Notes:
*The game is, despite my patience, pretty unoptimized and can lag on computers that run Half-Life just fine.
*There are also a few places where you can jump in and just get stuck in the world geometry. Be careful jumping into tight spots.
*Also, there were a handful of crashes that occurred while recording, specifically in jumping down the elevator shaft on your way back around the ship.
*The Spirit of Half-Life engine is a modification of the engine through the Half-Life SDK, not entirely through the GoldSrc code as I mention in the video.
*So sorry for writing in the whole "feigning surprise" tone in there three times, hahah.
