Hi!

This is post is a couple days overdue, but here it is anyway.

Quote

DownFall is a high quality Half-Life 2 single-player mod taking place in the White Forest surroundings.
You're once more donning the HEV suit as Gordon Freeman. Your mission is to recover a newly developed technology by the resistance,
known as the "citadel buster", before the Combine manage to destroy it.


Chapter 1 is available now, it's short but sweet, with an average playtime of ~35 minutes, there's an additional 2 chapters coming in the future with an estimated lengh of 40 minutes each (no ETA, valve time :v ).The main goal of the project is to provide more polished HL2 gameplay with some twists, taking place in new locations while staying true to Valve's design.
(and hopefully land a job in the long run, Valve are you reading this?)

You can grab it here.

Reception by the community has been pretty good so far, but I’d like to get as much eyes/hands on as possible.

Just played it, it's really fun and I loved the little twists in it, especially the sniper one :P. Superb design in the first level as well, in the village/resistance outpost. Loved the custom models as well. Sometimes I could see the NPCs spawn out of thin air but that's something that you can resolve in a matter of seconds. You've certainly inspired me to finally finish my own mod, even though I won't have the luck of a steam release., keep developing this!

Very cool mod, nice atmosphere. Some parts are a little confusing, but probably because I haven't played Half Life in a long time. My biggest gripe is that the trailer gives too much away, but I guess you can choose not to watch it. Looking forward to future episodes :)

It was just awesome. That's a mix of the best from HL2 (and mostly its EP2) with bigger maps and more space to discover than usual.

I just couldn't find that ladder at the end of that first map, i thought this zigzag was just a secondary path with a reward (ammo crates or something) for people trying to discover everything. Try making the big fence door obviously blocked, I was convinced I had to continue by car.
Also, I thought i'd be able to open that big door to get in the village with my car, i looked for a way to do it for a while !

Great work, was really enjoyable !
