About this map

You and your crew are in a spaceship and detect ancient man-made structures and faint life-signs on this cold moon of one of our gas giants. Your crew beam down/shuttle down to investigate.

What to expect

This one is a campaign rather than a single level: it spans 2 map files that run in sequence, so expect to play it as a session rather than a quick round. The author rated it hard, so it is better suited to a group that has played a few maps together already.

The parts run in this order: coldburn_beta, coldburn_2_r.

How to play it

  1. Press Host above. The map downloads first, then starts.
  2. Share the room link with whoever you want to play with.
  3. They open it and join — no install, no account, no port forwarding.

This map is not stored here in advance — it is fetched when you press Host and then starts. That happens once; there is still nothing to install. Everyone who joins needs a browser and the link, and nothing else — they do not need to own Half-Life, install the Sven Co-op client or make an account. Because the connection is brokered for you, neither side forwards a port or rents a server.
