Working on a new character portrait

[wjbs-aus]

The lore in most '90s FPSes: "Save Phobos from demons!"¹ "Avenge your friends by killing the evil god you used to serve!"² "Aliens have invaded and are trapping women in weird flesh cocoons!"³

The lore in the Marathon games: "Ok so they hollowed out a moon and turned it into a spaceship. There are biomechanical aliens invading said spaceship now, and the AI that opened the doors is now evil. Except sometimes he helps the player, and him being evil is nothing to do with the aliens; that's just something that happens to AIs in this setting. Also there's an elder-god trapped inside a star and it will end the universe if it escapes, and the entire premise of the third game is that you switch between various doomed timelines by finding secret exits in a surreal dream dimension. Also this entire franchise is a sequel to dungeon-crawler about exploring an ancient pyramid, and may or may not also be connected to Halo."⁴

¹Doom (Id Software, 1993)

²Blood (Monolith, 1997)

³Duke Nukem 3D (3D Realms, 1996)

⁴I literally only know about this because of the MandaloreGaming "Bungie Rabbithole" playlist.

Half-Life Game Journal

I started where I last left off in Interlope, I made may way through this tunnel and did some parkour

I then came up to these guys and snuck past them.

I came across a teleporter and went through it taking me to an industrial like setting

I made my way through some corridors and realised I'm in what seemed to be a factory/facility of some sort

I made my way to the top and dropped down the chute at the end of the conveyor belt.

I landed in a pool of water in a lower part of this facility

I fought my way through corridors and along platforms, and I will say I did die a few times here.

Eventually, after wiping out corridors of enemies, I found myself somewhere to gain some health back before moving on.

I entered this red crawlspace and made my way through it, eager for what was around the corner

I eventually dropped down into a vertical space flooded with hostile entities, I quickly found cover from the barrage of enemy weaponry coming my way and started firing back.

I eventually fought my way to the top (after dying more times than I'm willing to admit) and jumped into the teleporter.

After jumping into the teleporter I found myself in Xen again, but this time a very different part Xen.

I made my way down the floating rocks to the obelisk at the end

I jumped in and was instantly met with ugly mother fucker

I was dropped into the water below and we started our battle before I was rudely teleported into a weird calcified looking space where I had to fight and parkour my way to the top

At the top I entered the teleporter where I met back up with Nihilanth.

After fighting Nihilanth a bit more, I was thrown into a new area where I was instantly flooded by hostile fire. I did end up dying here once or twice.

I made my way back to Nihilanth once again and our battle continued, but was once again cut short when tHAT FUCKING PUSSY ASS BITCH THrew me into another hole to fight my way out off.

I found this place a fair bit harder and died a lot.

I eventually healed up and made my way back to Nihilanth where I finally realised I'm supposed to be destroying three orange crystals on the walls to Nihilanth from healing.

Nihilanth, who is too much of a FUCKING PUSSY TO FIGHT ME, sent me to the place I was sent before, this time with a more tanky enemy.

By now I had died a lot and was kinda getting fed up with dying but I was mainly mad at the launch pads in the hole I kept getting sent to, the launch pads don't always launch you and you can easily just walk over them before they activate, on top of this there are no air controls (I'm not hating on the game for not having air controls, it's old I know) so if I didn't get enough momentum before getting launched, I can't make it to the exit which is high up on the ceiling, which lead to me dying of fall damage and having to go through it all again.

I ended up leaving the session here so I don't get too mad at the game and I will come back later in the week, possibly tomorrow, to continue.

Next time I play I plan on beating Nihilanth now that I know to destroy the crystals.

Uni is done for the year, so have begun to settle into a rhythm of working on my own projects for a bit, around having a mad child to wrangle.

We are currently in the process of reworking GORE a bit, both codewise and visual wise. We announced it a while back, but we are switching to a fully 3d artstyle rather than the previous build engine inspired 2.5d.

These hand models are part of that artstyle shift! Going 3d has meant being able to work in cool details such as the holes in the sheriffs hands! We fully intend to include gross little animations involving them ;)

Making something

Still need to write the next lines (but I guess is better to just make it talk less, I will test both options)

[wjbs-aus]

A very silly thing I made for a Discord I'm in.

The premise it that it's a shared-universe theory I have based on some similarities between Realms of the Haunting, Powerslave/Exhumed/Powerslave: Exhumed, Killing Time, Blood (1997) and Necrovision. And also ROTT I guess, which isn't related but I personally think El Oscuro would fit very well into the universe.

Duke's Tropical Adventure - Live Now on Duke Caribbean: Life's a Beach

Summer is in full swing, let's get tropical with Duke Caribbean! Been excited to play this ever since we finished up Atomic Edition last year, I'm sure it's going to be a lot of fun! Stay tuned!

Finally finished with good old Doom 2.

No recording for final boss - boring as it is.

Just take one of few invulnerability and repeat New Hope ending 3 times but without X-Wing and space.

Credits are more enjoyable (for 1994) - best cast worth repeating.
