If you are a fan of games like Quake and Redneck Rampage,

Blood, Heretic, Half-Life, Doom, Duke Nukem 3D,

and any number of other mid-to-late-'90s first-person shooters,

than this is something that I think you should keep an eye out for

so that's why this is not going to be a full review quite yet.

These are just my initial thoughts on the project

sent to me pro bono with no strings attached.

So yeah, I've been keeping an eye on this for a while,

and just generally getting psyched to talk about it,

for this kind of first-person throwback shooter on the PC

Now I've really enjoyed games like Doom 2016.

They had elements of old-school shooters in them but,

you know, that was a very thoroughly modern game with old-school roots.

but that leaned more towards being a throwaway experience for me.

Largely due to stuff like it's over reliance on procedural generation

and run-die-rinse-repeat Roguelight-style gameplay.

And while there's nothing wrong with those type of games,

and that's why I think it's pretty special.

Dusk's inspirations are very clear from the beginning

with a lovingly recreated MS-DOS-style startup sequence.

This continues into the options menu as well

where you can really tailor it to look as halfway modern

and even emulates lower resolution modes than that,

with options to disable bilinear filtering

and alter plenty of things like weapon bobbing and movements and

camera things that make a lot of sense for games like this

because otherwise you tend to get pretty motion sick, or at least I do.

playing at 640 x 480 and 85 Hertz on a CRT.

I mean, it really is the gameplay itself that feels

You're not dealing with a bunch of procedurally generated levels

But you're also not dealing with more linear levels

that lock you into a room until you defeat all the monsters

No, these are pretty nonlinear, wide-open,

that rely on keycards to get through and it is

very much out of the '90s, but not too much so.

of old-school first-person shooter level design

and slightly newer old-school first-person shooter level design,

is that while it relies on keycards and backtracking,

it's not to a degree that made me super irritated

or got me stuck for more than a couple minutes.

There are plenty of secret places to find

and monster closets and all that kind of stuff.

But it's not nearly as maze-like as certain shooters,

and it's also not as confusing as certain ones.

There's only one level that kind of got on my nerves

as far as a lot of the textures being really similar

But other than that, I mean every area felt distinct enough.

And the satisfaction extends to the weapons as well,

which is a pretty typical first-person shooter load-out from the '90s.

You've got your melee, your pistols, shotguns.

You got your super shotgun, your machine gun, your rocket launchers.

Or, well, your explosive launchers, there's different kinds.

And some sort of magical energy like weapons,

of a lot of weapons from this time period.

You're practically just shooting all the monsters
