    Gordon returns to Black Mesa and, just as you expected, something goes wrong.

    All hell breaks lose and it’s up to you to fix it.

    Fortunately, fellow scientists manage to find a way to send instruction text to your HEV faceplate.

    Think using the Console is only for developers? Think again. I contacted a few developers I know and asked for some suggestions that may be fun for players to try out.

    I used A Walk in the Park for testing, which is where the screenshots come from. Of course, you can use any Source game or mod you want.

    Oh Shit! You find yourself back in the, well…, shit again, I suppose.

    Don’t expect ANY mercy, as you try to reach your final death. You didn’t think you could actually escape this time did you? FOOL!

    Do your best to survive for as long as possible. That’s all you can really do under the circumstances.

    Got a chance to sit down and have a short chat with the author of Random 17, which was his first mod!

    We chat about the mod’s production and a few other things.

    Ed sad he would monitor the comments and answer any questions you have.

    You are giving an objective and you better follow the order!

    Of course, like all situations, it can change, so keep following the instructions.

    Just remember this: there is always away forward, keep exploring.

  • Half-Quake: Amen: The Present

    Author’s Note:“Well, this is a small (and I mean small) add-on for Half-Quake Amen.

    We had the idea to do it because we were all visiting MS and we thought some output just had to be there.

    Besides, Halfquake had its one year birthday (this mini was actually meant to be released at the birthday, but we weren’t able to do that) and so it should remind all players and fans of the original Mod.”

  • Poll Question 253 – Do you replay mods to get alternative endings?

    The winning entry for HalloweenVille had an alternative ending.

    I kept meaning to go back and replay it, but never did.

    I realized that unless the part where the divergence is made very clear, as in The Citizen 2, then I never go back and play it.

    Wake up. Take a shower.

    Go down the elevator and take the green truck to work.

    Oh BOY! Things just took a turn for the worst.

    Don’t let those pesky aliens or army grunts stand in your way!

  • Steam Wishlists

    This is an off-the-cuff article, that is to say I am basically writing it with no research and no drafts. What you get is the first thing that comes out my head and I am in a hurry!

    I love Steam. It’s made my life so much easier. Partly because I hate DVDs or CDs and partly because of all the other features. Sure, there are some things I HATE about it, but everything in life is a compromise.
