Dissolution is a science fiction, single-player mod for Half-Life 2 that mixes adventure and action game-play. Set in the year 2089, in a universe dominated by a mega corporate entity, Xterrier, the player awakes in a hidden lab to the voice of the mysterious Wilson. Guided by Wilson, the player must make their way through the ravaged Xterrier 581c colony, making use of any and all resources they can get their hands on in order to survive, all the while attempting to piece together the events leading to the colony's collapse and their own identity.

If you’re reading this, you’ve probably played one of my Dissolution-universe mods already, and some of you will have played a few. This is a short post to let you know about what will be the fourth entry to the quasi-series – The Kepler Experiment.

The Kepler Experiment, as Lunar Descent and The Apocalypse of Eden did before it, will expand on the world built in Dissolution, allowing you to explore another Xterrier-owned location, this time the research vessel XSS Kepler.

The Kepler Experiment is going to be a free, fully stand-alone game, built using the Godot Engine, but with many of the mechanics present in my previous titles. Like them, it will focus on environment design, story telling and adventure (collect items to survive and progress) gameplay.

It is thematically and stylistically similar to The Apocalypse of Eden, but unlike Apocalypse it will be a survival-horror, with some light, but deadly, action, rather than the avoid-the-enemy horror Apocalypse utilised. As with previous titles, there will be audio logs and readable notes, to allow those interested to dig deep into the game’s backstory.

If you’re interested, you can follow the game on ModDB / IndieDB, where I will keep you posted with progress.
