In April 1999, Team Fortress Classic was released and became the first game to use that same original Half Life engine.
Valve cut straight to the chase and hired the original team to make the mod into a port of their game, Half Life, using the Goldsrc engine. Due to its huge success, the mod's developers (Robin Walker and John Cook) wanted to create a standalone game called Team Fortress 2.
