You start at the top of a shaft, with no other way to go except down.
Clearly the only thing to do is find an escape route.
Work slowly and methodically, as your path is not always clear.
So, I was chatting with Au Heppa, one of the makers of Water (which is currently being tested by the BTC) about modding and indie games. It has become clear that a lot of mods have considered converting to other engines and therefore turning themselves in to indie games.

So, this week I was looking around the Steam store and I noticed that everything uses the “http://store.steampowered.com/app/…” URL and that got me wondering why Valve don’t sell APPlications through Steam.
I don’t own many applications because there are so many free ones available but for some things I buy applications and it would be so nice to just install and load Steam and have my applications available from where ever I can use Steam.

This article is not a review of Portal 2. That will be posted on a new part of the site eventually. This is an article ABOUT Portal 2.
This short article contains spoilers about the game and my upcoming review.
Let’s get this over and done with…. I was a little disappointed with Portal 2. The beginning was okay, the middle fantastic and the end, mostly meh! with one “WOW, cool! moment.

There are lots of things that affect how popular a mod becomes and how much coverage it gets. In fact, I had a conversation with somebody recently about his mod and I used the phrase “The right mod, in the right place at the right time”.
A few days ago I posted a mod called The Sewer and it’s quite good in some sections and average in others.

In the PP Discussion Podcast 002 I mentioned commercial mods, and the idea of a commercial HL mod popped into my head. I said I would make it this week’s Poll Question and here it is!
I am not saying that Valve should but I feel it’s a valid question.

You play in a room with Barney, Dog, Alyx, Father Grigori, a vortigaunt, a few citizens and the G-man. The room is just a box with a large image of Dr. Breen on the wall and a bunch of zombie trying to kill everything.
