Half-Quake Sunrise

for Half-Life

Single Player First Person Shooter Maps and Mods for Half-Life 1, 2 and Episodes 1, 2 and 3

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.

Half-Quake: Amen: The Present

for Half-Life

Single Player First Person Shooter Maps and Mods for Half-Life 1, 2 and Episodes 1, 2 and 3

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.”

Alternative Way Part 1

for Half-Life

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!

Half-Quake Amen

for Half-Life

Single Player First Person Shooter Maps and Mods for Half-Life 1, 2 and Episodes 1, 2 and 3

You live your everyday life. Work, family, house, children – whatever.

But one day you get caught in an absolutely dark, surrealistic and sadistic world called Halfquake. Is it an institution?

Is it on earth? Noone seems to care about you, your pain and your life. Forget your past, it’s gone forever. Just pray it won’t be too sadistic.

Amen.

Half-Quake

The player has made a mistake in the past and has to face the consequences now (suffering).

The punishment comes to the player in 4 parts and one additional final part.

This is like nothing you have ever played before.

HalloweenVille

for Half-Life 2: Episode Two

Enjoy being scared? This mapping competition challenged mappers to make a scary scene. No combat was required but allowed.

There are 5 entries in this mappack. The maps can be played in any order. I have listed them in the order I received them.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank Alex from JustMakeGames for providing the motivation to run the competition and TheHappyCloud for providing the prize.

In addition, I would like to thank all the entrants. GREAT WORKS GUYS!

Don’t forget to play late at night with all the lights out!
