake 2 architecture and uses “keys” in order to open some doors.

The game also includes some Duke Nukem sounds and ideas.

The game includes some weapon, model, sound and texture replacements.

WARNING: Hour-Glass contains some sounds, images and an animated sequence that is NOT suitable for minors.
