Delta Particles maybe?
I've seen a lot of people on YouTube who basically consider it an unofficial Half-Life expansion... and it's the only purple HL thing I can think of... Decay isn't really purple. More orange or red?
I am very interested in whatever they do next. Black Mesa is excellent, especially considering the circumstances of its development.
It's worth watching that noclip documentary for a closer look at the studio. Hearing that they want to implement Valve's design sensibilities in a new game is enough to get me interested in whatever they release.

There were mod teams already doing those. Do you think Crowbar Collective either acquired them or entered into a collaboration deal with those teams to fully develop those remakes for a retail release?
I kinda of hope it's not Decay (it's really not all that good beyond the novelty of a two-player Half Life imo), and nothing about this really suggests that it is Decay to me beyond "there are four things, Decay is a fourth thing". Though if they're going to wildly re-imagine it, then I trust they'd make something way better out of it, I suppose.
Personally I think it would be cool if this is an "expansion pack" of their own imagining for Black Mesa. And given the lack of any purple-based Half Life property, I'd wager it probably is.

I know it's not half-life related but I'd love something for Gunman Chronicles. It was basically a paid HL1 mod at the time and I didn't know any better. I don't think you can buy it on steam.
Fake edit: you can apparently just download it!

The full version of Gunman Chronicles fully ported to steam. Please read the full description!
I think it's possible.
Alternatively, their original project is actually a new Half-Life expansion. That could be neat.
well, it could be anything. Im sure valve trusts their judgement if they wanted to make something using their ip.
i doubt its an opposing force remake because of a mod by Tripmine Studios that's been in the works for years (and is graphically on par with black mesa).
i dunno, the video gives me multiplayer vibes. personally.

Much as I'd love for the color choices and crowbar logo focus to suggest that they're doing remakes of the other Half-Life expansions (since I have zero faith in Tripmine ever completing their attempt), I think the shield emblem shape suggests this is teasing an original property. That should excite me more, but in all honesty, it zeroes out my hype for this specific announcement, and I'll reserve my interest for when they have a gameplay teaser. On the other hand, they had to know people would interpret this to mean they're doing the HL expansions - I doubt they'd intentionally lead people on unless there was something there. They wouldn't WANT their original property to immediately disappoint people out of the gate, right?
Could still be a heavily HL inspired narrative campaign that allows for 4 player co-op but also solo play, maybe?
Garry's Mod creator is using it for his new game S&box, and seeing as Valve basically gave Crowbar Collective both the go ahead and full engine license for Source 1 to make Black Mesa, I'm going to assume they also have access to Source 2 now. Hopefully.
Hard to have a good take on Xen, except to make it short I guess...
Yeah it's 0/2 so far haha! But theirs was wildly ambitious, I'll give them that.

I liked the first Xen chapter well enough, but Interloper was absolutely horrendous, and it went on for HOURS.
Looking forward to seeing what they're working on next.
Yeah I liked the rest of Black Mesa but man their Xen levels just drag on and on forever. I feel like the Xen section should have been like 70-80% shorter.

Cute.Yeah their discord is breaking it down, trailer specifically hints that it's not OpFor
I'm looking forward to whatever this is!
