The IDT Experiment

Description
!WARNING! MUSIC MIGHT BE COPYRIGHTED

Story: you are a worker at a government science lab taking part in the IDT experiment (Inter Dimensional Travel), which started after a strange anomaly happened and odd blue crystals, artifacts, and texts appeared at the site. The lab found out from the texts that by connecting the crystals to one of the artifacts, it would create a rift that led to another dimension. But when the lab tried this out, the resulting rift was bigger than expected, causing damage to the surrounding room and staff. You wake up a couple days after the accident, and it turns out that some expedition teams were sent into the rift, but were captured and killed by the native alien species, who also have this rift technology and use it to get servants. The aliens are planning on invading earth and enslaving the human race! Can you survive the harsh world with its sinister locals, a tar like ooze that turns things into monsters with multiple eyes, and other hazards to stop them and save the human race?

TL;DR: government lab screwed up with inter dimensional technology and the aliens from the other side of the rift want to take over earth. Can you stop them?

This is based off of Half Life 1/2 and it took me a week to make seeing as it is my first level. I hope that Captainsauce or some other youtuber plays this.

KNOWN BUGS: some enemies will walk into a wall and ignore the player.
Said enemies can also disappear from their intended location.

Very good work.
One of the best if I do say so myself. :melon:

@CHILLSHARK2003, No worries! I absolutely love playing your maps and enjoy their exploration/puzzle like mechanics, so it was just a tad bit odd seeing the issues that I saw.
But thanks for the response, and I hope it all gets resolved with a replacement of some sort, or any other solution!

Thanks once again, :smile::ss13ok:

Ok I found the problem. The author of the alien texture mod either
A) deleted the texture pack
B) Hidden the texture pack
either way it's disappeared from the workshop. As for the crab people their textures are still up on the workshop, so idk what happened with them. Again, thank you for letting me know about this!

@dkns Huh, that's extremely odd. Thank you so much for letting me know! I'll look into it.

Hey CHILLSHARK2003, I think there might be a major bug in the map, likely caused by several updates to PTTR overtime these past couple months, but it seems the character textures are not how they are supposed to be, the "lobster-man-thing" is now replaced by numerous boxers throughout the level, and the pink aliens alongside the giant cyclopian enemies are just COMPLETELY BLANK WHITE, no textures, features, nothing

Also, it appears that not only this map in particular in the IDT storyline is affected, but the same issue is indeed happening on the IDT Invasion as well.

I don't know if this is on my end specifically, if I'm missing any particular character texture pack to go with this, or if this is an indeed issue across the board, but I though I'd bring it to your attention.

Thanks, :smile::ss13ok:

@El_Mayoneso hate to break it to ya bud but you can finish this level in under 1:30 by sprinting through the whole thing.
