The time has arrived. It was not easy, but after nonstop work in the past weeks I’m thrilled to announce that Nightmare House 2 is officially out!
You can download it from our new official website nh2.wecreatestuff.com or check the mirrors.

That’s a good opportunity to thank the team who helped me raising this perfectionist’s project. It was a long challenging journey and I doubt I’d finish this alone. It’s been my pleasure working with you guys.

Nightmare House 2 is a free, horror-themed first-person-shooter game, and the direct successor of the first classic horror map pack “Nightmare House”. Nightmare House 2 started booting up in around 2007, two years after the first game came out. Development has been through many phases, resulting in scrapping a few of the first concepts in early development phases. And finally, you can now play it.

Hey guys! Me and my team are still working hard on Nightmare House 2, but we’re happy to say it’s just around the corner. I might sound like a broken record by now, saying how close it is to release, but I can say this: The whole game is fully playable from start to end and almost everything is in. We’re polishing, fixing and adding last few features to sharpen things out. It’ll be out this May, worst case June.

With that said, we know you’re eager to play it already, so we’ve prepared one last teaser before the launch. It’s right below, have fun! You can download the trailer at 720p from http://nh2.wecreatestuff.com . Speaking of which, the new website will be up just before we release the game.

P.s I’d say, for the first time, you get a glimpse about Nightmare House’s storyline. Nightmare House 2 is the direct successor of the first classic horror map pack I released back in 2005. We spent a lot of time developing a deep story with a lot to explore, I hope you’ll enjoy it as much as we did making it

Hey ladies, Hen here.

Recently I’ve been getting more and more emails and forum posts, asking about what’s up with Nightmare House 2, how the progress is doing and whether it’s still in development at all.

I understand your worries completely, especially because the current website is very, VERY outdated. Well, not anymore. First of all, a new website, full of fresh new info and media is being worked on, and will be up in the following weeks.

Until then, regarding the progress of the mod, I have a little surprise for all Nightmare House fans: We just put up a new temporary minisite for the mod, with a brand new HD trailer of NH2 at its best. It shows a lot of the stuff you may encounter in NH2, so I’m waiting to read theories!

Go watch it here:  nh2.wecreatestuff.com Change your pants and come back.

FAQ

Q. Damn it Hen, when’s the mod gonna be released?
A. I don’t want to promise any dates. The current progress indicates the release of the mod will be around Q4. I’ll update you guys otherwise. Speaking of which, if you’re interested in the development, follow it on: Twitter, Facebook, the official forums, and… this blog!

As a final note for this post, I’d like to thank again to all of you guys for expanding the ideas thread. It helped me a lot, even beyond just ideas – it was and still is a motivation fuel for me.
Cheers!

Heya!

I’ve got some cool news for you today. For the past few months now we’ve been working on a new title, Echoes. It’s a Flash strategy – shooter game, in a futuristic war theme, and I can’t wait to show you some pics.

Isn’t that one awesome logo. Wait ’till you see the following characters. Axel Hammarback is the one responsible for their sharp looks – He’s the lead art & animation on Echoes:

Snap, awesomeness!

Last, I forgot to update about it. Portal: Still Alive is out and available on the Xbox Live Arcade for 1200 points ($15). It includes ALL of the original Portal game, plus a number of new challenges (That’s where we come in. Go Hen!), and new twelve achievements. Seven-hundred megabytes of win.

I’ll keep you guys posted.

Finally, it is done!

You can download the mappack through its little website. Remember, you need both Half-Life 2 and Portal installed in order to play.

Have fun, and don’t forget to leave me some feedback!
