What is Natural Selection ?
Natural Selection is a cross between a Real Time Strategy game and a First Player Shooter game. It is written for the Half-life game engine, and Half-life (or other Half-life retail product) is required to play. It is designed to be:
Accessible, fast, mouse-driven interface: no keys beyond those used in Half-life needed.
Simple to learn and play, it is hard-core action/strategy for a mainstream audience.
Innovative social dynamics lead to memorable games.
Atmospheric indoor sci-fi environments full of steam, smoke and ambient soundscapes

Take orders from your Commander as he plans his next strategy to wipe out the alien attack

Choice of 9 different weapons available, from the basic Knife (http://www.natural-selection.org/images/knife_final_full.jpg) to the more deadly Heavy Machine Gun (http://www.natural-selection.org/images/hmg_final_full.jpg)
Immerse yourself in the battle and fight your way through atmosperic maps and destroy the alien hives to quash their ability to take over
