I love how Civvie occasionally changes Blake Stones name to things like "Dick Marble, Chad Feldspar, Nigel Basalt" it reminds me of the MST3K episode where they watch Space Mutiny and make up a dozen different macho names for the main character like "Smoke Manmuscle, Crud Bonemeal" etc. If this is some kind of reference to that then bravo Civvie, bravo :D

The "hidden arenas" informant is not a typo. If you keep wall humping in that area, there's a teleporter to the secret level zero, which is called Weapons Testing Arenas (or something to that effect) and it absolutely is "arenas" not "areas," they are locking monster closets.

Dude Blake Stone! I remember this one. Holy shit those sounds take me back. As a kid, whenever a new wolfenstein type sprite based shooter came out, it was always like Xmas morning. The blood and gore, colorful sprites, choice of weapons, groovy but simple music, hilarious sound effects, and the overall tongue in cheek feel that most games of the time had, were really a solid formula for an enjoyable and heavily addictive gaming experience.

Blake Stone is seriously underrated and probably the best game to use the Wolf3D engine in its original pre-ROT form (what do we call that these days btw? IDtech0? IDtech1?). All those added touches do so much to make it feel immersive, and unlike a lot of Apogee titles it keeps throwing new things at you all the way through the 66 levels rather than giving us the best bits all in the Shareware episode. Things like Blake really underline how badly Capstone buggered up their use of the Wolfenstein engine because frankly there's plenty that can be done with it.

Back in 93 my 386 was too shitty to run Doom. But you know what it could run...? Hell, yeah Blake Stone! Which cemented a love-hate relationship with the game as I remember having a lot of fun with it, but at the same time it was the game I was stuck with while everyone else was screaming how Doom was the best game of all time.

Kind of curious, wasn't it Civvie that coined the term 'Boomer Shooter'? If so it's kinda funny that the Boltgun trailer refers to itself as a 'Boomer Shooter', like Civvie has successfully invented a genre name.

Cool to finally see this one covered. I got mad nostalgia for this game and still had a good time playing it recently. Yeah, the hitscan mechanics are jank, and Planet Strike in particular can get a bit frustrating to navigate at times, but it was also kinda ahead of its time with its level design, and seeing stuff that would be commonplace in later shooters pulled off in such a primitive engine is still impressive.

Seeing Admiral Adama and John Crichton's pictures in the bit at the beginning was pretty sweet. I wonder if anyone will ever make a Brutal Blake Stone mod, or what it would be like if someone just made some Blake Stone levels in Doom (with the verticality and all that) kind of like they did with that Wolfenstein game

Ah... my favorite Wolf3d engine game. And definitely in my top 3 "Boomer Shooters" (along with Blood and Heretic) I had no idea Planet Strike existed until recently and it's the first time in 10 years I'd felt excitement 😅 Srsly, just watching this review fills me with joy ❤🎉 Edit: I have the OST in mp3 format and listen to it regularly 😁

If I’m not mistaken, the silent pistol does extra damage to unaware enemies, meaning you can sneak up and oneshot a few basic guards without alerting enemies. Basic protostealth mechanics as well! Too bad there are precious few occasions to do this

Hey, Civvie! I just wanted to say that all of the stuff you make is genuinely some of the most enjoyable content online I've found, and that if you ever start feeling burnt out from making these so quickly, then don't worry about us if you wanna take a break! Sometimes I get the feeling that your fans really get on your nerves about making videos on things ASAP, but I don't want you to end up hating everything you do, so if you can, make sure to take it easy from time to time!
