Research and development

Not sure if this has a thread anywhere yet but it definately deserves one eitherway.

Came across this mod after it was advertised on steam today and i have to say its one of the best things ive played since portal... theres been so many "wow..." or "ohhhhhh" moments. Its a total joy to play!

Everyone should give this a whirly~

p.s. DO NOT watch the video as it spoils some of the early puzzles.

screenshots look fun. should be noted that the mod isnt on steam (at least i couldnt find it through steam). you have to download it from filefront

Just wanted to chime in that this is one of the best SP mods I've played. It does play a bit like an adventure game and there are a couple puzzles that might test your patience, but it's never so difficult that you want to quit.

The last segment, however, is what really shines. I think They Hunger was the last SP mod I played that I enjoyed as much.

Screenshots dont do this games genius and justice, not that they arent pretty but the puzzles just shine so bright!

Great little mod! The puzzles were actually very simple I found, but there was a lot of character to the setting. Memorable characters, too. Doris! ♥ And Crawly. Yeah, it felt a bit like Portal.

I d/l'ed and installed it but haven't had a chance to check it out yet. How do you launch the game after it is installed, btw?


NM - you have to restart Steam and then it will show up in your games list, if anyone else was having the same issue.

Really impressed with this so far, very professionally made. I think he made good use of the existing assets in new ways as well as introducing new ones that fit really well within the world.

The energy cube thing is sweet

Played this last night, so good! Great puzzles and interaction, the consistency of the environments was excellent too, definitely worth a play.
