Summary:
Black Mesa (originally Black Mesa: Source and stylized as BLλCK MESA) is a third-party remake of Half-Life developed and published by Crowbar Collective.
Introduction:
As in the original game, the player controls Gordon Freeman, a scientist working at the Black Mesa Research Facility. He is tasked to place a sample of a strange material into an electromagnetic instrument, using the Hazardous Environment Suit Mark IV to do so safely. However, the sample material causes a “resonance cascade”, devastating the facility and creating an inter-dimensional rift to an alien dimension called Xen, bringing its alien creatures to Earth. Freeman survives, finds other survivors, and makes his way to the surface with the protection of his hazard suit to get help. Upon reaching the surface, however, he finds that the facility is being cleansed of any living thing – human or alien – by armed forces. From other scientists, Freeman finds the only way to stop the alien invasion is to cross over to Xen and destroy the entity holding the portal open.
Game type:
Black Mesa is a first-person shooter.
First-person shooter (FPS) is a video game genre centered around gun and other weapon-based combat in a first-person perspective; that is, the player experiences the action through the eyes of the protagonist. The genre shares common traits with other shooter games, which in turn makes it fall under the heading action game. Since the genre’s inception, advanced 3D and pseudo-3D graphics have challenged hardware development, and multiplayer gaming has been integral.
Game-play:
Black Mesa is a game that requires the player to perform combat tasks and puzzle solving to advance through the game. The core game-play remains unchanged from the original Half-Life; the player can carry a number of weapons that they find through the course of the game, though they must also locate ammunition for most weapons. The player’s character is protected by a hazard suit that monitors the player’s health and can be charged as a shield, absorbing a limited amount of damage. Health and battery packs can be found scattered through the game, as well as stations that can recharge either health or suit charge.
On June 16, 2015, the first content update (version 0.1.0) for Black Mesa was released. It featured a new death match map (dm_stack) and added a number of player models for the game’s multiplayer component. It also fixed many bugs in both single-player and multiplayer.
On December 22, 2015, version 0.2.0 was released, dubbed “The Crossfire Update.” The update added a new multiplayer map (Crossfire), new weapon models, graphical improvements (god rays), localization improvements, steam controller support, and map balance updates across single player and multiplayer.
On May 15, 2016, version 0.3.0 was released, dubbed “The Surface Tension Update”. The update integrates a popular mod, Surface Tension Uncut, into the game (the mod’s developer, TextFAMGUY1, had previously been added to the development team). The new content adds about an hour of gameplay to the game. The update also adds high-definition shadows (using Cascaded Shadow Maps), faster map load times, and translation support for 5 additional languages. As with previous updates, 0.3.0 additionally contains game balance and level design changes across single player and multiplayer, as well as programming bug fixes. Notably the game’s Artificial Intelligence was modified in single player.
In Surface Tension Uncut, an unofficial mod for Black Mesa, the Surface Tension chapter was expanded to include certain areas of the original game that were not released along with the remake, as the developer had left before his work was finished. The developer, Chon Kemp, known on the Black Mesa: Community Forums by the pseudonym TextFAMGUY1, also modified the On a Rail chapter to include the areas cut from Black Mesa, to make game-play less tedious. Kemp was later hired by Crowbar Collective to remake Surface Tension Uncut for the Steam release, while the uncut version of On a Rail was published on Steam Workshop. Today, Kemp continues his work to finish the Xen chapters.
