Stuck between a rock and a hard place, Gordon is forced to venture through a dilapidated, hostile environment in order to clear the tram line of an alien infestation.
Offering approximately 15-30 minutes of gameplay, Scylla takes the player through a winding environment full of deadly hazards and enemies. Your performance may alter parts of the level as you progress. Be sure to watch out for special NPCs; not all are obvious.
Welcome to the third challenge from The Hammer Cup 2016, which has a Grand Prize of a NECA Gravity Gun, plus other prizes for second and third places.
This challenge contains 12 entries all with the idea of a “backtracking” as the main theme.
One of the staple events in video games is the backtrack sequence. A part of the game where you retrace your steps in the exact location but this time something has changed.
The change can be due to new enemies, a violent explosion, time travel, new vehicles etc.
We would like you to create a map where the player interacts with an area and then has to backtrack through the same area, but the area must have changed.
The reason for the change and the exact change is entirely up to you.

Okay, it’s time for some actual voting.
Below you will find polls for each category. This will last until next Saturday. Each poll allows a maximum of two or three votes, depending on the category.
The final stage will only allow one vote per category. Think of this stage as an elimination stage. At the end of this stage there will only be two entries left for each category.

We have become very accustomed to playing maps and mods on one level.
That’s not to say that some maps don’t include more Z-axis gameplay, but in general it’s something that could be used to more and better effect.
This mapping challenge is all about having the player move up and down in a realistic way.
Of course, that doesn’t mean they can ONLY move up and down, but the idea of vertical gameplay or movement should be the central theme of each entry.

The change from PlanetPhillip.com to RunThinkShootLive.com was all about changing the idea that the site is about one person. Yes, I still run it and contribute 95% of the content, but I want that to change.
I would like the site to be seen as the centre or hub for Half-Life SP content and not just maps and mods.
The site could easily host much more content and a perfect example is Jason Gimba’s article The Real World Brands of Half-Life 2.
Original content would be posted on RTSL first and then after a month could be posted to the creator’s own website if he or she has one.
So this post is to encourage readers to submit content in either articles or videos. Article would be posted on the site under a new category and videos would be hosted on the RTSL YouTube channel (not simply linked to). I want the YouTube channel to start to contain much more content created by other people.
While I am talking about readers contributing, please feel free to suggest new live streaming events. In fact, I will be starting a new series soon, but I can’t say any more than that because it’s still at the planning stage.
The same goes for article or video ideas.
PP and RTSL have a history of helping new maps and mods be created via the Mapping Challenges and it’s time for some of the energy to be put into other types of content creation.

Station 60 was one of the last Resistance station created. As such it is slightly bigger and better hidden than most other stations.
Its exact location is a very closely guarded secret and even the personnel are taken their blindfolded and with a very circuitous route.
Even its purpose and objective is know to only a few high-ranking resistance leaders.
