Wow that is really neat and unexpected. Thanks for the link :)

Fucking awesome!

Hopefully a source-port project isn't too far behind.

"Nice to know that those old 3.5″ floppies retain data for so long!”
Wow, I wonder how many other old games still have their source-codes lying around on floppies in a box in some storage room.

Awesome! I had been tracking it down and contacting them for years to release it. Hadn't heard from them in awhile, so I'm very glad to see this.

Neat. Now some industrious coders can write a source port to improve graphics and control!

Depends really on if there's anyone out there who still cares about Blake Stone. Shadow Warrior has had it's source-code public since 2007 I believe and still really only has one coder developing a port for it.

I know that the DieHard Wolfers community (dedicated to Wolf3D and related games) will be happy. There are a few Wolf3D source ports that are good. I'm sure that at least one will be modified to support Blake Stone. I wonder how much of the AoG code is in there. I see a couple files related to it.
