<div class="IPBDescription">The Half-Life mod that never was.</div> A long long time ago, there was a mod called Natural Selection. But this mod was but a small child in its ongrowing life, and as such had not been released. However, this mod had gathered fans. Fans who were hungry for action, fans who were, for all intents and porpoises, idiots. Hoorah we said, hoorah, at ever piece of news about NS. We loved it like a child.
However, we got restless, we needed action! As a community, we played Svencoop, Firearms, TFC, Covert Strike Force, Frontline force, Rocket Crowbar, Science and Industry, and yet we still needed more! Something raw, something that we had control over.
One fateful day, I was discussing old games in IRC, and something started stirring. Then, after a quick shower, something else started stirring. I had the HL source code, I had a compiler, it might just work! And Hyperpuck was started. The fans went wild. We played it for hours on end, and all laughed at Jedisar whenever he missed a shot.
I thought I had lost it all in a fateful Hard drive crash. But recently, I found a directory in the dark gloomy depths of my hard drive. Lying in wait for me, was a prize greater than all others! The last known Hyperpuck Beta install file! And now, I offer it to this community. It sucks, truely it does, but it is fun.
And Jedisar sucks at HP almost as much as Wurmspawn does. Fo sho.
<a href='http://www.box7.co.uk/hyperpuck' target='_blank'>Visit the website and <b>Download</b>!</a>
<b>How to play</b>
<ul>
<li>Unzip to your Half-Life directory.
<li>Find someone who can host a server (A player limit of 6 is about right)
<li>Set up your keys. You will need movement keys, and the +use key, nothing else.
<li>Join the server
<li>Join a team
<li>Try and get the puck in the enemies goal, and dont let them get the puck in yours
</ul>
The rules are as follows:
<ul>
<li><b>The more times you pass the puck to your teammates, the more points you get.</b>
<li>If you do not pass before you score, you get no points.
<li>On scoring, the puck will re-appear in the middle of the map.
<li>Powerups will spawn in the middle of the map. Run over them to collect them.
<li>Press your +use key to use a powerup
<li>Your +use key will also stop you from moving, an instant break.
</ul>
I know about all the bugs, but I have lost all the hyperpuck source code. Please, enjoy it as it is. If something goes wrong, restart the map, thats the only fix, sorry about this. For everyone wondering how you tackle another player: Get the tackle powerup.
Thankyou,
Fam
