So, I thought a comic would be a good place to get some humor into the game. Well, I thought Half-Life 2 was a great game, but there simply weren’t enough jokes about toilets in it. The main aim was to bring a bit of humour to Half-Life 2’s story in a way we all could relate to. Livingston started working on the comic in 2005 as a hobby using Garry’s Mod to create scenes and poses which were then screen-captured and edited into a comic format. Along his paths he comes across many Half-Life 2 characters we are all familiar with, however Frohams take is most always clumsy and bewildered. Frohman, unlike Freeman (and pretty much the rest of humanity) actually loves life under the Combine’s domination and suppression and becomes disappointed when he cannot be surgically transformed into a Combine Solider. The story (if you have not already read it (which we recommend you do!)), is supposedly set in a short time before Gordon Freeman actually arrives. It has received a lot of recognition from popular international gaming magazines and publications such as Joystiq and PC Zone, it even has it’s own Wikipedia article!
If there was one thing Valve missed out from Half-Life 2, it is that there are not enough jokes about toilets in it, right? Well, thanks to Chris Livingston, there is a fix.Ĭoncerned is a webcomic about the (half) life and death of Gordon Frohman on his misadventures through City 17 and it’s outskirts. You can see an entire list of her Valve-related works on a list on the Steam Forums.Ĭheck out here entire folder of Valve stuff and her own personal creations here. Shaylyn actually works for Gearbox Software as an environmental artist and recently worked on Borderlands 2, so you know that this is going to be some serious stuff! Shaylyn Hamm, or known more well known to the community as ‘Chemical Alia’ has produced an amazing collection of digital artwork relating to Valve’s games, especially the Half-Life series.
