From Earth is a new sci-fi themed Source engine modification. The game recently came out on Steam as a free mod for Half-Life 2, and so far, it has received a positive response from the community.

We recently covered the launch of INFRA – A new Source-based puzzle-adventure game.

Oskari Samiola, the lead developer of Infra and founder of Finnish game studio Loiste Interactive agreed to do an interview with LambdaGeneration to talk about the game and its development.

We will also be giving away 30 copies of Infra, details about this at the end of the article.

In addition, Oskari and his team have funded LambdaGeneration’s web hosting costs for the month, we gave them a shoutout in our sidebar to say thanks!

Could this be the Myst of the Source engine?

‘INFRA’ is a freshly released first-person puzzle adventure game. It was initially created as a Portal 2 modification, but became a standalone Source engine title after Steam Greenlight success in 2013.

Last month, Infra finally came out on Steam, and so far, it has received a fairly positive response from the community, including a nomination for IndieDB’s Indie of the Year Awards in December 2015. We take a quick look.

If you’ve been following the Half-Life 2 modding community lately, chances are, you’ve probably heard of an upcoming game called Prospekt.

Black Mesa Developer Chon Kemp, who we previously interviewed about his work on the upcoming Surface Tension Uncut update, has released the cut chapters of Black Mesa’s On A Rail chapter as a free mod for the Steam version of the game.

The developers behind the popular multiplayer Half-Life mod Sven Co-op just put out an update trailer, showing off the long awaited 5.0 update. Check it out below:

Earlier in the week, we gave an exclusive sneak peek at Black Mesa’s new ‘Crossfire Update‘, which rolled out officially on Steam today, just in time for the Steam Winter Sales.

In this article we give a more detailed comparison and go over what’s new.

Even with Source 2 here and the amount of documentation on Source 1, GoldSRC keeps on kicking with life! The life of Half-Rats that is, the character in the new mod: Half-Rats: A Fever Dream.

Black Mesa, the mod that set out to recreate the original Half-Life from the ground up in the Source Engine has had a long and exciting journey from the days when it was just an ambitious idea.

Today, Black Mesa finally comes to Steam after being Greenlit on Steam so long ago.
