Developed by KingDaniel and released in 2005, Life's End quickly established itself as a timeless classic and a must-play for fans of the original Half-Life. The tongue-in-cheek interpretation of the Black Mesa Incident captivated fans with its unique & quirky story. But what could it look like if it were crafted in the realm of Black Mesa's Source Engine?

Black Mesa: Life's End is a modification for Black Mesa, aiming to remake, reimagine and rekindle the magic of the classic mod. While mostly faithful to the source material, new elements will be introduced to re-envision and enrich the narrative and gameplay experience. Step into the shoes of mathematician Luther Johnson, as he arrives late to work on what will be the worst day of his life... Once again.

Greetings!

Throughout the week, I have been working on creating Chapter 2, 'Paradigm Shift', and tidying up Chapter 1, 'Lateman's Motion'. Whilst I have made good progress, more work still needs to be done.

I would like to announce that I plan to release the first two chapters of the mod as a demo, as a way to get feedback from the community and, if it comes to it, criticism.

I have been working to make areas from the original mod feel more practical and less 'barren'. Due to this, I'd like to hear what players, old and new, have to say about these environments and if they enjoy them.

As with the previous article, I'd like to state that if you have experience with level design, modelling and animation, you would be more than welcome to contribute your talents to the remaking of this classic mod. If you are an individual who is proficient in ModDB page creation, I would also appreciate your assistance as, as I'm sure it is clear by now, I am a noob.

Thank you for taking the time to read this article and for your support.

Niceeee. will the scene where you get fired be changed? it was always a bit weird how it was just text on screen and how just weird it was for vorts to spawn randomly. also I may be thinking of a different HL1 mod since I haven't played HL:LE in a bit
