The Way

Half-Life 2 mod | Released Jun 1, 2007

The Way is a cool HL2 mod that was created in one month by a group of Danish students. It is a small mod but we hope you will enjoy our efforts nonetheless. The mod can be played with an Xbox 360 controller or a mouse. Rotate the mouse/thumbstick clockwise to charge up your weapon. Get close to the pillars and release the energy of your weapon upon them. Destroy all pillars in less than three minutes to stop the World Eater from taking over!

The Way is a "one month only" production that we have done through the month of May. You play as a bard on a quest to defeat an evil god rising from below. your only defence is your musical instrument that can create powerful waves of sound.

This mod can be considered a prototype because it was meant as a gameplay test for the instrument that the bard uses to destroy four pillars in the level. You can rotate your mouse to use the instrument but an Xbox 360 controller is a bit better, but also harder. Press F1 ingame for full instructions.

The work on the mod has ended, so it can be considered finished, but it is not without bugs. If you get caught in a pillar you may need to restart the level by pressing 'p'. A few animations can be jumpy at times too.

We hope you enjoy our mod! Find it here.

for a months work its pretty good. the animations could do with being smoothed out and some instructions ingame of how to play, but apart from thats its pretty good.

controls are too complicated.. rotating the right stick SIXTEEN times just to build up acharge is ridiculous, if you miss you have to start over again.

Good concept, though.

Sinistar: You don't HAVE to rotate 16 times. You can rotate up to 16 times, so it is actually quite easy if you don't want to fire the most powerful soundwave.
