This was AMAZING. I can't believe how well designed every single combat encounter was, the environments were varied and beautiful, and the original soundtrack is such a banger. Hands down one of the very best maps out there.
Speaking of soundtrack, is it out somewhere? I'd buy it.

Nice unique map and great way to hone skills with the shotgun! ;) The only 'bugs' were combine getting stuck in walls after being killed in some spots. Very fun map and great job!

Great map. The design and performance are top notch. And the explosives scattered around the map made killing the ant lions more fun than usual.

Well done, well balanced, all nicely packed together. All understandable and intuitive. 🤌👏

Super well balanced map, felt like a badass while knowing that a mistake could be fatal. Good performance too.

WOW, loved it! I am really proud of myself for finishing the map/mod in only two sessions. For me this was a very interesting challenge. Many thanks for all the work you put into this map/mod.

Shotguns, grenades, explosive barrel's and so many creative ways to kill off a vast mixture of enemies! Absolutely loved this mini campaign and as others have said each battle is intense and requires different and creative strategies. Congratulations and thank you!

such a great atmosphere! the last 15 minutes were really tense and kept me on my toes. the map design was really dense and detailed and i loved the sense of scale to everything. please keep on with what you're doing :))

Die Map ist super. Sehr abwechselnd. Herausforderung war das es nur die Shotgun gibt und Granaten. Aber alles Gut. Habe es durchgestanden. Die Aliens waren auch sehr passend eingesetzt. Weiter so ich freue mich auf die nächsten Maps.

all combat encounters were intense and fun, the amount of bullets were just right eventhough i had to really improvise in the mines when u get ambushed by a swarm, however the only thing i would like to change is the shotgun itself, it feels too weak and the range just isnt there, maybe a custom weapon would have elovated this to one of the best mods, i do got to praise the artdirection, genuienlly amazing stuff here :steamthumbsup:

Fantastic! The battles were so much fun. They were well balanced, and let me feel like a badass while not being too easy either. Incredibly immersive. I want more. And, Valve ought to hire you for the next Half Life game in VR.

F*** yeah! I loved this map (and the cat room). Just the shotgun was an amazing idea FOR THIS map, leggies dominated. Get the grenade launch upgrade and go to town! Such intense Xen decor and very intelligently designed course was also highly enjoyable.
I found a hidden space with a cod4 "x=" format... how can I use it?
Looking fwd to more Sheriff maps.

Loved it, thanks for all the hard work, great looking levels and engaging battles with just shotgun and explosives! Played through on hard level, nice balance ammo management & health boosts
Foox 15 Jan, 2024 @ 10:41am 
Very good indeed. Lovely environments, detailed and complex. Challenging combat (played on hard and it was). Enough health and ammo but not too much (health in shorter supply than ammo). 10/10.
Pako Moreno 14 Jan, 2024 @ 8:26am 
Genial. Me he divertido mucho. Muy bien hecho. Great! I have fun a lot. Very well done!!

Both Thumbs up & Thumbs down.

Pros: Well-balanced and entertaining. I ended with mroe than 20 shells, but a few times my health was quite low- making it suspenseful and tense. The music was refreshing and mostly good, usually not too loud except near the end.

Cons: Way too dark- makes it claustrophobic, which is not fun. It tightly turns on itself everywhere, so the actual space of the area is small- It feels cramped.

Easily one of my favorite maps on the workshop! I felt myself having to scavenge for ammo quite a bit, and when I couldn't find any it was nice to have grenades lying around. It gives a good amount of challenge while not being annoyingly difficult. Good job on this, and I look forward to future projects!
FireKeep 21 Dec, 2023 @ 12:23pm 
Excellent map! A lot of the encounters felt varied and diverse even with only having access to the shotgun. The environments felt very immersive and nice to explore through.

My only real complaint is the fight with the combine in the dark. The layout was pretty complex on its own, but paired with fighting in the pitch black it was a bit overkill for me. (I also had an annoying bug where my flashlight wouldn't line up with my aim, which while not your fault certainly didn't help)

I look forward to seeing what other stuff you come up with!

Very funny
The Tinkerer 15 Dec, 2023 @ 2:44pm 
This was of of the BEST mods I have ever played for alyx, when it ended I was crushed. 10/10!
MiKa 13 Dec, 2023 @ 1:43pm 
This mod was incredibly good. Thanks guys !
(A bit too many cats inside and outside that room haha :)
deeman 12 Dec, 2023 @ 8:05am 
this map was pure fun. Everything works, cool atmo, could had last two hours longer...
sergio.e.samayoa 10 Dec, 2023 @ 9:11am 
I was sad because no new good mods for Alyx...
But this is very good!
Enough challenge (not easy, not hard) and the map very good!

Un trabajo perfecto. De los mejores Mods

I do not play much Workshop entries, but I had to give that one a try as I saw a very promising video from Skummeh
And I have to say this title really stands out.
The sound design is exceptionally well done. The music is cleverly mixed and fits into the gameplay. Also the environmental sound is well thought out. Unfortunately the audio element is often underestimated, but it adds so much to the atmosphere.
The idea of giving the player only the shotgun is way more refreshing than I thought. It changes the usual combat into closer fights which fits well into VR. The combination of getting a lot of grenades works so well with the shotgun, I gladly threw every grenade I could get.
Keep up the great work :)

This is an amazing mod. Agree to all the positive feedback.
Great visuals, audio, challenging combat and all over level design. :steamthumbsup:
Awesome work - it makes me happy to play this.
Also made a playthrough here: https://youtu.be/lhMOy-ctHEg

mod excellent thanks
bekawe2016 2 Dec, 2023 @ 10:20am 
@Asuredly Nobody: Today there is a mass on hardware available to make, realize, compose and record sounds and music. From the simplest up to pro versions. I (f.e.) use the Korg M3 expanded and with the radias board installed, a "classic" Workstation with infinite possibilities and applications. Also interested in what HLA modders use :)
Assuredly Nobody 2 Dec, 2023 @ 9:32am 
Fantastic little campaign, environments were superb and filled with detail, the focus on the shotgun was a refreshing twist that made for some very tense combat encounters (not being able to pick enemies off from a distance forced me to be aggressive), and the custom soundtrack was excellent and made for a wonderful change from the usual recycled base campaign music.

Also, out of interest, what was used to make the soundtrack (DAW, synths, plugins, etc)? Always interested in hearing (har har) what people use to make music for mods like this.
harrison-c20 2 Dec, 2023 @ 8:32am 
loved this mod......very slick and immersive, cant wait for more from you guys ;¬)
bekawe2016 2 Dec, 2023 @ 5:35am 
The Zenfestation is very advanced, both inside and outside. And that even high water containers are eaten. The atmosphere in this mod is excellent from the start, well supported by its own soundtracks. (Personally, I don't like the fact that the music has to be deafeningly loud during fights. Unfortunately, that's usually the case). Otherwise, diving into this hostile world is great fun. The buildings and the situations are "real" Half Life. A lot of time and dedication went into this. Congratulations on a really well done job and thank you!:steamthumbsup: I've already played it twice and then even found all the resins. Hours of fun :steamhappy:Your second mod, you'll get better quickly.
