#HALF LIFE 2 LENGTH CODE#

The following are other questions we asked the Half-Life: Alyx team, including compatibility with other VR hardware, whether Half-Life: Alyx can come to non-VR platforms, and which developers are working on the project. вЂњWe thought we had something playtesters would finish in 15 minutes, and instead, players spent 45 minutes exploring it, and didnвЂ™t want to stop.вЂќ As soon as we had a small section of Half-Life gameplay up & running in VR, with Half-Life 2 assets, and added some rudimentary hand physics/interactions, it was really clear that Half-Life suited VR,вЂќ Walker explained. вЂњur Half-Life experiments, beginning all the way back in The Lab for the Vive, yielded exciting results very quickly. Unfortunately, momentum retention through portals is a requirement for most of the latter half of PortalвЂ™s gameplay, and we didnвЂ™t think we could build a VR game that required that movement of its players (yet).вЂќД«ut Half-Life proved to be different.

So in this case, we started exploring VR using assets and code from Portal and Half-Life. вЂњLike many game developers, we often use our previous games to experiment with new design ideas. вЂњWe didnвЂ™t set out to make a Half-Life game,вЂќ Walker revealed.

There weren't even plans to make a Half-Life game in VR. вЂњItвЂ™s a full-scale campaign - repeated playtest results indicate itвЂ™s about the same length as Half-Life 2.вЂќД®ven though Half-Life: Alyx is looking to be a full-length adventure, Valve was initially just testing VR technology. Just how big is Half-Life: Alyx? According to Valve, itвЂ™s the length of Half-Life 2, which most estimates clock in at around 13 to 15 hours.В вЂњThis isnвЂ™t a spinoff or a side story, or anything of the sort,вЂќ said Walker.
