Fodderstompf DoorVille

for Half-Life 2: Episode Two

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

Here is a map that was made for the DoorVille competition but has only just been sent to me.

It starts in the train station of City 17 and takes you on a slightly different route.

The first part is pretty hard but a fun challenge nevertheless.

Apparently, there was much more but the author felt it was not up to the same quality and was cut.

Lost World

for Half-Life

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

You start at the top of a shaft, with no other way to go except down.

Clearly the only thing to do is find an escape route.

Work slowly and methodically, as your path is not always clear.

Dooleus Antlion Survival

for Half-Life 2

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

You’ve got plenty of ammo, health, suit power and weapons.
That’s the good news.
The bad news is that there are plenty of antlions, Combine soldiers and dropships.
How many enemies can you kill and how long can you stay alive?

Warehouse

for Half-Life 2: Episode One

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

A very simple premise: Kill all the enemies…if possible. I tried and died too many times to lie about. Good luck. There’s no story and after killing all the enemies nothing happens, don’t expect anything other than a warehouse with a LOT of zombies etc. Don’t bother playing if you enjoy something more detailed. Arena map lovers only!
