Alien Swarm Deferred Alien Swarm Deferred was released in 2012. It's a third-party mod created by Kristjan Skutta a.k.a. Biohazard90. This fork of Alien Swarm Alien Swarm has support for deferred lighting and shadows (similar to Black Mesa Black Mesa). It's among very few Source Source games that have dynamic shadows not based on projected textures, while still having its source code available to the public. Performance-wise, it is extremely impressive as the mod can support hundreds of dynamic shadows with very little performance impact.
