Coil is a short singleplayer Half-Life Mod.

Some machinery and factory units have already been dismantled, but mysteriously, some time before an important experiment was due to take place in the Anomalous materials lab, an order was sent to begin reassembling certain parts of machinery, particularly the power routers connected to the old prototype teleportation labs. The motives behind this decision were never disclosed by the administration.

That's right - I'm splitting up Coil... Into 3 connected chapters. The first of which will be released in early January.

Yep - that's right - A Coil Release! Even I'm surprised.

The first chapter will take you from the start, to about a third of the way through the game. There will be 7 or 8 maps (depending on how fast I can finish & beta test them)

I've also added a special feature to the maps, which i think a lot of people will enjoy. Especially those who liked games like System Shock 2... I'm not saying any more - you'll have to wait and play the game to find out.
Here are a few screenshots from the first chapter that look nice in between text ;)

I hope this episodic release thing works out - The first download may seem a little bloated, for just 7 or 8 maps, but the next chapters will be smaller.

There will be some new media once I finish up a few things, then my faithful beta testers will be taking it apart for a week. Then (hopefully) a release!
