It was 2010 year when the last version of Slums was released. But today, when i got much more experience in level design and painting i decided to remake first 2 maps from original Slums mod (2007).
The first one map is half remaked and i will proceed to work on levels when i will get free time and inspiration. You will see absolutely new fresh and polished Slums with some gameplay and graphics changes, which should like everyone. Some areas (or maybe most of them) will be changed completely. Also, Slums will contain several new puzzles to solve.
The main goal is to make my mod more unique and far from HL2 style (while using HL2 weapons and hostile NPC`s).
Because it will be on 2013 Source engine you will not need to purchase any HL2 game. It will be absolutely free for everyone who have Steam and installed Source SDK 2013 Singleplayer tool (which is also for free).
Here are some screenshots.
This is great news! This mod was great for it's details and atmosphere, which was fantastic.
The somehow "pale" colors and the awesome music placement made this mod's amazing atmosphere, alongside a very solid gameplay.
Also, the custom content like sounds and others were top-notch.
This certainly deserves a remake and, I'd say, a new ModDB page for the it.
I would love to see some new models (weapons, etc.) and a few more custom stuff (HUD, etc.), so that this would be truly unique.
I wish the devs the best of luck improving what already is a masterpiece ;)
Yay!
Good luck!
Is the remake dead?
