Since it's one of my favorite holidays, I'd thought it was time update this thing with media!
Last week I finally shut down the first domain ever made for my personal site, Classic-HL. The shut down was pretty obvious, for the name itself was dreadful and what I would consider my favorite game has definitely changed...
Anyhow, with the site it was all part of this idea I had for a mod-based company named with another awful name I can barely remember. Despite all the unwise decisions and names I came up with in 2010, it was this time period that lead to many memorable things: The Axel Project, meeting Joe from Bloodbath, and just overall evolving in mapping. Yes, it was quite fun thinking back on it now.
Eventually I was embarrassed with how poorly written and hideous my previous site was so I started working on this in December 2011, in which I chose the name "Xylem" after hearing it in Biology class and thinking it just sounded just right. After several major redesigns, and meeting up with Ash_Link to code my site, you have what we see here today (really, thanks a lot for all of this Taylor).So after all that back-story, here are some images of various designs I switched from over the years:
Design 2 - June 2010 (missing header):
Design 3 - Early 2011:
Design 4 - December 2011:
Design 5 - January(?) 2012:
Lately we have been a bit more active at Bloodbath with Overturn. We may very well have a release this year (fingers crossed!) This isn't a singleplayer demo, but in fact an action packed multiplayer demo! Be sure to get your weapons loaded, but this could be a very bloody Christmas!
Last but not least, Happy Halloween! Collect all that candy you selfish little brat!
