Iris
Half-Life 2 mod | Released Nov 7, 2006
Iris is a prototype that only exists to demonstrate a specific game concept. There hasn't been a lot of optimization and polishing, so please be gentle :)
What is this game?
The game is an adventure game in which you control a woman in a world where something is totally wrong. Our heroine has a special ability that allows her to jump back to her childhood. In order to solve the main mystery you will have to explore this special ability to solve a number of puzzles.
Why create this game?
There was a time when adventure games ruled the PC market. As computer hardware was improved more action-oriented games were released and today the amount of new adventure games on the market is extremely low. This genre has brought lots and lots of hours of fun to almost everyone playing PC games in the 1990's and we find it unlikely that the current generation of gamers is so different from our generation that they won't get fascinated by an adventure game that doesn't have the 'action' prefix.
What do I control?
You control the heroine who is called Iris. You can freely switch between the present (2024) and the past (2006). When you are playing in the past the present will be on pause and vice versa. You will be able to move around the environment, pick up items, use/combine items, speak to people and give items to people. You play Iris in her present and past, so you don’t travel between the past and the present in such a manor that you can bring items from one time to the other.
Where does the game take place?
The game takes place in a fictional 'Chinatown' in the year 2006 and 2024. Our part of Chinatown consists of a little street with a couple of houses and a small square in the middle. In 2006 the sun is shining, the birds are singing and everything is in extreme harmony. In 2024 it's raining a lot, dark clouds are hanging over the city.
Enjoy!

This was a very fun mod but i got stuck in both times in the biginning and it's easy to get styck offen that's annoing so 8/10 but keep it upp it was great to play tho
is this RPG?
you fail at reading the describtion.
Kill me or not but i smell Beyond Good & Evil inspiration in this mod...
hi,
i love the idea also however in the past and present words the area where you find the ball has a fence that is too high i cannot get down and am stuck in both time periods and cannot continue
Again, we're really happy that so many like our prototype. On the other side it has become clear that we haven't been communicating clearly enough, and that has lead to some confusion and disappointment. We sincerely apologize.
We, the dev team, are a bunch of students from various Danish universities and art schools that, parallel to our ordinary studies, have joined a game academy. Once a year we get together, sit down for a month straight and work our butts off creating a prototype. We get feedback from industry professionals and then we all head back to our universities untill next year.
The goal has never been to develop an entire game, but only to learn from the process of demonstrating our ideas and abilities. Most of us are about to finish our masters studies and then we will try to make a living from developing computer games. Some will end up in established companies, others will start something on their own and the rest will probably continue to work with games as a hobby.
Handing over rights to another team might be possible, but certainly tricky. We are 13 people that somehow share the IP. The actual code and content is property of the academy. However, if someone out there sincerely wants to take Iris further, please contact me. On Tomsweb.dk there is a mail form.

Hey, just played your mod, and it is absolutely wonderful. Please keep this mod going! I'm gonna watch this mod!
Wow, that is a download for sure.
I like the cartoon style though. ^^
You have a great idea here, why drop it?
Or, if you insist on dropping it, perhaps release the code and anything else we might need to make our own mods, that would have a longer life expentancy...
nothing bad about the mod
but everything i with this mod just seems lacy
you get an idea - a great idea
put a small amount of effort in it, and then just hope somebody else does the rest?
no offence, but are you kidding me?
the mod konsists of a five minnute story, a one hour buggy map, and perhaps a lot of code?
i dont know, iv'e never done a third person game
so sorry, but this mod is rubbish. how you ever got a rating over 3 is something i will never understand.
even its so original.
