Half-Life Fan Game Gets Valve's Blessing - Oni - 10-07-2022

A fan-made game based on the Half-Life universe has received Valve's blessing. It will be listed on Steam in the near future. Awesome that Valve is encouraging creativity (as they'll likely profit from it).

Quote:

Over on ModDB, a creator by the name of PinkyDev has revealed that Codename: Loop(opens in new tab), their project to create a top-down, twin-stick shooter spinoff of Half-Life, has gotten the go-ahead from Valve to be listed on Steam in the near future.

Probably the most impressive thing about Loop is its compatibility with the original Half-Life's BSP file format. This allows Loop to utilize GoldSrc engine assets, preserving the look and feel of Half-Life on the Unity Engine. Loop is also set to support an over-the-shoulder perspective, and even come full circle back to a first-person view for any mapmakers who want to create FPS levels within this new framework.
