Frozen Ice

for Half-Life 2: Episode Two

A little while ago, I posted an unofficial weekend challenge. The theme was 3 states of matter: Solid, Liquid and Gas.

The idea was to try to encourage clever and interesting use of those ideas to create puzzles and situations for the player to face.

Unfortunately, only one person sent a map in and this is it.

It’s very short but offers some simple puzzles.

Freeman Escape

for Half-Life

Your objective is the F-15 hangar.

To get to it you need to pass through a number of aggressive obstacles.

Reaching the hangar is only part of the battle, getting inside also requires some thinking.

Good Luck, Freeman.

Starting in a small room, you need to work your way to the extraction point on the roof.

You will encounter plenty of Combine soldiers, and a few dropdown turrets, a hidden panel and one zombie.

Don’t worry about the screaming girl; you can’t reach her – or can you?

House Of Horrors

for Half-Life 2: Episode Two

A small map made for a competition. As you can guess from the title, it is supposed to be scary.

After starting in a small room, you make your way through a larger building.

The question is, where do you finish? The place your started?
