You have just escaped from a mental institution. You’re on the run. The sun is shining, the birds are singing. You are jumping happily from cloud to cloud. You know that the only way to freedom is by reaching the ship at the end of the level. A cute bunny is jumping towards you, blocking your path. By pushing a button the whole world flips around and shows its dark side. The bunny is now an evil nurse who is trying to stop you from getting away. You headbutt her, clearing your path. With a push of the button the world flips back and shows its light side again.

It has been almost two weeks since FLIPSIDE was presented in public for the first time after a month of intensive development. With the creation of our new website we decided it was time to spread the word and share the joy of FLIPSIDE with the world.
In FLIPSIDE the player takes on the identity of a mental patient with extreme mood changes who is planning his escape from the insane asylum in which he is being held. The imaginary escape through the landscape surrounding the insane asylum will bring him to safety on the ship from the people who want to take him back to the asylum.
The escape takes place in a world put together from cardboard pieces and jumping jacks decorated with magazine cuttings, stickers and other. Those objects come alive in his mind as he fantasizes about the obstacles he will face and how to defeat them.
With FLIPSIDE we attempted to beat Source into submission in order to make real a game world that was designed to try something different from what we have become used to with most games out there.

I'll go out on a limb and say that this is one of the greatest mods that I've ever played. Not exactly something that I would expect to come from the Source engine, but engaging nonetheless. Only real problems are the shortness and the difficulty in killing the bees, but I think I may have perfected the jump headbutt :D.
Hey you guys - I just looked in the sound folder to find the intro theme (very nice by the way) and I found a sound file called speak_player_easter_egg.wav in this directory:
...Steam\SteamApps\SourceMods\T3Mod\sound\speak\plot
Find it! :D
I find it very annoying you seem to restart the entire game from the start each time you die, otherwise very novel and interesting.
Cool gfx and that idea to flip the side to get through the level is genious. However, it's annoying to restart all over again when killed but a bee. Is there any way to load a saved game?
hehe .. the main character may remind some of you of Hannibal hildorf, but in reality he is just features because he is the voice actor on the game :)
He did a great job though - this being very alien to his other work I am impressed with his ability to adapt. Even chosing to help us out with a project like this was a great experience for all of us.
Lol Hannible Hildorf? Any relation to Hannible Lecter? Just in case I would refrain from giving crazy hannible your home adress :D wierd crazy Danish website :D
I love this game it´s very cool!Keep going guys!
wow this weird like some kinda of a Mario but really weird.
ill drink liqueur before i play this game
It was way too short.But it was good.
This game is awesome. Very original, and very fun. The only problem I have with it are those bee's :O, I can't ever kill them. This game is awesome though, and I look forward to beating it.
