So we can work with developers who is professional at their field.
#HUNT DOWN THE FREEMAN MOD#
What you see in the trailer is MOD version, uses HL2 asset, what we want to do is use our own high quality asset in the game, everything you see in the game is alpha version, we will remake all the animations, gameplay, voice acting and all of it! Licensing the game itself cost nearly $50,000, Havok needs to be paid a licensing fee of $25,000 for the physics engine, and also we need to license RAD tools such as MILES and BINK, and are not cheap.Īlso as the director I did not wanted this game take too much time like other mods or games made by community, because they took years to develop and some of them still in early access, We can make this game fast, and good quality but for this we need found from the indegogo campaign. “Hi all! I see that some people have doubts about the price and some people found it high, here is the reason. This has been quoted exactly, so apologies for any spelling/grammar mistakes. However, Berkan has responded via a post on the Steam Greenlight page. These costs are coming over to fans in the form of a $100,000 Indiegogo campaign, half of which is being used for the above licensing costs… To pay for a Source mod… Understandably, people are dubious. However, in calling it a “standalone game,” Berkan caused confusion here that could have cost him a lot of money.Īlongside this, he has not paid the $25,000 that is required to cover the licensing fee of the Havok physics engine, nor has he licensed the RAD tools included with the Source SDK. In Valve’s rules for using the Source Engine to publish games on Steam, it expressly claims that any Source Mod may use Valve IP, so long as there’s a disclaimer saying it’s not been created by Valve. Many people began asking whether the team have permission by Valve to create this “standalone” game, exploring the intricacies of the wording. The other way is not only extremely difficult, it doesn’t make sense outside of a particular form of storytelling.”īut the main problem surrounds legalities behind what is exactly being made here. “I’m not surprised they would move toward cutscenes. “The execution is impossible to judge without playing the thing, any more than you can gauge a book,” Marc commented in an email. To answer this, I thought I’d pose the question of cutscenes to Marc Laidlaw - the writer of the Half-Life ( you may remember I interviewed him)! Every plot driven moment was still 100% playable, so making this change was going to face some sort of fire. Strong criticism has surrounded the use of cutscenes - any Half-Life fan will know this is a storytelling mechanic that was not used in the previous titles. I see it as kind of a natural successor to the HL1 expansion “Opposing Force,” which leads into the events of HL2 also. The trailer, while clearly using a mish mash of Garry’s Mod add-ons looks set to tell an interesting story from the perspective of Mitchell, one of the marines sent into Black Mesa to kill Gordon Freeman.
