Surface Run

for Half-Life

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

The scenario is simple: Save your own skin and get to the surface.

Based in Black Mesa, you get to see a small part of the underground facility and even a quick trip to Xen, if you look in the right place.

Dark Intervention

for Half-Life 2: Episode Two

A town close to yours has been shelled a while ago. The Combine have settled there, with a small base. Such a small base doesn’t seem harmful, but you think something else is going on.

Led by curiosity, you make your way into the town…

This is my first map so any feedback is appreciated.

Many thanks to Strontvlieg, Lyren and Spoops for playtesting.

LC by Slux

Starting in a small warehouse, you must use the large elevator to descend the lower levels.

Stopping at each one to extract any useful equipment and kill the soldiers.

The last one has a small surprise. Good Luck!

Hard Hat Required

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

Author’s Note: “Hard Hat Required is a Half-Life 2: Ep2 level focused on novel environmental hazards, extensive non-structural BSP use to make up for a lack of usable meshes, and re-use of space.

It was created over six weeks with no modified code allowed, and is my first level in the Hammer Editor.”

Spitmouse

for Half-Life 2

Collect your suit and some supplies, watch Alyx kill a zombie and start your journey into weirdness.

This is a nightmare and everywhere you look something is trying to kill you, even your supposed friends.

At one point is a leap of faith. Sometimes it’s better to have no faith.
