Cat Life
Half-Life mod | TBD
Black Mesa, New Mexico...
With regular system crashes and over-driven equipment, a disaster must have been inevitable.Deep within the tunnels and carved corridors of the top secret research complex within the mesa itself, the catalyst was introduced.
When your only companion (indeed your best and only friend of this piddling existence) suffered from an untimely death, you couldn't help but feel lost and vulnerable. And when you stumbled into a series of strange and unnatural incidents, you soon realized that no one cared about YOUR life. No one would take the time to befriend you... to help you... to save you.
People were dieing.And your best friend was one of many victims.You were forced to survive alone.To live by any means necessary.And to do it your way.
Of course, it didn't help that you were born a cat.
Cat-Life is an original concept for Half-Life and the GoldSource engine.Players will experience the Black Mesa incident from the view of a stranded pet cat.
Using claws and teeth and the natural prowess of a cat, players will travel through the bowels of Black Mesa.Xenian beasts roam the corridors and laboratories and... surprise... cats are conveniently bite-sized for those in-between-meal munchies.

Six new chapters

Something new and interesting... Awaiting for a release! =)
I love the music in the video for this, it's perfect. It's like this dark sinister evil cat prowling music, lol. well done.
i love cats :)
sounds good 2 me, but hey, just a question, before you release, give details on the story line, im guessing the cat is Gordon's or someones cat, ooh how about Barney? Since in half-life 2 they put the cat in the teleporter and Barney still feared what happened...(doesn't let you see, they just talk about it)but hell, ill play, and btw ne multiplayer planed?
The original premise was that the cat was owned by a scientist who brought it to work. The cat was actually the incarnation of Hitler, Jesus, and a bunch of other famous/infamous people in one. And "you have plans for world domination, but there's just one problem: you're a cat."
I can't remember much else, it was a long time ago.
Actually, that wasn't the original premise. The original premise was a scientist-cat hybrid created in Black Mesa. Then a cat who was the pet of a scientist. Then the less popular Hitler-Jesus cat. Then back to the pet of a scientist.
Some time back, I posted an artical about the history of this mod on our group page.
Here is the article -- Moddb.com
Hey.
I've been tracking this mod and, after reviewing everything, I think it's great. I wanted, or rather, still do, to join, though I can only map, however poorly, and I have no reference work.
But that is not why I am comment; the reason why I am commenting, is because, as far as I can tell, you are still able to map. Are you experiencing the Hammer bug? The 3D view had become useless to me in Hammer (other than moving the camera around the place). I can't select anything and it's making it difficult to work.
Someone has posted somewhere about this, and my friend has claimed he has this bug as well, so I know I am not the only one. I just want to know, is there something different about your Hammer(s), or are you experiencing it but working past it?
Thanks.
omg for a kitteh lover like me...
this make me SOO HAPPY!!
i r kitteh lord
I like cats!
cats r truleh awsoem. Would like this in Source Engine tho :P
