Brendanmint's Space Adventure Part 1

Hells yeah, downloading! =P

Love the gravity! I didn't know it affected physboxes and prop_physics!

Love it!

Gameplay is just as fun as i remember it, I really like the effects on the bridge, very eerie and believable!

I realize it's unfinished, but this map really does have some major flaws other than the texture use and other problems you've talked about.

The levels are really, really dark. All of the lighting is from the red emergency lights with no contrast, and they leave the levels looking completely dark.

When I got to the armory, I heard the comm system tell me that I needed to get some guns and get some armor, but I couldn't find any armor. I had no idea where the suit was, if there was one in the first place, even, and I would assume I didn't find it because of how incredibly dark the map was. The map shouldn't have let me continue on without first picking up the suit.

And I had just picked up grenades, too, so I basically had to use all of them before I could get to using a gun. This led to a very unpleasant adventure through the deck, because without a suit, gunshots do way more impact on your screen and cover it with blood. This mixed with the dark environments made most of my game look like this.

I couldn't play this on hard mode, I had to lower my difficulty down to medium because I couldn't make it past the halls after the tram ride.

Though the gravity is really cool, and I like the premise of being on the Combine's side fighting the rebels. I'll be waiting for the remake!

Dear god that screenie, no clue why it looks like that, never looked like that me at all. Anyways so far the remake is going alright, I have the Barracks finished up, and I just need to retouch the lighting a bit in the Armory, both are less ugly. And there is more direction to it, adding in another area you have to explore before getting into the armory, to find a key card, so that's what I'll be working on as soon as I get around to it. Comicon and Attack on Titan are eating up all my time this weekend. IT'll happen though.

Some wip sceens, just took the pics in game and copied from Steam to my Dropbox.
Minor Details are what I like to waste time on:https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/28045253/Maps/2014-06-04_00002.jpg

One of the hallways, door needs to be fixed currently: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/28045253/Maps/2014-06-07_00002.jpg

So yeah, lighting needs to be tweaked, and I forgot to disable shadows and stuff on some things that don't need it. Progress is coming along.

Hahaha! Your definition of 'amazing' is hopelessly flawed!

I had no idea you'd released this 'til I watched your video about the revamped version. If you want me to redo the lines to be less abysmal, do let me know! Importantly I have my own place now, so I can actually project my voice.

Revamped version is looking neat! Lighting is a bit bland so far, but it's early days and already shows a lot of promise.
Can't wait to play it :3

Maybe it's an American thing, whenever I hear an accent from over there it's like meeting someone famous, "You....You're not from round here, are ya?".

I'm not to worried about the lines, I really don't know what else I Would want/how I would want them to sound, the ones I have I've been able to fit in.

And yea, out of everything lighting has never been my strongest skill while mapping, I'm just really bad at it. The whole project is mainly just me trying to get back into mapping in Hammer and what not, and my love for science fiction.

The download died. Could you fix it please, Brendan?
