This upcoming adventure map will be released in five to ten "missions" so as to create the atmosphere of passing time between tasks, and also so that for each mission, the facility is set up differently.

You are a soldier in the army in 2012. You are in a battle, when out of nowhere appears a strange, frighteningly large spider, which is pale white with giant red eyes. You are lost in shock when the spider rushes at you and bites you. You experience extreme pain, and within seconds you have fallen unconscious. You're just important enough in the army for them to care about saving you, and they rush you to the medical facility, where they keep you just barely alive under stasis.

5 years later, technology has taken a massive leap, and you wake up in a facility that you have no idea where you are at first, but you eventually recognize the voice of the doctor monitoring your situation at first, and you realize that you are still in the hands of the military.

Now, there is a never-ending war with the semi-sentient Void Creatures: they seem to have developed light armor and even some weapons, but as far as we know are not organized and do not plan attacks, etc. They simply open up rifts to enter the world where it is dark. They shun the light. Some of them are stunned in light and seem only defensive, and some are so sensitive to light that the super-intense light of day causes them to combust. However, some are immune to the light, and can fight normally under any conditions, though they still only come through in the dark. Sometimes, they decide to open a temporary or permanent portal, allowing Void Creatures to flood in.

Seeing as all of the battalions are currently on the front lines, and there is an increasing need for security, you have at least temporarily been taken on as a security officer. You are combating the Void Creatures, which are more sentient than we thought...

Our story begins where you are about to wake up from stasis...

This adventure map will feature documents that you open with each mission. Technically you are viewing them through your helmet visor HUD, which features a computer connected to the data network, so it doesn't feel too much like you have tabbed out of the game when you view them. The documents will be sitreps, briefings, uplinks, etc.

There will also be recommended background music for each mission, which will be songs from the Ace Combat 04: Shattered Skies OST and Ace Combat 5: The Unsung War OST. These are not necessary for the adventure map to be played, however they create a great atmosphere. When the package is downloaded, a txt file with a link to grooveshark.com and the title of a song that you should copy and paste into the search bar will be in each mission file.

Finally, there is a texture pack that is highly recommended you should use with the adventure map. I build some of the things corresponding with the new textures, and if you don't use this, everything looks non-futuristic and weird. Here is the link to the Planet Minecraft page for the texture pack.

It is a Halo texture pack triple pack. You can check them all out for a preview now. The Halo[MinecraftEvolved]_Theta_[CEA] version is the version recommended for use with this adventure map.

I plan to have the first mission, "Awake", out by the end of February, along with the corresponding documents.

Additional Notes
