Valve Gives Ten New Games The Greenlight, Includes Black Mesa And Towns

Valve have announced the first batch of games to be launched on Steam via their new Greenlight service. Greenlight allows developers and publishers to post information and media about their game in an effort to convince community members that their game should be released on Steam. These ten titles have picked up strong support from the community and will be available on Steam in the coming months.

Anna Sweet of Valve said:

Since launch, hundreds of titles have been submitted, with more coming in every day. We expect to be announcing more titles coming to Steam via Greenlight soon. The Steam community rallied around these titles and made them the clear choice for the first set of titles to launch out of Greenlight.

The first set of titles to arrive on Steam Via Greenlight are as follows:

Black Mesa
Cry of Fear
Dream
Heroes & Generals
Kenshi
McPixel
No More Room in Hell
Project Zombiod
Routine
Towns

Black Mesa, for those who are unaware, is a fan made third party mod that aims to overhaul Valve’s original Half Life game. The 40 man development team say they wish to “create a more engrossing in-game world with more varied, complex environments and more challenging, realistic gameplay”. But Black Mesa is not just a mod for Half Life it’s a total recreation of the game using Valve’s very own Source engine, which makes it even more of an accomplishment and even more amazing when you see the final results.

It's all gone Pete Tong!

Half Life turned 10 a week or so ago, and it’s only fitting that the boys behind Black Mesa would release something (unfortunately not the bloody game) to commemorate the occasion. Just to give a bit of background; Black Mesa is a complete reimagining of the orignal Half Life, with entirely new textures, models and sounds. They’re basically rebuilding the game in the new Source engine, and understandably that’s taking quite a long time. I recently played through the original thanks to the Anniversary Deal on Steam, and I have to say I’m very, very eagerly awaiting this. Even 10 years on, it’s bloody good fun.

Hit the jump for their new media.
