Dark Peak is a short Half Life 2 total conversion mod which I created as a solo coursework project peice in the final year of my BSc course in Computer Games Technology. I was given the task of creating a PC game (of any type or genre) and to write an 80-page report on its conception, design and implementation. I completed it in around 6 months and it earned 78 out of 100 possible marks. Due to the time limitations, the mod currently only contains 3 levels, and some elements of the game have not yet been changed from the Half Life 2 defaults (for example, the HUD). Dark Peak itself is an FPS Survival Horror game, with the majority of its environments based on the real-life rural town of Glossop in Derbyshire. The player begins in a public house, after being knocked unconscious by a mysterious 'quake' late at night. The player is then sent out to find help, and ultimately uncover the cause of the quake and the destruction encountered on the streets.

sorry not that much happen

Not necessarily terrible, but the execution wasn't done as well as I had hoped.

The atmosphere felt very drab and the level design wasn't very appealing and the whole mod ends just as it begins.

But, it was fun for what it's worth so those looking for some zombie killing may want to give this a gander for a few minutes.
