Post feature RSS February's Frightening Mod of the Month

Frantic fighting, gruesome zombies, interesting puzzles and spooky scenery, all on a standalone engine. What more could you ask for to keep you entertained on a lazy Sunday afternoon?

[page=Introduction]
The latest project from the talented Quake modder ChrisPage, The Hunted is an upcoming series of FPS-Horror episodes. The first chronicle, "The Beginning", was astonishingly created in just under a fortnight, and is incredibley enjoyable. While many modern games take the focus off gameplay and place it on increasingly advanced graphical achievements, The Hunted manages to entertain players through it's balance of tension, challenging combat and puzzles, and the use of stunning graphic effects. Perhaps best of all, however, is the engine it is running on; it is standalone, and any user is free to download it and play it without any other prerequisites.

The storyline, while simple, only serves to give the player a brief overview of their situation: in the first chronicle, you play as a survivor trying to avoid the masses of "infected" people on the streets of the city by taking shelter in a house. As each chronicle is released, the player will assume the role of different survivors in the city and discover more about how the people of the city become infected. As barebones as this is, the core of the gameplay is in the experience of the game.

So what are you sitting there for, reading about this so-called Mod of the Month. Download it now and discover for yourself what makes this mod so great.

What sort of puzzles does the game have, unfortunately I can't d/l this at the moment, and I'm looking for good puzzle-designers for the Citadel Utopia Mod. Drop by sometime if you're interested.

Lol, that's funny, Citadel :P

It was a fun game. Sure, it was hard as hell, but not too bad for 11 days of work (I thought Carni said 11 hours of work...).

It's basically running around, picking up keys and weapons, while fending off zombies. I didn't get that far into it, though, so I have no idea how you get the pistol out from behind that window :(

That isn't a pistol, and nor is that a window.

Good job.
Glad to see your weekend wasn't wasted. Now tell me how to get that crate of individually wrapped C4 packages out of the hidden room!

I'll give you points for Zombies, any game with hordes of flesh eating undead deserves something.
