For someone that has dealt with modding Mirror's Edge Catalyst for years, and knows every asset like the back of their hand, it is a surprise to me how MANY assets from that game were used (both visually and audibly) in the mod.
The game is enjoyable for me.But,the new ammo update kind of too rough for me.Just two cent tho.If low ammo for the hardest difficulty it would be more sensible.
There's low ammo only in the first chapter I believe (from the feedback I got). The rest should be pretty smooth. I will fix the first chapter ammo in the next update (1.2 is in progress).
The main ammo pool also should be at least back to normal.Its ok enough for me because its not too extravagant like CoD.For weapons roster it safe to say Five Seven/M4 feels redundant.All the explosive has their tactical usage fullfilled.
[UPDATE] I tried to download from https://itch.io/ instead, also from another browser (Chrome instead of Edge), and now the download completed.
Hello. The game will not complete the download; it freezes in the download folder as "unconfirmed download" with the size of 2099256 kB. I've tried twice, but same thing happens. Do you know what can cause this?
I don't know. Might be something with the browser or antivirus flagging it for some reason. Press CTRL+J in your browser and check the download status.
Yes, that sounds very possible, but as I wrote in the update, it worked out. :-). Thank you for the reply and for this great game. I played a couple of hours last evening, and I love this. So nostalgic, and that HL-sound is so great, feels like a new Half-Life-story, my absolute favorite franchise.
Dude, your game is simply amazing. As a Half-Life fan, I can say I had just as much fun as with the originals. The level design was incredible—I even piloted a drone, lol! The only thing I missed was Spanish subtitles since my English isn't great. Other than that, it's a 10/10.
Awesome game, it's my new favourite Half-Life mod! I know you are working on the next update, so I wanted to offer my voice (British English) to the project. I don't have any VA experience, but I'd love to help.
Hey, thank you for the kind words and your offer, right now I have all necessary actors gathered (except one female for a couple small roles). The voiceover is 80% done
Just finished the game — what an achievement! It feels like a 10/10 shooter from around 2004, and yet it was made by a solo developer. Great pacing, level design, lots of different set pieces to change the gameplay from time to time, no crashes at all, and it's a very gorgeous game to look at!
I'll be here for version 1.1 and real voice acting!
what the hell! its really amazing! Totally HL vibes. I'cant believe that it was made in solo. Quality\gameplay\sound - 10\10. How long it takes to develop it?
Охерел, когда узнал что в финальных титрах что однофамилец сделал это все. надеюсь, мы дальние родственники. Ты хорош. Впрочем охерел я от всего. С большим удовольствием прошел, вообще ни одного нарекания нет. Это прям очень крутой мод. Играется потрясающе. Финал бился несколько дней. Дизайн уровней потрясающий. Головоломки реально ломали голову в какой то момент (угорел на лазерах с таймером в конце). В общем не жалею. Ты хорош. Аплодирую твоей выдержке довести таких масштабов проект до конца в одну каску.
For English readers - if you read it, I highly recommend this game. It's a great legacy of the classic Half-Life, and the great standalone shooter with pretty well old-fashioned level-design, developed by a single man. It takes a few days to complete the game, but it's a greatest shooter on Itch I suppose.
I’ve just finished Chapter 1, and so far this is fantastic! The graphics and level design are excellent, but so are the writing and the pacing. It’s very, very polished for a 1.0 release, and I’m excited to see the rest of the game!
I can compile it for 32-bit, but I can't guarantee it would work with no issues. For a few years now, I moved to 64-bit entirely and 32-bit was not tested.
yeah man, i played the whole thing and you'll be impressed with how much there actually is! i know there was atleast 1 secret in the game i found. i wonder how many more there are...
The voices are being recorded, they are also native speakers so I hope it will be better this time. The 1.1 update should be released some time in january
I'm making a 3 Part Series for this game that took me 12 hours to beat. I really needed a game like this. I loved the old half life games and this game is like a breath of fresh air using an old engine
PART[2]
Timestamp 1:30:50 was like the movie Edge Of Tomorrow lmao
Thanks! I'm slowly preparing the 1.1 update which will involve new voiceover (by real people), some combat fixes, gameplay reworks, new areas and so on.
Thanks! I been working on it slowly since around 2014 or so... Took my time cause no deadlines :P
Was it really hard on easy difficulty? Maybe the last boss, but with a drone and a turret, plus sniper rifle he's quite easy I think. It's hard to figure those things out...
I enjoyed this game.It exploded the potential of a modified version of an old engine like GoldSrc (the original Half Life). Most features from Source Engine (Half Life 2) are partially integrated into, giving me a "what-if Half Life 2 was made into the same engine as the first one, instead of creating a new engine?" feeling (not to mention some elements from the 'Portal' videogame). And all of it in less than 2GB? Awesome! Nothing else to say than I'm impressed. Good work!
By the way: I managed to make the game playable with gamepad. It's working very fine, even on vehicles. If you're interested, I'll share the configs to you.
I normally don't comment at all but I had to make this an exception because I just needed to express how absolutely awesome this is, by far one of the most impressive things to ever come out of the goldsource engine and a really solid gameplay experience to boot. I'm also really glad that this is put on itch as well so that even people who don't own/never played half-life can still experience and enjoy this technical marvel. My only gripe would have to be the inclusion of AI voice acting, but this is merely a minor nitpick and hardly subtracts from the overall experience. Honestly cannot wait to finish this mod, its clear from everything that this came from a place of passion, 10/10.
I Was waiting for this game to came out since i discovered it like 2 years ago. And i need to say: this is one of the best free singleplayer fps aviable! modified half-life engine is squeezed to its limits, its so goddamn beautiful! very fun experience!I didn't encounter any bugs throughout my entire playthrough. It was worth the wait! Im impressed...

