About

The Burning of Eden 2 is an 18-level fan-made scenario for Bungie's original Marathon, built by brothers Matt and Ed Schenk (credited as MaEd) and released through Info-Mac. It is one of the few large-scale total conversions ever produced for the Marathon 1 engine and requires the commercial game to play.A scenario for Marathon 1Where most ambitious Marathon mods targeted Marathon 2 or Infinity, Burning of Eden stayed loyal to the first game's engine. The package is not a standalone title; you need a working copy of Bungie's Marathon 1 in order to load the scenario.Eighteen handcrafted levelsThe scenario weaves together 18 single-player levels with original artwork, an elaborate plotline, three-way fights between factions, environmental puzzles, and gloomy basement sections. The Schenks describe it as the product of 'many hundreds of hours of youthful enthusiasm.'Version 2 improvementsVersion 2 supersedes the original Burning of Eden release in the archives. It adds 11 new network maps, expands ammo placements, layers in additional secrets, and corrects a range of bugs reported by players of the first version.DistributionThe mod was distributed as a BinHex archive (burning-of-eden-20.hqx) on Info-Mac and shared from the authors' Saint Joseph's College page, the standard delivery channel for Marathon community content in the late 1990s.
