Half-Life Havoc is a mod for Half-Life 2 centred around physics. The objective is to create a middle ground between Half-Life 2 and Garry's Mod. The idea is to take the constrained physics play present in Half-Life 2 and combine it with the lack of urgency present in Garry's Mod. You are presented with a number of premade physics games or puzzles, but each one is designed to encourage free play within the given puzzle. The mod makes use of Valve's developer commentary system so with developer commentary mode enabled you are able to hear explanations of the physics and the games. This allows you to experience the Half-Life 2 engine's physics system and explicitly consider the physics, rather than playing the game with the physics in the background.

Alpha 1 is here. There's a bit more to do, but still no commentary. That's next on the list!

Here's the alpha build. I think it has enough in it to merit being called an alpha.

 There's still the plinko game, but the platic barrel generator now makes oil drum,s which work better.  The steaming metrocop's been replaced with a bunch of junk that fallw into the water to demonstrate bouyancy. There's an EXPLOSION room! A game involving dead pants and a fun bit where you shoot glass to make stuff fall down!

 

Enjoy
