Well roger me backwards, there's a game I'd not thought about in a long old time. Though I do occasionally still catch myself whistling the tune from the opening cutscene, apparently subconsciously.

Tripp Andre

Hey Civvie. Catching up on this. This is a love letter by you, which is cool. I'll add it to my summer list. Cruelty Squad II.

Thought I was seeing things but I'm not. End of first scene with Mevin shows a flash of the Fun Zone's sign in Italian for like 3/4th of a second, then reverts to English. It's weird.

Joseph Milsome

Civvie, this is legit one of the best videos you've ever made. The jokes, the editing, the stream of consciousness references... flawless. You should play Boltgun next, I think you'll like it.

I kind of agree. I feel like there's a lot of interest in the storytelling potential, what with the meta narrative of Zane's character, etc. But I feel, as a shooter, it doesn't really pick up until the last few levels and in general, it feels hard to criticise. Since it'll forever have that "it's supposed to be jank" on its side. I dunno.

This game is a certified fever dream. I have to take breaks every couple levels, because it’s genuine jank-emulation overload. I don’t know if I love it, but there’s things to love in it.

I'm betting the love interest's name is spelt Steffanie because the person who made/wrote this didn't know how to spell Stephanie. when he was in highschool..

Dumb joke idea: people say they want footage of the retro 40K FPS, so talk about that retro 40K FPS. No, not Boltgun. Or Necromunda. Or Darktide. Or Deathwing. I mean Space Hulk from 1993.

Daymn this gave me Normality vibes. 😃 And although I’m exactly 40, I’m happy(…?) to report that I could still vibe along with the feels - the fear & loathing of self at the tail end of adolescence. Fart and poop jokes: check. More than a loving fistful of Beavis & Butthead: check.

The fact that Zane's character model appears to be wearing JNCOs tells me pretty much everything I need to know about this game, life, the universe, and everything.

Man, I'd love to watch you're video on it right now, but I've got to play through the game myself first. I've been looking forward to this one for a long time!

Justin Force

As someone who is turning 33 in August I agree with you so much about everything in this video lol

Merjia

Early review access?? You’re like a real YouTube reviewer now!

Don’t know why but I get mad redneck rampage feels from this game

Bryan David

LOL I died laughing at the walmart edited version of significant other. Damn Civvie.. you know how to make a dude feel old.

Space Tiger Steven

Thank you Civvie! Sorry about the money!! New card info has been updated!! DX

Joseph Vazquez

I remember playing the first Alone in the Dark, OLD school one that predates Resident evil and its tank controls back on those random Discs. Good times.

Joseph Vazquez

holy hell forgot all about that game. Blast from the past, I remember playing this a bunch on PSX... ahh midway...

Seed of Power

Thanks Civvie

November Delta

Mmm, yes. Keep that good stuff coming

Yarden

Yay! I am super excited for this!

Mario_bland

The only thing that would've made this even more edgy early 2000s is if Civvie rocked a red yankee colander for the video (though that would probably get mistaken for something else.)

Valora Inverse

This gives me such flashbacks to being like 12 years old and playing shit off PC Gamer demo discs I had no business playing late at night.

Creamygoodness

This was supposed to be a post about Boltgun. I agree with the guy that said "Boltgun".

Zylinderkatze

"Boltgun." -Boltgun

Finn Kempers

Zane's mom has got it going on

Muteleight

I read the title and thought this was a video about this Aerosmith themed rail shooter I remember playing in an arcade when I was like, 9. Turns out that was called Revolution X and is totally different.

Dirk Hoderin

Oh, so the beef with the guy on twitter was a bit. I was genuinely confused. This should be fun, I love Civvie videos about weird new stuff. By the way, thanks for the heads up on HROT. Been playing it recently and it's great.
