So I'm working on this hardcore mod based on the pre-releases of Half Life and I'm wondering.... is there a way to implement a Limited save system similar to Hard-life or Starlight. I know its possible I just don't know how.

You may begin by editing the VGUI resource files to e.g. remove the save button. You may also unbind the keys for that stuff.
But ultimately players could just type save into the console and work around it, it's an engine-side console command. I'm not sure how to work around that, probably some very ugly hack.

There is an old mod called "Riot in Progress" which has a save gem system. You collect three gems, you can save three times for example. Maybe some of the more engine-savvy people can check how that works?
