Now Playing: Firearms Expert Reacts To Half-Life Franchise Guns

A demo for the mod is now available on Moddb, and it features a significant portion of the original game's Questionable Ethics level. It also includes every weapon and enemy in the original Half-Life, excluding certain bosses. The mod also supports custom maps and campaigns, with PinkyDev encouraging mappers to create their own levels to test out the mod.

Half-Life's modding scene is truly a marvel, with players adding ray tracing to the original game, recreating aspects of the game in Doom source ports, and even retro-porting its remake Black Mesa into its original engine. That's what we call recursion.
