Dark Interval is a campaign mod created as an alternate take on Half-Life 2, incorporating selected early story drafts and cut content. We're creating new maps, assets, characters and story beats to fill in the blanks, and to build a coherent story of its own. The mod is released in episodes, the most recent being Dark Interval: Part I - an intro chapter to the bigger picture.

Bad news: despite our earlier promises to release DI Part 2 as 17 maps going from Kleiner's Lab escape to the Depot, the first release will only contain the first 12 maps. It's either this, or never living to see Part 2 release at all.
This also means that Haven and Beach maps from the Wasteland Demo (available on our Discord) won't be included in the first release. Why? Because there are three more maps between them that are not completed.
Good news: we have a release window. And the trailer.
The mod is out of alpha, and in the next few weeks it will enter the final closed beta test, where we'll find and fix bugs, make final adjustments to gameplay and item balance, finalize all the story scenes. How long it will last depends on how many problems we find and how fast we can fix them.
Additionally, Part 2 will include all maps from Part 1, but they won't receive drastic changes on release.

How we doing in the year of our lord 2024?
"The first 90% of project development take 90% of time, and the remaining 10% also take 90% of time"
wich chapters will be in the next update?
Part 2 goes from the start of escaping City-17 to the start of Air Exchange.
cool thats alot
very cool and very atmospheric
Played it, loved it.
Dunno which is better, that or Raising the Bar Redux. I liked both. Still, that one makes first chapter much longer.
Both are great in their own way, and I think both are great for exploring their own takes on the Beta.
Personally I would give the edge to RTBR for having more content and being overall the more fun mod currently, but I enjoy both mods equally.
Honestly, I'd much prefer this mod over Raising The Bar: Redux.
Physics props are transparent when I pick them up, any fix for this?
It's a feature. Consult the options menu ("Gameplay" tab).
