On other news, the PSVita’s port of the Blake Stone: Aliens of Gold engine (BStone Vita) has received a pretty beefy update which fixes a long list of minor yet noticeable issues. If you don’t know what Blake Stone is, it’s a FPS game released in 1993 based on Wolfenstein 3D’s engine with some enhancements like interactive map elements and textured floors/ceilings.
If you’re a fan of Wolfenstein 3D then Blake Stone: Aliens Of Gold is a title you should probably check out even more so that the Vita port received an update full of fixes and extra polish!
In it, you play as a British intelligence agent that’s trying to stop Dr. Pyrus Goldfire from taking over the world using genetically-engineered aliens, humans and mutants.
The aforementioned beefy update, with version number 0.3, brings about the following:
- Functionality to choose between previous/next weapon was added and could be triggered by touching the touchscreen’s top area and hitting ‘O’ (circle button)
- Joystick sensitivity can now be adjusted in-game
- The X/O buttons now function as expected in menus and the sound volume menu got a cosmetic fix
- Some crashes and out of memory errors were fixed
- Fadein tearing no longer occurs and the game’s engine was updated to version 1.1.13 (the upstream version of BStone)
- The save format changed so previous saves aren’t compatible!
