Mod makers usually make new maps or weapons for games that support such things. However it's rare when the actual gameplay is changed. It's even more rare when the game's viewpoint gets turned around. One mod maker is hoping to do that with Valve's multiplayer shooter Team Fortress 2 by turning the game into a 2.5D side scroller title.

The mod is being made by amateur level designer and artist Dylan Loney who made a version of it for a contest. His plan is to finish the mod which will give all nine Team Fortress 2 classes their own stage to run through. Each class will have their own special abilities they will have to use to complete their stage. You can check out a video of the earlier version after the jump.
