[The_Return]

Mods, please feel free to move this thread to its proper location. I just wanted to start in in General so that I'd be able to get a quicker response.

Ok, so who here has played Half-Life? I need a hand.

I havent been playing very long, so Im not very far yet. Im still in the Black Mesa facility, not long after everything went to shit.

I walked into a big, mostly empty room. Stairs leading up to a lever at the end of the room. I pull the lever, two of the little alien dudes pop out of a vent, and the platform infront of me starts to go down. I run down the stairs, dispatch the little aliens, and jump onto the platform. The jump damages me a bit, but I survived.

So the platform comes to a stop and Im in a new room. Bunch of boxes, a pool of water infront of me, and from where I am I can see two health boxes, and a hallway off to my left. No baddies around, so I figure I aughta go fill up my health and wander on down the hall.

Herein lies the problem: I cant move.

I can look around, I can shoot, but the arrow keys do nothing. Neither do the alternate controls, or jump.

My question is, is this a glitch (which Ive ran into more than once already), or is there something that Im supposed to do that Im not seeing?
