I began mod a long time ago, in the end of 2008 year. I want to create the game with own content and (more or less) realistic gameplay. What this mean?
1. You can't carry a lot of stuff with you. Only few weapons, keys and other little things.
2. There is no HUD. If you want check ammo you must pull out clip and count ammo. If a lot of blood on screen - you heart. (Also I wanted make bleeding but I refuse this idea)
3. There is no ammo and weapons just scattered on the level. You will use what you can find - sticks, pipes etc. If you want real gun than search very hard
4. Nonlinear game. Go where you want.
5. Enemy can easly kill you - keep your health high.
It will not big game - just 2 levels (and first is very small), about 2 hours of gameplay. Of course I can easly stretch the levels and add more streets and houses, BUT! I want a high saturation in game, almost in every room you can find some interesting things, just be more attentively.
There are few ways to go through game. You can try killl enemies or avoid them or use special events (for example close monster in room or kill him with brutal way). Even quests sometimes has 2 ways.
Endings depends from many parameters. How many informatuion you'll find, how strong you want save sister, even how you kill monsters etc. The plot not so original but I hope it'll be interesting.
It looks very interesting. I am genuinely looking forward to this mod.
