That's right, come crawling back. What? Found out that casual gamers are fickle and have the attention span of a retarded goldfish? My my, if only someone other than every core gamer out there could have predicted such a mishap. Here's a blanket, you can tell us all about it while you get back to making real games, bitch.

A little on the short side, but overall a pleasant experience. It's hard to say much without giving away some of the key plot points, but the dynamic soundtrack and environment are pretty cleverly pieced together. Would definitely recommend for its current price.
Short, but fun experience. Mapping is pretty alright, looked about as good as it could have given the graphical limitations of the engine, however not very optimized (only got like 20FPS in a few areas and I crashed once or twice on my playthrough).
There were a few things that were not so fun to look at, such as the lens flares/dirt and really high specular on a few viewmodels (most notably the crowbar). Level design was generally good, had some fun-but-gimmicky interactive bits in some parts but also did poorly in drawing attention to where the player really needed to go.
The gravity-gun-rocket-launcher is probably the most memorable thing about this mod; rocket jumping is a lot of fun and its too bad you don't see it very often in games. It's a lot of fun to use in combat too but the game basically discourages using it by dumping so many weapons on you between battles and not requiring the player to use it at all in the final one.
Overall, it's worth a download if you've got nothing better to do. Just don't expect it to be what some other people claim like to claim it is.
