I had to play in the morning coz i was fighting a virus on my pc whole night and wasn't able to see anything, specially in the water. Had to finish next night, unplayable : ( . Graphically it's good, but the ending wasn't as described. 3/5 .

A short but sweet puzzle map, very nice!

Решил снова немного поиграть и сразу же вспомнил этот мод. Имхо, лучший вообще в том конкурсе, а учитывая совсем небольшой размер по игровому времени - шедеврально. Да и отдельное спасибо создателям за сюжетный твист, опять же, гениальный (да-да, вот прикиньте - там есть сюжетный твист - несмотря на совсем короткий сценарий). Это единственный спойлер, который я могу сделать:)

Рекомендую очень пройти мод!

Good map 10/10

One of the darkest mods I've ever played - Good map!

I'm having an issue where the cords won't go into their sockets.

oh sweet thanks

@VaraHunter682 Thank you, it's fixed now

Heads up: The link to download the VMF is broken

Too dark and for too long for my taste.

To follow up on my previous comment. I had to use the console to launch this map. "map little_red_star_b1c" to anyone else wondering.

Is this no longer compatible with the Necro patch? Just crashes on launch.

THX, love it :-)

Managed to play through it and I gotta to say, it was an incredible map. Layout was nice to traverse through and admire, especially with the area at Generator 3. And the puzzle/platforming was fun to do. On top of that, the ending was a nice surprise. Was not expecting that lil twist.

COOL!!

holy hell, this gave me PENUMBRA vibes. I love it so much.

I played the three winners of the contest and the two honorable mentions. This one is definitely my favorite of the five. Maybe even the best made.

Great map, you did good to keep the creepy mood, I was expecting something to happen the whole time and it really payed off at the end. I wish there was a bit more ammo for the tau cannon but it's fine.

Very good. The atmosphere was extremely creepy going to the different generators, only for it to switch to desperate action during the run for the exit. Had a lot of fun with this one. I especially liked using the Long Jump Module as a sort of key for the last area.

WHY DIDN'T THIS WIN 1ST PLACE, IT'S AMAZING

Absolutely amazing mod, the silence was more terrifying than any mangled NPC monster you couldve hobbled together. Outstanding atmosphere with a pinch of Lovecraft vibes at the end

Very nice, certainly deserved its spot.

Generator (or what is it?) are broken I solved the puzzle , it just pretends to work , but nothing really happens

Simply Amazing!
One thing, what is the ending song's name?

Great map, but for some reason the longjump doesn't work for me. Any solution?

Merde moi Le Borin

Graphics there are really amazing. But closed after several minutes. Just don't like to search something in the dark

This was such an awesome map, the silence, the darkness and the sterile abandonment of the place actually gave me chills, you even managed to tug at my thalassophobia hahah. Loved the ending and the build up to it too.

I think I only saw one headcrab, early on, but there are a lot of HEVzombs around, in fact they seem to come out of nowhere at the end... is the implication that they are a version of the player who got jumped by that crab, over and over again? If so I absolutely love it. Loved the mythos and the twist that actually, we already *were* in that other dimension, we were not trying to get to it, I suppose we had already made it in the intro, and instead we were trying to get out of that area.

really good map ngl

Ok, best mod i've ever played <3

Great cinematic feel, good atmosphere, hated the puzzles. I have no clue how I accomplished the first puzzle, I just guessed. The other puzzles are the "worst" parts of Half-Life in my opinion. Combat was neat. Standard stuff. Enjoyed it overall.

Not a big fan, was way too dark for my liking. Puzzles were neat and all, combat section was kinda boring for my tastes though.

very eerie

It's a really good map ! I love the ending !

Great map, I really liked the metroidvania layout where we ended up coming back to a central "hub" area to explore a different branch with our new gear. Only thing I'd say is missing is puzzles for the other branches but it's understandable if you didn't want to go through all that effort for a free map.

Super cool and creative!!! Just WOW !!!! Amazing in everhy way )))

This map is great. I love the atmosphere, and the puzzles are very enjoyable. It has a constant sense of looming terror, and captures an Amnesia-esque feel. The open, but pitch dark spaces have a way to make the player feel small and vulnerable.

I can't think of anything you could improve for this map, but I want to make a comment that a Gargantua chase could actually be fitting here. That's just a personal note, though.

Great job!

Wow nice job, thanks for this!

Very good I wish there was more of a story built into it, you could make a campaign for a new character off its premise.

I had a bug where I couldn't plug in the 2nd chord on the first generator, but it hit the map trigger regardless.

Awesome map, only criticism is the sound design felt a bit lacking. More ambient metal groaning and concrete cracking would have added a lot.

Great Atmosphere!
But I don't think it followed the rules..

Simple. Effective. Brilliant. Thanks for making it!

Good map, love the ending :-)

Good map, great atmosphere. Loved the puzzle @ 1 st generator and horde or zombies at the end :)

Wow! this was a great one! Man .. i ran the first part of the map i think 10 times to find that so needed crowbar! i even started the first generator by stacking boxes all over to get there

This Mod is Really Good i like the Dark Room is sooo Spooky what if you put some Jumpscare that well be Good And Scary so I made a Playthought Video on Youtube

That atmosphere attracts me so good in the end scene.

That was a sick twist!

Actually, this is my favourite map, if not one of the best that was made for halloween event. Intro and outro - beautifully made. When playing the map, I had that scary feeling of being frighten by something not knowing when :) Thank you for your effort

One little criticism I would make - while you NAILED the atmosphere and the darkness of the level in my opinion, the darkness doesn't feel so threatening because there was no underlying scariness to it. You created really interesting and cool spaces, and the darkness complemented them well, but it didn't really get under my skin at all. An example of how to potentially improve this would be if, for example, I felt something was watching me throughout the level (assassins?). Or there were occasional weird noises. Or mysterious corpses. Or just...something. The perfect emptiness of it all can work too, but only for so long. I think the map would have benefitted from utilising its theme a bit better, in this regard.

I think you had a lot of creative ideas on this one, and it worked really well. Excellent effort!
