My Source Mod

[Boxinatorizore]

I am currently working on a HL2 mod. It is planned to be a platformer in which you can switch between 3rd and 1st person. There will be no direct combat and the over all feel of the game is intended to be light and humorous.

The Plot - You were a mis-manufactured that was put in the bad robot chute because you had a drum machine for a head. So you go on a quest to be able to speak like all the other robots instead of speaking in John Bonham solos. You get your robot beep-boop speaker thingy and are then sent on a quest to prevent the grey spectrum from leaking into the world.

There will be no actual speech, just the various Beep-boops of robots and your crazy drum face. All the player models will be custom. There will be small puzzle elements but mainly straight up platforming. I'm also making a whole batch of custom textures that are essentially just solid colors.

Tell me what you think i guess.

EDIT: Anyone know how to display an image from your hard drive and not from the internet?
EDIT: I really made this mod sound terrible in the description... oh well. When it comes out 80% it won't suck.
EDIT: I think you won't get a voice thing, i think you'll go to a guy who's kinda like the wizard of oz who's all like you could do it all along... just kidding, ha sucks for you drum face.
EDIT:I really want to but in a bonus level where at the beginning some just pops up and tells you- The commys stole your bacon! Go get it back!
EDIT:I need to stop editing when i really could just reply to the thread.
EDIT: This is the last time i edit. NO STEALING!

Ya i didn't describe it well.

I like it, because it sounds like a return to old-school gaming (Like plumbers who stomped on walking mushrooms and turtles to save a princess from a dragon) with a kind of 'wacky' theme.

Ya me and my friends are doing something simple and fun for a first mod. Then we'll move to more serious stuff. We have 3 other game/mods cycling around as well. 2 single players and then we want to try and tackle a multilayer.

Post this mod, I'll give it a look. Who knows, if it's good enough, you could get it published on Garry's Mod and various other sites. I'd tell you to put a Nirvana soundtrack in, but I don't want you to be put into the shit tsunami that is Courtney Love.

It probably won't be done for a while, have to make all the maps, custom models, and a bit of custom code. Were trying to focus on quality rather than shit bricks out as fast as you can. Right now the mod is really only in it's infancy.

Care to return to Gamespot?

OT: Sounds like a very interesting Mod, OP. I'd like to see how the first/third person switches will come out.

Me too lol. I want to try to make it essential to the game and have some strategic value instead of a useless feature. Don't know exactly how yet but I'll have it all figured out in time.

Doesn't sound bad, just kind of depends on what you actually DO during the game.
