"CastleRoid BlakenStone" sounds like the worst possible combination of urinary tract infections and vascular inflammation. Like the kind of thing that is technically not fatal, but makes you wish it was.
Hey Civvie, Exophobia dev here! Thanks so much for giving my little game such an extensive playthrough, I'm so glad you enjoyed it! 🙌It was a huge surprise for me as it didn't have much coverage on launch. Thank you once again. Btw, the whole "sewer" part of the game is there just because of you lol it was really cool to see that whole sewer counter sequence!
Civie plays FPSs on TH-cam. New FPS' are created that reference/"honor" Civie. Now you've been christened w/ a new genre. I can't wait to see the next batch of Castleroid Blakenstones consisting of 90% sewers.
By Civvie saying that, this game is now know by the entire retro FPS community as "CastleRoid BlakenStone". They're gonna add a secret shout out in an update, probably in a log, honoring Civvie's naming of this game.
Save terminals? One way locking doors? Wolf3D square walls? Story told in terminals? It's a Pathways into Darkness clone and Civvie is starting the Marathon games arc confirmed.
I damn well hope so! Only been waiting since I began watching him in 2019. Same with Ross Scott but I’ve been waiting for PID & Marathon Game Dungeons for longer.
I don't mind that because I prefer Metroidvanias not to have maps. I want to play Metroidvanias to piece the maps together in my head, not to have a map give me the answer.
@@theblobconsumes4859 The map is a feature inherently part of the standard of definition for the genre; do that yourself, don't use the map function, there, you're done.
I've never seen it before in a game but it feels like a very stupid mechanic I can't think of a place for. Maybe survival horror for tension or a survival game?
I don't inherently hate the idea, but I feel like it would work best in a game with better visual distinctions between rooms. Limiting the player's map usage works if you give them landmarks to navigate with instead
Technically not _their_ actions, considering all the secret alien cutting up bullshit was a secret program most crewmates probably didn't know about. And c'mon, you really except a boomshoot that ends with a escape to Earth to *not* have a sequel where the enemies invade the planet?
When I was playing this there was the question of how the game was going to handle progression, because in Metroidvanias you usually get at least one mobility tool and... well, the game's a pure 2D environment with minimal input buttons. So the teleporter was a neat surprise to me.
It's going to be a prequel where you play as the Scientist and do all the litany of horrific, villainous shit mentioned in the Ship Logs before blasting off into space to escape the angry alien army on your tail
Oh hey civvie, I loved the video! I really like your channel, you inspire me a lot. I would love to recommend Kiss: Psycho Circus: The Nightmare Child is a weird game based on the band Kiss clowning around. Good game!
Those transitions are smooth. Like seriously i loved finding your channel years ago and i make it a point to never miss a vid. Thank you for the work you do Civvie
I am about like a third through this video and i have seen videos and pictures of this game before and i always just thought it was just another modern Wolfenstein clone but in space but this is way more complex and interesting than i originally gave it credit for. So congrats Civvie, you're officially responsible for at least one extra purchase of this game
For some reason this game gives me Compound vives. And that is a good thing. Incidentally, Compound might be a game for Civvie to check if an inmate can smuggle a VR headset inside some unmentionable orifice.
I can confirm incision is good stuff. Revolver double spin. That aside I thought this video was a boomshoot in terms of "It's old". I've never heard of this game but after looking at the crisp sprites and such was confused so I did a search. Boys, we got another boomshoot. Thanks for this Civvie.
I do believe that's maybe the strongest written opening sixty seconds you've ever had in a video. Thanks for such high quality, Civvie, I really do appreciate it.
Wow! Man, thanks for revealing this hidden gem :) It is impressive how a bit of creativity can significantly alter and revitalize the gameplay of a ordinary boom shooter.
i love how these days indie devs dont need big marketing budgets to get the word out just good content creators!. look at concord, all the money in the world and it flops HARD. keep it up civvie just bought the game.
@@r3dtext I didn't hear about it until it had failed so for as far as its effectiveness they could've just paid yongyea a couple million and had him tell me it sucked, they could've saved a ton
@@chainsawplayinagreed. Pathways into Darkness too for another Wolfenstein style one. For System Shock, one must start with the original (preferably the remaster Enhanced Edition or System Shock Portable for the DOS version so you get Mouselook ala the sequel) before the remake.
