ABOUT Bitter Avalanche

Bitter Avalanche, dating as far back as 2014!

Welcome to Bitter Avalanche, a community rooted in the tradition of immersive, text-based serious roleplay. Since our founding in 2014, we’ve cultivated a space for creative storytelling, rich character development, and collaborative world-building. Over the years, we’ve hosted multiple servers, each driven by the passion and dedication of our members, making us a cornerstone in the Garry’s Mod roleplay scene.

Our focus has always been on creating a setting where players can dive deep into the art of roleplay—whether it’s through complex character arcs, engaging scenarios, or the thoughtful progression of personal and shared stories. We’ve stayed true to our values: a commitment to quality roleplay, respect for fellow players, and fostering a welcoming environment where creativity thrives.

Having weathered many changes, our community has consistently adapted while maintaining the standards that define serious RP. We take pride in the bonds our players form, the stories that have unfolded, and the moments that have left a lasting impact on our shared world.

Whether you're a veteran roleplayer or someone new looking to dive into the immersive realm of serious text-based RP, Bitter Avalanche offers a rich history and an environment that champions authentic roleplay experiences. Here, every interaction matters, and every story finds a place.

Bitter Avalanche Comeback!
The Why;
The answer is simple and complex all in the same breath, in that I have been missing roleplay on Garry's Mod as a given, and that after 5+ years of running my own game studio alongside other projects I found myself yearning for something of what I used to do- running a Garry's Mod server to the benefit of others and myself. However this revival cuts a bit deeper than I'd care to admit- in that about one decade ago I used to run Universal Encounter Networks, the how and why of failure we won't go into at this time as I don't care to dredge up the past, but that community ran a Metro 2033 RP Schema when Clockwork was first released. Now, ten years later, the gamemode is still woefully underrepresented in the English-speaking community.

My return attempt to Garry's Mod is a simple matter, in that I miss the community I once had, the people in it and the Roleplay it fostered. I'm eager to get back into it.

The How;
Aberidius and I make a formidable team together, whereas I have been taking up the mantle of lead designer and Aberidius has been picking up the mantle of head developer again. We will be using Helix this time around instead of Clockwork due to the latter's outdated systems by now.

The gamemode is coming along well, with some core features already having been coded and installed, though requiring testing in due time. I can't say much about the plans we have in-works behind the scenes, just that we're hard at work to provide a challenging and interesting setting for you to roleplay in under the Metro universe, as that universe deserves nothing less.

Moving forward;
Moving forward, we will see the community change a little on Discord and we'll see some things be created, and some things be removed. For one, PTB was entirely removed and the testing we will be doing will be on a live server. I have also decided, through no fault of anyone, to start over from scratch with staffing. Right now on the team it's me, Aberidius, Kas and Nightmare still. Applications will open in due time, though if you have a development discipline to offer us at this time, you can speak to me directly to see if we have need or use of it.

I'll hope to speak to you all soon enough again on the matter of progress and when the server may well be ready for launch.

Hey there my dudes, I haven't been on the server for a while and I was wondering around what time does it usually have people joining as it's pretty boring just walking alone in the server :D
