The mod you are trying to view has ceased development and consequently been archived. If you are a member of this mod, can demonstrate that it is being actively developed and will be able to keep this profile up to date with the latest news, images, videos and downloads, please contact us with all details and we will consider its re-activation.

An Open Window is an experimental MOD for Half-Life 2, Episode 2. In this project I will attempt to bring the concept of different realities to life in a realistic scenario. Instead of being another Shooter, AnOpWi centers around the role of the player and his/her experience, emotion and memories. By interacting with the world the player will define his own reality within the story. For this project I chose an open development cycle, which means I will update very frequently and share every step I take in the process of creating this game. Next to the regular media updates, I will also share my thoughts on the different areas of game design in the form of articles. In every article I will also ask for your opinion with the Question of the Day. This MOD also functions as a knowledge base for new and experienced designers.

An Open Window: Project Launch Day

An Open Window is a new and experimental MOD for Half-Life 2: Episode 2. I will attempt to bring the First Person Shooter to a new level of depth by taking the eqaution of "Shooter" out. Instead, this mod will be story-driven and will try to mimic emotion as well as spark the player's curiosity.

In the upcoming weeks I will actively develop this mod and the house in which the story takes place. This is where the second experimental aspect of the mod comes in. While I'm creating content I will keep this profile updated like a weblog and share everything I do. I will post screenshots, ponder about ideas and write tutorials to share with the community. Ultimatly I want to release all content to the public.

I invite you to take a peek through the Open Window.
