Welcome to the HPL2 documentation hub. Here you can find documentation about the different iterations of the engine. HPL2 was used to create "Amnesia: The Dark Descent", and an alternate version of the engine was used to create "Amnesia: A Machine For Pigs".
Because the MFP version is in majority identical to the TDD version, most of the documentation resides in the TDD section.
