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.
This project includes...

As we enter the month of May, we have decided to have a little competition. We are looking for a new logo design. Designs should be creative and interesting. They should, in some way, reflect the nature of the mod... but artistic license is encouraged.
Submissions will be posted on this page of the Cat-Life site and discussed in this forum thread. And we will accept new content until the 23rd of May. At that time, Team Cat-Life will choose a winner and announce the selection.
The winning logo will become the Official Cat-Life logo. It will be used as the in-game logo image. Visit the site to view current submissions and discuss the contest. Submit your entry to the thread above or send it in an email to feedback@bwl.hl2files.com
Also, Team Cat-Life is still recruiting team members. We are still looking for extra coders to help work on the hl.dll and for additional talent in voice, music, mapping, and 3D design. The more talent we find, the better the quality of the mod.
If you are interested, PM BiGToM or track him down on MSN at sayrken@hotmail.com
