Halo Zero 2

Halo Zero 2 was a planned but never completed platformer Halo fan game. Neither Halo Zero, nor Halo Zero 2 are endorsed by Bungie or Microsoft. It was going to be the sequel to the 2D side-scrolling game Halo Zero made by Dob entertainment (ex-Biohazard software) using Multimedia Fusion 2.

On the 1st of February, Dobermann hosted a new site with a new beta and the project has been renamed as 2D halo. On the 5th of April, Dobermann announced that due to the bandwidth costs of maintaining his site and having no funds to pay it, the site will be shut down by May 31st 2009 and that Halo Zero 2 is cancelled.

Beta versions
Dobermann had made 3 beta versions before the game was cancelled. When the old website closed the betas were supposedly lost. However, there are some videos on You-Tube about it.in 2006 Dobermann released the 1st beta at his old website the Veteran Lounge with no mouse aim It was supposed to have lots of more vehicles and levels. The game was supposed to have Metal Slug style interface and sprites. later he released a 2nd beta which was released at his newer website Biohazard Software.it was more like Halo Zero, but with more weapons and still more vehicles and still no mouse aim. On February 1st Dobermann released the last and 3rd beta version released at his newer website Dob Entertainment everything was the same as the 2nd beta except the interface and mouse aim.

Storyline
Dobermann said the game actually did not have a storyline. He said he only did some artwork about possible mission objectives. But we can be sure that the story was planned to take place on Reach (at least in the beginning) and you won't play as Master Chief.

Controls
The controls would have been the keyboard and the mouse, just like its predecessor, Halo Zero.

Miscellaneous

 * It was confirmed by Dobermann that there would have been skulls.
 * It's possible that there would have been armor permutations.
 * Dobermann said that there was going to be Flood, which would mean that we possibly would have played on the Halos.

Glitches

 * There is a glitch in the Halo Zero 2 beta where if you grab the Battle Rifle, empty its magazine and keep firing to the left, it will continue to fire even though the ammo counter says zero shots left. The bullets will kill enemies, but you can only fire to the left.
 * When standing between the Needler and the Plasma pistol, pickup the Needler and you will have a Needler shooting plasma bullets (may take a few tries)
