Rating: 4.0; Vote: 1
Gameplay footage and first impressions commentary on the upcoming Bombshell game from 3D Realms and Interceptor! mcgibs: Since there's still a large niche that plays 2. 5D shooters, what's stopping someone from making a new commercial Build engine game? Other newly released retro styled games are a dime a dozen, but no devs ever revisit that era of FPSes. Imagine that. A new, never before played Build game that isn't Duke or Blood.
Or maybe the reason why nobody does this is that the likes of Duke, Blood, Doom, etc, was a case of lighting strikes. The right people, the right time, and now that kind of talent is lost to antiquity.

LGR, first I love your videos, this one included.
Second, have you heard of a game called Big Pharma? It reminds me very much of Theme Hospital, at least in the aesthetics department. It almost looks like a clone (it seems to be heavily influenced by the look of Theme Hospital at the very least. The main difference is that instead of running a hospital, you run a pharmaceutical company. It's on Steam and has very positive feedback. Thought you might want to take a look at it.

I hope there is some decent multiplayer support. I may be one of the few people who actually enjoyed Diablo III, especially online play with friends. If they do end up supporting it (with some other unique characters) I just want them to figure out a good method to prevent modding. Inevitably that's what kills a lot of these games for me because I enjoy the grind and find it completely unsatisfying to play with or against players who tweak their stats.

A bit off topic, have you ever heard of Retro City Rampage?
If you own the PC version, there are several DOS versions, most notably a floppy image, of the game -hidden- in the game folder.
I tried it and it's pretty damn great. It's almost exactly the same game except. DOS-y.
Anyways, I recommend it, if you haven't heard about it already.

Ehhh. She looks cool and its awesome that its 3D realms again but I dunno. I'm not really into twin stick shooters at all and I think I would have been way more into this game had it been a different type of action game. Ether way, ill keep my eye on this one and if its for the right price ill give it a try regardless.

I seriously want a build engine prequel so we get her origin story but also don't have to have that bog down 'her' game. Would be great if Eduke supported this or some other spinoff from build but I dunno if those engines require the duke assets or you could theoretically do your own thing.

I got to meet John St Jon at a local con earlier this year, he did mention about this game used to be a Duke Nukem game and recorded lines for it. But since it was changed to Bombshell, he did say he is now the villain of Bombshell so you still get some Duke in this game; )

Don't sweat it, LGR; knowledge of the Build Engine prequel demo has already been on the Internet for a month or so. I think you're in the clear to mention it.
Still oddly more psyched for that than the actual game.

Engine optimization? They probably had super computers at PAX. A lot of Unreal games have been playing like ass. MKX and Arkham Knight are both Unreal Engine and both have had a lot of complaints.

Looks good, and I'll be sure to give it a shot when it goes on a STEAM sale, as I already have so many damn games to get caught back up on, and no time to really play them these days.
