Announcing TimeWarp news

TimeWarp is a Xash-powered HL1 total conversion mod that i have been working on for the past couple of months.

If you've been looking for another mod that'll bring you to Black Mesa, i'm afraid you won't find it here. This is all original stuff with a new story, characters, weapons and more!

This is the basic premise:

You wake up in the middle of an underground experimentation facility, with no memories of who you are or why you're here. The only thing you know is that you have to escape.

The facility's mainframe AI has gone rogue and wants to help you under two conditions - decommission the facility and let the people outside know what's going on here.

You were selected for time travel experiments. This could be your chance to take action.

That's all i'll really say about the story for now, you'll find out more about it later, just keep an eye out.

As the title, and the bit of story may imply, this mod's about time travel! You'll be hopping from time periods to time periods, fighting foes from said time period, maybe with a fitting weapon, or maybe something you brought from the future.

Here's a couple of screenshots of the maps i have been working on!

Ignore the HL1 models occasionally showing up here, they're just placeholders :D

The mod won't be just maps either, i've been learning character modelling and stuff, so here's some cool renders of the characters you'll meet on the way!

These are Detectives Campwell and Peters, you'll meet them during one of your time travel escapades and they'll assist you in combat encounters, or not...

This is Jay and Patient #84, with #84 being the player character. Jay is the facility's mainframe AI that was mentioned in the story bit. She starts out with just being on a computer screen, and later on goes to her robot form in order to help you out with combat!

Now, the mod will be a bit more story focused, i've been thinking of doing cutscenes with a mix of the usual scripted sequences thrown in during gameplay. There won't be too many cutscenes, just enough to tell the story.

Also i should point out that this is going to be a more shorter mod, so don't expect like an 8 hour playthrough or anything. This'll be a fast romp that might take you 1-2 hours. Now of course this mod is still quite early in development but i'm setting boundaries here to not suffer with scope creep like a certain mod i've worked on.

This is basically all i got to show so far, hope you like this and keep your eyes peeled for more updates because there is definitely more to come!

If you want to see frequent updates i recommend joining my Discord server, where i'll be showing updates like map screenshots, renders, maybe even videos of the mod in action!
