IMPORTANT NOTE

Firstly, please accept my apologies for the delay in posting this mod. A number of circumstances conspired against me. The most important being my laptop dying. I have therefore be unable to play the entries, create screenshots of materials for the mod.

If there is anything wrong with the mod’s packaging please accept my apologies. I plan to update it once I get a new PC (2014!).

Thanks to everybody who helped prepare the mod, including the Beta Testers Collective, especially Ade and all the entrants.

About the DefendVille Theme

For this competition, you must create a scenario where you have to defend your outpost from a Combine attack.

The player should have approximately 10 minutes to prepare for the defence, including moving turrets, or other obstacles.

Ideally, the design would allow for players to try slightly different strategies on replays.

There are no limits to map(s) size or playtime. You can set the map in any environment that you want.

Winner

Due to technical issues I am unable to play the entries as they were meant to be played. I have therefore decided to open this competition to a vote. In fact, from now on, that’s how all future competitions will be judged unless I can find some professional developers willing to be judges.

I will also limit future votes to registered members only.

Please see below for the poll to vote.

Background Images

I have included 1 background image. I hope to include more in a future update.

Menu Music

The background music is an edited version of “The Theatrical Poster for Poltergeist III” by Chris Zabriskie from his/her album Vendaface.

PlanetPhillip Industries Models

This mod contains custom models for certain items. The ammo crate is the most obvious and is really the “Panoramic Image” version. See if you can see the others.

Intro Video

The PlanetPhillip.Com intro video was made by Spartan301

Custom Gridview Images

No custom gridview images are included in this first release.
