Gordon didn’t see the tunnel coming. For a moment he thought the smoke had thickened so suddenly it had put out all light; but the sound of the train closed in around them, trapping them in a tube of darkness. Not long after that, a few dim lights flickered past, casting their wan glow on a grey amalgam of broken rock and cinderblock crammed together with bits of scrap metal. He thought he saw a human femur jutting from the wall, a rounded socket that could have been part of a skull. They passed through a portal of sharpened steel, razor-edged door retracting for the train, and the walls became smooth, dark, regular. And then the wheels were screaming. The train seemed to sway on the track as it started to brake. Lights flared ahead, space opened around them, and they floated into the station. “Now arriving,” said the train. “City 17.”

This is a project I have been working on, on-and-off, for around 6-7 months. This was originally supposed to be a 2001-2002 Half-Life 2 Beta themed HL2RP centered around the Terminal, Industrial, and Commercial Zones of City 17. Unfortunately, I became stumped on the project and decided to complete the map as a decently-sized sandbox map. For those who knew I was working on it, and those who anticipated on its development, I hope you’ll enjoy.
