Cat Life

[Friendly Garg]

About:

Cat Life allows you to play as a cat... in Half Life. Your a scientist's cat pet and were brought to the Black Mesa, because your master didn't have time to take care of you back home. The story takes place at the same location and time... Black Mesa, and the time "the experiment" went horribly wrong. Aliens invade Black Mesa and your master gets killed. You have no idea where you are.. you can't even think about where you could be.. only thing you know is that you feel danger everywhere.. and you have to escape.

As you make your escape out of Black Mesa, you get to kill enemies in a special way. Since your only just a cat, you can't kill them that easily yourself. You'll find scientists to be very useful in opening doors for you and letting you escape through small area's they can't fit through. Not only the scientists and security guards are on your side, you also have the military as an ally. They don't see you as a threat, and might be able to help you out once in a while... or maybe you can save them!

We are looking for:

- Voice actors
Probably need just one. Can't give too much info on that yet, but it'll have to be voices for scientists and more.
- Texture artists
If we could cooperate with another mod to use textures, that would be great. We are in need of Black Mesa themed textures.
- Modelers
Our first model should be a cat, with only a couple of animations. Used as the player model, and maybe for other cats in the future (with several different textures).

We can't have enough mappers, so you'll be sure to get a spot in our team! You'll need some samples of work first of course.


Don't have a site up yet, so until then I keep the moddb profile up-to-date. Be sure to check that out regulary.

should be "pet cat" not "cat pet"

sounds interesting though.

Are you the cat, the one that Kleiner and Barney talk about? Because I would definately like to hear that cat's story.

And will the "special way" of killing enemies have anything to do with this cat triggering physics traps? That would be cool.

Well, most of the time, it's an adventure where you will need to find ways to get to the next area. It wouldn't be very realistic killing alien slaves and grunts. Small enemies like headcrabs and snarks shouldn't be a problem though.

However, it's possible to attack bigger enemies.. but not giving out any info on that just yet. Specials ways include making use of scientists and security guards... which isn't really special but the only info i'm giving away on that subject.

I'm also looking for other places to search for help... know any? Finding members is the hardest part of making a mod

lol, you should have it where the cat messes up a machine and causes the Black Mesa Incident

This is another great idea. I'm so happy to see all these unique ideas floating around!

 

[Shinobi]

This is my most anticipated HL2 mod by far,, Best idea so far IMO

Good to hear.

We'll be making the first couple of ingame screenshots as soon as the hud is finished, which isn't far from now.
