MEZZAVITA is an interesting GameMod which acts as a double SpiritualSequel to both Crack-Life and Grezzo 2, by keeping most of what the former mod originally included (such as the weapons and some enemies) but also going for the latter path and changing everything to now be oriented about Italian culture and stereotypes, as well as some of the outdated memes being now replaced with much modern ones [[MyFriendsAndZoidberg and adding VTubers]] to the game as well.

The story sees protagonist Giordano Liberuomo (which name is Gordon Freeman but Italianized) that is hired to work at Negra Mesa, a place which only female scientists and guards of color seems to work. The story is very similar to the original, albeit now PlayedForLaughs and utilizing an ExcusePlot to make the whole thing move forward.

* ForeignRemake: Due to being an Italianized version of Crack-Life, any English related memes (including the outdated ones) have been replaced in favor of new, Italian ones. Some exceptions such as the Gentlecrabs, the Penis gun, and memes like "SPARTA!" and "Do you suck dicks?" are still in the game, but their audios have been replaced with their Italian counterparts to fit better.

MEZZAVITA is aimed as a some sort of double SpiritualSequel to Crack-Life and Grezzo 2, by keeping most of what the former mod originally included (such as the weapons and some enemies) but also changing the rest to be completely different, such as making the game now oriented about Italian stereotypes and replacing outdated memes with modern ones [[MyFriendsAndZoidberg and adding VTubers]] to the game as well.

The story sees protagonist Giordano Liberuomo (literally an Italianized Gordon Freeman) that is hired to work at Negra Mesa, a place worked by only female scientists and guards of color. The story is very similar to the original, albeit now PlayedForLaughs and utilizing an ExcusePlot to make the whole thing move forward.

The game was released in 2022 (doubling as a MeaningfulReleaseDate due to also being the 10th anniversary of Crack-Life), and the creator stated some plans in a Q&A to make a sort of multiverse out of this mod, albeit they will be less memetic and much more serious compared to MEZZAVITA edgy humor.

In 2021, a one-man group called REDROVER Games decided to work on a some sort of fusion between Videogame/CrackLife and Videogame/Grezzo2.

Thus [[TitleDrop MEZZAVITA]] (literally Videogame/HalfLife written in Italian) was born.

MEZZAVITA is aimed as a some sort of double SpiritualSequel to Crack-Life and Grezzo 2, by keeping most of what the former mod originally included (such as the weapons and some enemies) but also changing the rest to be completely different, such as making the game now oriented about Italian stereotypes and replacing outdated memes with modern ones [[MyFriendsAndZoidberg and adding VTubers]] to the game as well.

The story sees protagonist Giordano Liberuomo (literally an Italianized Gordon Freeman) that is hired to work at Negra Mesa, a place worked by only female scientists and guards of color. The story is very similar to the original, albeit now PlayedForLaughs and utilizing an ExcusePlot to make the whole thing move forward.

Game can be downloaded [[https://www.moddb.com/mods/mezza-vita-unitalica-modificazione here]]. It's recommended (albeit not necessary) to play the game with the Italian language for the full experience.

!The mod shows examples of:
* ForeignRemake: Due to being an Italianized version of Crack-Life, any English related memes (including the outdated ones) have been replaced in favor of new, Italian ones. Some exceptions such as the Gentlecrabs and the Penis gun are still in the game, but their audios have been replaced with Italian ones to fit better.
** The Zombie headcrab is now the late Richard Benson (an iconic trash character who became famous for his extreme and somewhat excessive behavior), which will scream at you.
** Another enemy has been replaced with Solaire from Videogame/DarkSouls, with his voicelines taken from [[https://www.youtube.com/@thepruld/featured ThePruld]], an inspiring Italian voice actor and {{Machinima}} animator known for work related to that franchise.
