Alphamoon: Difference between revisions

alphamoon was first revealed in a stream of the [[Halo 2 E3 demo|''Halo 2'' E3 demo]], shown by [[Frank O'Connor]] and [[Brian Jarrard]] following Jarrard's chance finding of a ''Halo 2''-era [[Xbox]] devkit with the build on it in his home. alphamoon is one of a number of levels included in this build. The level as presented in the stream is based in the ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]'' game engine, using the ''Combat Evolved'' HUD, plasma rifle, and plasma pistol - though the [[Unggoy]] and [[Sangheili]] art assets featured are their ''Halo 2'' incarnations. The level is from early ''Halo 2'' development and is not optimised, resulting in a very low framerate while playing.<ref name="stream"/>

In the level dialogue, the Arbiter is referred to by the title of "Dervish".<ref name="stream"/> This name was the original title for the Arbiter in ''Halo 2'' development, but was ultimately changed to avoid being unintentionally offensive to Muslims.
