The Wielder of the Hammer Begs that He Fight For Justice!
Anyway, I'm back. Currently, I'm going to ask a "What if?" or "Is it possibe?" or "Would anybody go for an idea like that?" question. Although doing Half-Life styled mods are usually limited to modding HL itself, I had been taking an interest in an HL mod for the Quake 1 engine. Why? Because I was fascinated by the earliest crude game efforts that were done for that engine (such as the classic Viking Gordon Freeman, who could pass as the Thor Hammer wielding hero for the original Quake conception). Considering the recent advancements in the Quake 1 engine, and considering the Alpha for Half-Life contained such grotesque potential, similar to the grostquery of the orignal Quake, I think it would be quite a feat to create a Quake 1 mod based on the Half-Life's crude beginnings. We could even bring in the flesh torn scientists, and the psychotic Barneys, and the Bull Chicken and Mr. Friendly. We could even create Quake 1 styled-sized bosses in the artistic vein of Half-Life's kitchen-accident alien monstrosities. The crowbar would look very interesting as a Quake-axe styled weapon, and homages could be made to Redneck Rampage (which I suspect the crowbar was borrowed from).
It would also provide an opportunity to create scripted sequences in the Quake 1 engine.
So, would this be a good idea, or a bad idea? Do you find it interesting?
For the final note, I'll make a prayer to the Elder Things: Ia! Shub-Niggurath!
