A downloadable fan translation

This is a partial re-edit of the English translation of the Half Life mod "Wrong Door". The mod takes around 8 hours to complete. 5-6 hours if you're speedrunning.

This translation edits the dialogue into much more natural English, though there are a handful of lines that had to be shorter than I would like - getting the translation to work required a strict character budget. This translation also ensures that all the lines that the author didn't translate - mostly composed of the guard and scientist lines - have an English translation. While they aren't too critical, they do offer some important lore that would be missed if you played the official translation instead.

I've also edited some of the inventory-related messages, though the other parts of the official translation are untouched.

Furthermore, this mod is somewhat difficult, but not punishingly hard. You can get to the end if you're careful, though the difficulty gets a lot easier when you get a full party (around 3/4ths of the way through).

As for content in the mod: There's a lot here. Lots of crossovers, like Cry of Fear, the original Half Life, Mario, and Doraemon. It also actually mods an action JRPG-esque system into Half Life 1, which is neat. You get levels, along with new abilities when you level up enough.