Great game! Incredible work you done :-)
Thanks!

Yep I did use them.
Sharp eye! I love that game too much :)

Nice to hear, enjoy!
Thanks, I'm glad you like it! :)
How to install on steam deck?
Unfortunately I can't help with this, I don't have it.
It runs on linux though, can you get someone with a steam deck to figure this out?
Awesome game, it's my new favourite Half-Life mod!

Hi, I've making it at slow pace since 2014 or so. But much more actively since 2020. Thank you for playing :)

Привет, спасибо! Я очень рад это читать :) С обновлением будет еще чуть лучше, буду поддерживать проект

Can this be made to work on Xash3D 32bit?
I can compile it for 32-bit, but I can't guarantee it would work with no issues. For a few years now, I moved to 64-bit entirely and 32-bit was not tested.
If it's not too much trouble, I'd greatly appreciate it.
For whatever reason, I was never able to run the 64 bit version of Xash3D on my computer.
I had to make a YT Short with some silly banter with Alice Nakayama
this game is fantastic, i just wish the voices weren't all ai, plus the poor translations hinder it a bit
but if the translations were fixed and the voices replaced with real people, i think this could actually be an absolutely excellent game
i've only just barely finished chapter 1, and damn, there's 5 of these? genuinely crazy how much game there is here haha
yeah man, i played the whole thing and you'll be impressed with how much there actually is! i know there was atleast 1 secret in the game i found. i wonder how many more there are...
The voices are being recorded, they are also native speakers so I hope it will be better this time. The 1.1 update should be released some time in january
Awesome! Thanks for the update!
that's great to hear! definitely going to be looking into that when it comes out

Niice! I was fine with the AI voices, but I know a lot of people will be very happy about real voice actors.
awesome work !
Alice likes to scan the player
this is so good! how many chapters are there? i just started the 3rd one. i am enjoying this game, the levels you built, and story so much! <3 <3
i'll be returning with my full playthrough video soon. thanks so much for making this!
There are 5 chapters. Glad you like it so far!
i beat it, and dang that was hard lol! i cant believe there's 2 more difficulties. i loved it. i found that bar and had a few drinks lmao
took me around 12 hours to finish. i can tell a lot of work went into this.
Thanks! I been working on it slowly since around 2014 or so... Took my time cause no deadlines :P
Was it really hard on easy difficulty? Maybe the last boss, but with a drone and a turret, plus sniper rifle he's quite easy I think. It's hard to figure those things out...
oh yeah i should've used the turret. i kept forgetting to use them for distraction and support fire. i used the drone.
it was a lot of fun and i was still able to beat it. i think im just not very good at the game lol!
EDIT: i also found the 'Wild Crabby' that appears on the horizon hahaha
Haha nice! Not many people find it

There you go! Just write me again if you or anybody else have troubles with these.

AI voice acting will be replaced. I found a few people to record the lines after the release got widely shared. Thank you for the feedback
