This ambitious Half-Life 2 mod asks: what if Iron Lung had a submarine and an airship?
Oh, and a space shuttle.
The Temple is an upcoming Half-Life 2 mod that takes the horror of Iron Lung and expands it to include three forms of transportation. The mod allows players to explore an aquatic planet filled with strange, concrete megastructures using a submarine, an airship, and a space shuttle. The submarine takes players into the depths of the ocean, while the airship and space shuttle allow exploration of the planet's skies and asteroidal moons.
The mod was originally released as a pair of maps for MapLabs, but the total conversion will revamp and expand those maps, adding a third map for over two hours of exploration-based sci-fi horror. The mod features Amnesia: The Dark Descent-style invisible water monsters and a talking crow that helps guide players through the experience.
While there is no specific release date yet, the creator, who goes by Klems, says that the mod will launch very soon, possibly next month.
