Half-Life: Opposing Force Hints
Spore Launcher
The spore launcher is a cool new alien weapon. You gather spores from small alien lichens that constantly produce them and use them with your new weapon. The creature that is the spore launcher eats spores and then spits them out when you give it a squeeze.
The spore launcher has two modes. The primary attack spits out a spore-rocket relatively straight ahead, whereas the secondary attack tosses out a bouncing spore-grenade. The spore launcher can have 5 spores in its mouth at one time, and up to 20 more spores can be carried. The spore launcher can be used underwater.
