This multiplayer mod for Half-Life 2 is currently in alpha development.
Ricochet: Source is a third party mod whose aim is to port Valve's Ricochet over to the Source engine (
Source 2006), and hopefully in the future further expand upon the games concept and gain more interest for the Ricochet game as a whole.
Totally third party
Ricochet: Source is a third party modification, and is not developed by it's original creator Valve Software. The mod will be free but will require Half-Life 2 and Source SDK Base to play. Ricochet: Source is developed on a licensed version of the Half-Life 2: Deathmatch source code (Not fully licensed).
Project status
The mod is in a healthy state. There are some bugs but most of the Ricochet functionality is coded in.
Development
Various teams were involved in the development of this project. But the most global success was with the old team, as in fact they created the basis for the next projects-followers of Ricochet: Source.
