Someone answered before

I'd like to but the current code of NXBlood is very unoptimized and does not support OpenGL yet
my current plan is to scrap the current port and wait for a new release of NBlood to make sure everything is implemented and a sudden pull from the eduke32 upstream won't cause me hours of trouble anymore

Any news?

I wish to play this game in switch, its my favourite game in my childhood

Unable to find Blood on Steam. Only Blood 2 and Blood - Fresh Supply are available.

You have a fix for the joysticks moving around so fast

Hope this gets updated one day, but op has been gone for months

The entire GitHub project is gone. Closed.

Guy was only trying stuff out and experimenting. Think he said he was in college so he most likely is focusing on that.

Hopefully a good port of Blood GDX or Nblood happens from somewhere else.

It's a pity...

Someone please port Blood to Wii U as well. I’m dying to play it on console.

 

[mathew77]

Ehm, any way to run in under FW 12.x.x, guys?

The guy removed the source code from GitHub. The game was basically unplayable in its early state anyway. Too many bugs and problems.

Hopefully someone can port Raze instead eventually. That supports Duke 3D/Shadow Warrior/Blood all in one.

or hopefully Nightdive Studios ports Blood: Fresh Supply to Switch

Sadly never going to happen. Atari own the rights to Blood and Atari wont even allow Nightdive to patch the pc version of the game that has bugs and glitches. ND wants to do it but Atari wont give them the greenlight to. Why? Who knows. Corporate nonsense, money, red tape.

Hi

Is there anything new in this project?

 

[Purple_Shyguy]

Lol it's been dead for years.

If you want to play Blood on Switch you can install Android to an SD card and install "Raze Touch" to play Blood/Shadow Warrior/Powerslave.

I’m pretty sure those support android now as well assuming they are chipped

Better late than never but to give some info on the status of this:
Its *very* dead.

I deleted the code while cleaning my repos, but there is a version that rebased the commits on new-ish commits https://github.com/aagallag/NXBlood

I stopped working on this initially because of lack of interest and me being a pretty novice coder at the time and having a hard time graphing the eduke32 internals.
The last thing that overflowed the barrel was devkitPro just being a massive pain to work with, so thats where this stands.
