Red Alert: Origins Teaser Trailer

Command & Conquer Red Alert: Origins is a StarCraft 2 semi-total conversion mod aimed at bringing the good old Red Alert game from Westwood Studios back with a up-to-date game engine. Origins is being created by “Sourc[e]x“, a Norwegian 3D generalist and long time game modder. The mod started out merely as a personal scripting challenge to recreate the Red Alert/Tiberian Dawn sidebar system using the Galaxy Editor. One thing led to the other and now the mod is turning into a complete remake of one of my favorite games: Command & Conquer: Red Alert. As I went further down the development, I decided to make Red Alert: Origins a reboot of “Project Red Alert“, a old and canceled Warcraft 3 map I started years ago, which I’ve been wanting to restart for some time now. It was essentially the same thing; a semi-total conversion to turn the game into Red Alert. The ultimate goal of Red Alert: Origins is for me to learn more about game logic and scripting and having a great time imitating and improving upon the gameplay of Westwood Studios’ Red Alert.
