RECENT ANNOUNCEMENTS

A Challenge Awaits!

17 November, 2016 - Roflmahwafflz | 0 Comments

What new adventure lies in store?

A challenging one...

The most recent flavor of campaign/map. Make a map or campaign for L4D1 or L4D2 centered around challenge beyond typical zombies and tanks.

-Create a map or campaign with overwhelming elements from any of the following catergories:

-Boss
-Traps
-Puzzles
-Mazes
-Platforming

If going for a boss, having a boss is simply enough so long as it isnt too easy.

If going for traps, make them present throughout the map.

If going for puzzles, make them more challenging than "go here, press this button"

If going for mazes... have fun???

If going for platforming, center the campaign around platforming.

Feel free to mix any of these topics or ideas using your creative willpower, having to platform through a trap-filled maze while a dragon flies around scorching you? sounds like fun!

If I didnt list anything that you think adds a challenge, feel free.

-Disqualifications: doing nothing but adding ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ of zombies/tanks/witches, thats not really fun, or challenging.
(feel free to add zombies, tanks, and witches though >:D)

This is your chance to be a ♥♥♥♥ and get recognition for it!

Godot is a good engine from what I know; I myself lost all of my files a few computers ago so all of my stuff is new

I "might" be down~
I make no promises, but I do regret never finishing "Blood Money"... I was actually really proud of that one. Even if I come back only to finish one of the like 20 projects I left abandoned...

Except Haunting Grounds... I plan on making that a stand alone game once I actually learn Godot~

Out of curiosity...
Is there still life in this old group of ours?

Been having a weird craving to come back to this game and mod again... Need to dust off the old pc and grab some old programs and files and what not...
Was thinking of having another event for old time sakes, but before I shout into an empty room I wanted to know if there would be any interest in another one.

Ve vish you nozing but ze best... And hang in zere... Hammer is like untammed horse vielding baseball bat... She vill hit you hard, and steal your vallet and buy diamond embossed shoes she can't even vear...
But is quite revarding if you van manage to tame her...

Good luck~
Going to be trying to tame Unity myself... First one to release vorkable prototype get's to keep hammer's debts~

But in all seriousness... good luck and hopefully it vill treat you vell...

Thankss for your answers ,in the good faith I will continue and contribute to this awesome community that is living and breathing to this day. More then 10 years of good memories went into this game and surprisingly there are still souls willing to contribute like myself ,I might be a starter with the whole mapping and modding in source but I cannot lie ,it is fun and highly adictive once you figure you are actually making progress. I know lots of people actually like how combine design looks in hl2 ,so I set my goals to trying to recreate something that would give a player high nostalgia and that feel of our first time playing trough citadel. This might not be fully legitimate to the real citadel design ,but it will surely feel like past. Hopefully someone will reckon the potential of those combine textures and what great effect they can have when put well together ,I still have not seen it in top rated maps today. stay safe all and take care ,thesedays are dangerous