Proctologist: "Turns out hemorrhoids can stack on top of each other, and the first power point presentation pointed out the resemblance to sand castles hit by water. We try to match exams with pictures of sand castles at our meetings. It's a blast."
So, humans experimented on their young, attempted to assassinate their king and in the process gravely wounded the crown prince, and then stole their precious relic-like gemstones? There better be a sequel where you play as one of the aliens coming back for revenge.
Actually, considering the ship logs that detail the horrific actions of this scientist under orders from this mysterious "general" make it back along with the surviving crew, I think a better idea would be this: You play as an alien who initially comes to Earth seeking revenge upon humanity, but at some point after your arrival, you discover that not only did the rest of humanity find out about what was done to your people, but that they were PISSED about it and ready to hold this "General" accountable for it all. And so, in a desperate bid to avoid any punishment for the actions they orchestrated, the "General" wages a war to try and subjugate humanity under their rule so that they can't be punished. So now the aliens and humans both have some SERIOUS beef with the same guy and his goons.
I appreciate you being fully honest with the flaws of this game, particularly as you did like it-most people give indie games a lighter touch because it feels like you’re punching down if you don’t Also that thing about the shockwave and the slide being inconsistent against the robot boss is an intresting point- turns out fluff text does need to be gotten right and mechanics need to be both intuitive and consistent
I'm so happy for the INCISION mention at the beginning of the video. It's become my favorite so far due to just how punishing and grotesque it is, and the highest difficulty feels justifiably hard. Can't wait.
My doctor told me I've got the castleroids again. Time to find some preperation H and a blowup doughnut cushion. They are each gated behind 4 different types of locks, each one more pointless and annoying than the last.
Hell yeah, I played the demo for this during a next fest a couple years back! Loved my time with it, I'm gonna hold off on watching past the spoiler warning till I get it done myself.
i love the stonekeep-"stone" you used in the beginning. stonekeep is my favourite game of the 90s. and that even if other bangers like doom/halflufe/starcraft/diablo/civilisation/dungeonkeeper etc & many more... came out during that time....
Another Civvie video to brighten my day. I remember first finding you I think from the very first Doom video you did, I don't even think you had 50,000 subs yet (can't remember for sure) and at the time I remember thinking " that's crazy, this guy deserves waaay more subs than that" And now you're getting close to 500,000!
This is a great Castleroid Blakenstone game, it reminds me a lot of the Castlevania mod for Doom, i was expecting to find a grapplehook skill at any time but... Wait, what did u say at end?
Seeing that drone familiar stopping the shield guy from dropping his shield gave me serious Binding of Isaac flashbacks. Saying that, I need to see Civvie play BoI with the new(ish) updates and dlc.
@@LordOfCrabz imo, games like Serious Sam and Painkiller are more classifiable as "Arena Shooters" rather than "Boomer Shooters" I can see the appeal of arena shooters, but I can also see why some would just consider them tedious or exhausting lol
Great vid, Civvie! I'm hoping you'll cover American Mcgee's other game in between Bad Day L.A and Alice Madness Returns: American Mcgee's Grimm. It's actually pretty solid. Also Roger Jackson voices literally every single character in the game. It's a good time killer and the humor is pretty good too. It's a bit repetitive and derivative, but that's because the game initially came out with one episode per time, each episode being a different fairy-tale or classic story.
I've been subbed a long time with bell ON...and this is the 3rd Civvie video in a row where I stumbled on it while scrolling. I NEED to know when a new CV episode comes out
I'd say this game is less Metroidvania and more Megalovania since the game looks like it took its major inspiration from MegaMan Deathmatch. "At least it looks like it did anyways."
one thing i have really come to admire in cv videos is his honesty about difficulty and identifying which end the problems on and accepting sometimes he brings these problems on himself, i know it draws those gg nerd comments but it makes games with a punishing difficulty feel more accessible to my newb skills.
Only getting the story from terminals is very Marathon. While I would love to see Civvie tackle my favorite fps, I feel like he might think Mandie had the definitive review of it. I recall Civvie appeared there.
Hey civvies just spotted you have a new band I scrolled to the end to see if you approve and once I saw that you liked it I paused this video and got that game which fortunately for me is on sale on ps5 and now I'm going to watch this video from the start, I love your work brother thanks for sharing with the world and keep it coming brother👍👍
