Here is an audio interview with James Partridge, maker of Daylight and Deep Down.
In this podcast we talk about the mod in detail and general mapping/modding issues.
It lasts for 1 hour and 13 minutes. Enjoy!
Firmly sticking to the Half Life 2 formula, Deep Down is a new entry in the story of Alyx and Gordon as they continue the hunt for Combine Advisors in the area surrounding White Forest.
Combine Forces, Zombies and Antlions lie between them and the brooding menace deep below the earth that will test both their skills further than ever before.
If you miss the Half Life 2 formula and are tired of waiting patiently for Episode 3 then this mod is for you. Featuring new gameplay elements, fiendish puzzles and blistering action, Deep Down will provide your Half Life 2 fix (well some of it at least).

Starting off in a caged-off room, you need to get the tram working and then follow it along through a couple of electrical and direction puzzles.
Don’t expect it too easy though, there’s a few soldiers whose sole purpose in life is to stop you.
Built 12 years ago and only now seeing the light of day, this map ends in the top floor bathroom.

This is a remake of an original Half-Life mod called The Challenger Deep.
This re-designed mod has been in development for more than 7 years and has been made by the same author.
It follows the same storyline as the original.

Well, there is a reason for this and James Partridge explains and offers some help.

MiddleVille is the second competition in the 3×24 series.
It continues from BeginningVille and comprises the main part of the (hopefully) final mod.
There are two entries in this mod, both continue from their previous entries.

Alex and I have been working hard on the next version of MapTap (well, mostly Alex), and I have decided that from this version onwards, I will release each beta version.
In this case, it’s even more important than usual to get a wide variety of testers. This version should now detect the correct location of your Half-Life installation.

You see that image to the left? It comes from the Half-Life 2 chapter Follow Freeman, which I have just finished playing. It’s the view from inside the Combine Nexus just as a Combine Gunship passes over the roof.
What struck me today, and quite hard too, was that playing a game like Half-Life 2 once is not enough. That may sound obvious to you but as somebody who is only just playing his way through the games for only the second time, it’s a very important point.
