Author’s Note: Three-Legged Terror occurs as a side story during the events of Half-Life 2:Episode 2. The player assumes the role of a basic Resistance member, hidden away in an isolated mountain base with a small team of soldiers. This base is discovered by the Combine, who send a Strider to destroy the base. Gameplay revolves weakening and damaging the Strider throughout the map as it ascends the mountain trail, giving your NPC allies time to fix weapons and provide aid. The idea was inspired by Capcom’s Monster Hunter series, in particular the Lao-Shan Lung and Shen Gaoren fights. All three maps, mine and Monster Hunter’s, feature a massive enemy that must be weakened and defeated before it destroys the player’s base.

Black Death is a single-player Half-Life 2: Episode Two level that deviates from the original gameplay.

The new crossbow confuses enemies into attacking the victims rather than killing them. Outmanned, he must adapt to his new environment and find the balance between crowbar and crossbow.

Starting in a stairway and corridor, you just have to slowly work your way through the building.

Beware though, alien enemies are constantly appearing and making you life difficult and those army grunts aren’t too friendly either!

Can you reach the outside?

Jose Reynolds, a journalist, for the “Santa Fe Times” in New Mexico, obtains interesting information from his sources, that a few hours ago, not far from “Route 66″, strange animals were found dead.

Without hesitation, he left the office and hit the road, riding the highway, and after some time came across one of these…

You find yourself on a cliff slope, looking up at a kinda of penthouse.

You have no choice but to enter and seek escape via the lift and tram.

But the owner of the penthouse has other ideas and seems to be working with an old friend.

You start as a worker on a fuel line, fixing some pipes, working on some kinks; you know that type of stuff. When the next thing you know, a rival company has hired a small ‘faction’ of troops to come in and collect the data from the mainframe(s). Your objective is to stop them using whatever means necessary! Even if it means destroying the mainframe! You can’t let this data leak!

“After accepting the offer of the administrator you have been sent to investigate why a science team that has failed to return from a routine “Anomolous Creature” collection mission, they have also failed to radio in a report.
The helicopter is still operational but the science equipment is disrupting further satellite observations. Your orders are to investigate and remedy any problem found, evac will be sent as soon as you complete the mission.

Postion:Arizona 4 miles west of Area 51.”

You play a Russian scientist, Ravil Unisovich, who unwittingly unleashes a plague of monsters after an unsuccessful experiment.

Sound familiar?

In this, the first of 4 mods, you simiply need to escape the research facility, where you started everything.

You start in what looks like Black Mesa but things get a little strange after that.

Your objective is to stay alive and reach the Hall of Mirrors doorway seen in the last screenshot.

Good luck

Finding yourself within the catacombs you decide to look for a way out (As if you had any other choice!)

The way is perilous and Indiana Jones could be around the next corner!

Don’t be afraid of the dark corners, only your fear limits you.

You find yourself on a spaceship, which seems to be researching Xen lifeforms.

Follow the clues to a spot on the ship and then ignore the sign.

At this point things turn fun!

Are you fast and smart enough to escape? Only time will tell….

You find yourself outside a building and you seemed to have swapped your scientist status for a shotgun and “Sargeant” tag.

Explore the building, if you dare, and ignore the strange visions. Chasing the ghost scientist might not always bring dividends though.

An old friend brings your nightmare to a close.

Overheid tells the story of Chris Winfield, a new recruit in humanity’s fight against the Combine.

The story unfolds across multiple locations, from the fringes of society to the very heart of the Combine beast.

This map was originally made for a competiton in 11 days. It features an outdoor area with some new models and a couple of Combine Batttles

The final “boss” battle will have you running and jumping for your life!

Author’s Notes: “In this custom single player level for Half-Life 2, Gordon Freeman has been sent to a city that has been taken over by Combine hostiles. He must eliminate all enemy threats and rescue the remaining civilians.

This map was produced for my Final Major Project at University. The look of the map was inspired by the modern architectural styles of the United Arab Emirates.”

The mod is about a digger who is looking for an old shelter and on his search stumbles upon a secret base where everything has gone crazy. He soon realizes that he must destroy the base and the strange object that has caused all this trouble.

You find yourself on a ship heading towards a small dock.

A Combine Gunship is shadowing your every move and the only thing to do is enter the barrel facility and escape using whatever means you can (conveniently) find.

A simple puzzle mod, with a little action and a brand new gameplay mechanic.

You wake up and find your cell door open. Do you sit quietly and wait for a guard or do you try and escape? Hell! What kind of stupid question is that? GET THE HELL OUT OF THERE!

Of course, it’s not as simple as finding a key and walking out into the bright sunshine.

Good Luck.

This map was originally made for HL2 Deathmatch but due to its nature it is possible to play it in Half-Life 2 or even Garry’s Mod.

It takes place in a drydock and the player has the ability to start certain physics effects.

It can be a resource hog, although being a few years old now most players shouldn’t have much trouble running it.

“Ghost In The Machine is an experiment in gameplay scripting that allows the player to modify their environment by “hacking” into the security system of a Combine citadel.”

You play a soldier working their way through the Black Mesa Research facility at the same time as Adrian Shepard.

Escape the prison and join your brother in the fight against the Combine.

A beta release, where you need to escape from a prison surrounded by ice and snow.

A short demo of what now appears to be a defunct Half-Life 2 mod. You play a short section through a Combine train.
