something that's fun to mention: according to Wikipedia, Viktor Antonov (the art director behind Half-Life 2 and Dishonoured) got his start with Xatrix...as a map painter on Redneck Rampage.
That’s…. Interesting. Also, I thought Half Life 2’s art direction was oddly similar to Dishonoured, particularly the sections in City 17. Did he also work on the new Wolfenstein games? EDIT: Answered my question with a google search. Yes he did.
I don't know man, but the "piss your pants to revive yourself after getting your head blown off by a shotgun blast" was the most unique thing I've ever seen in a build engine game.
Back then a person's pee was not allowed to be shown.. I'm also not sure if he was pissing in his pants. I never heard water trickling noise when that happens.

Something to note is that Mojo Nixon was actually happy with his work on the Super Mario movie and the movie itself. Which, considering his sense of humor, makes sense.
@@ninjacat230 it was a bit ahead of its time and what the hell else are you to do basing a movie about saving a princess. While ahead of its time its not good still. Its just... there. Hyped to shit and probably would have done better without the mario name attached as a surreal comedy.
@@ninjacat230 it’s a cool world. I think the general thought around the movie is that without the Mario IP it would have done better. Although now I feel the need to go on a tangent on this films history so fair warning. Or not, whatever. Ahem, That all being said the production of the film was actually a nightmare. An interesting nightmare, but a nightmare nonetheless. The script initially was a sort of “high fantasy” type deal. No idea what that meant since not much is known about it since that was all pretty early production stuff. All we do know is that this script is what convinced most of the cast seen in the final product to sign on. You know, bob hoskins, Dennis hopper, John leguizamo, those yahoo’s. But like, right after that, the studio hired on a new director pair. A husband and wife duo who had previously gotten off their success with the max headroom stuff from around the same time. The studio saw that and said “this, we want this for Mario. We want this bald runner style 80s nonsense for a series about a fat dude fighting a dragon whilst on shrooms” Unfortunately for the studio and our new directorial duo. that wasn’t the film anyone but the directors and studio wanted to make. On top of this the pair were apparently quite vitriolic. Very high and mighty. Couple of egos with legs. Constantly clashing heads with dennis hopper and bob hoskins on multiple occasions. This led to bob and John leguizamo both going “screw this” and begin drinking during filming. Yes that’s right, they were both black out drunk for a majority of the filming processes. Famously or rather infamously, this included the beginning scene where Mario and Luigi are driving, yes, DRIVING, to an appointment. And bob hoskins actually drove that car while actually being tipsy. I wish I could make this stuff up. Moving on, Dennis reportedly got into so many fights with them that at one point he yelled at them for almost 2 hours... supposedly. Wether or not the 2 hour long argument did or did not happen, arguments did occur. Often. Years later hoppers son would ask him why he made that movie. Hopper replied “so that I could buy you shoes.” Apparently his son then retorted that he “didn’t need shoes that badly” Again, supposedly. Although I’d like to think this did happen. The end result is a visually impressive film no one and I mean no one wanted to make with a plot that did not fit the tone of its IP. And two very, very bitchy directors who shifted blame onto its cast and crew at the end despite the fact that arguments aside, the cast and crew did everything they were told to do. The actors acted and the crew put together a very pretty movie. End result. Unhappy employees, unhappy Mario fans and unhappy movie goers. And a movie that’s remembered because of mojo Nixon and a decent set design. And nothing else. Anyway that was a lot I just said but To bring this full circle. I can say with 100% assurance and a totally straight face, that Mojo Nixon. M O J O N I X O N. Was a high point of the movie. And most likely the only who had any fun when filming...
@@Keldiur IIRC Originally it was planned to be a fantastical kid's film but then they swapped out directors to the ones who revamped it to what we got despite the protests of literally everyone else involved
I love how this was supposed to be the end of Civvie's running gags (namely the sewer count) but _game developers_ loved them so much they asked him to bring them back
To this day "I'm gonna gitcha boi, I'm gonna gitcha!!" and "Git off mah laynd!" is scarred into my brain with how much I played this as a kid since "I don't own many PC games and I got this for cheap from a closing EB" type of poverty.
A closing EBGames? Yep... Yep. It's kinda sad that I don't have a game store near me anymore, I don't think there's a single store within 40 miles of me.
Admittedly though that one moment where Leonard smacks Bubba with the crowbar while he's wearing Elvis Presley's outfit is probably the only best thing about that mechanic.

I remember finding an old gaming mag recently where they reviewed both Redneck Rampage and Blood. They gave RR a whopping 77/100 and Blood 71/100. Their argument was that Blood was a "second rate Doom clone with tons of gore that will soon be forgotten" while RR has "great levels and is overall a rootin tootin good time". Yeah.
I had to check, the best gaming magazine in Finland gave Blood 80/100 and RR 79/100. And they said that if Blood's episodes were "too similar" and after you had completed one episode, you had seen "everything". Bruh.
@@XenoSpyro watch "Gaming in the Clinton years" it's not that different from what you got on actual gaming magazines, even back then I knew reviewers by name and knew this one guy is full of shit and this other one actually plays games.
@@AFarmerCalledChicken Which is more than could be said for Quake, Doom, Heretic, Goldeneye, or Wolfenstein 3D. Those steaming piles atrophied the entire genre for decades. At least Games like Redneck Rampage and Duke Nukem 3D had enough sense to realize they were crap cookie-cutter FPS games, and at least made the effort to make them enjoyable through humor. This definitely helps break up the monotony of crawling through an arbitrary amount of levels with the same 5-10 weapons with no character progression other than finding those weapons, in the places that the devs put them. I'll take a "That one done blowed up REAL good!" in a mostly boring game over a complete lack of humor in a mostly boring game.

There was one feature in this game that you didn't mention. The toilets are actually usable. Depending on whether you stand before a toilet or sit down (by facing away from one and crouching down on it) on one, you can empty your Alcohol or Gut meter. If your Gut meter is too high, Leonard starts farting which gives away his position to nearby enemies. Drinking alcoholic beverages in this game lowers your Gut meter, and eating the ingame food lowers your Alcohol meter, so it's a bit of a balancing act. Personally I think this game was the first to simulate shooting while drunk. That's got to be gaming history, right?
Pretty on the money, except a) you don't have to face away from the bog, and b) drinking does not reduce Gut, it's eating that reduces Alcohol. A big binge of cheap ass whisky followed by a piss and a piece of cow pie will get Leonard perfectly right.
@@DinnerForkTongue I must have forgotten about how drinking in Redneck Rampage doesn't reduce the Gut meter. At least you can still empty Leonard's Gut meter by using a toilet. I actually like the "usable toilets" feature in this game, but it's too bad that toilets become so rare in the later levels. It's also too bad that the added damage resistance you can get by drinking enough alcohol in Redneck Rampage doesn't appear to have much effect, unlike body armour in "Duke Nukem 3D." The only other game I can think of that let you heal up while relieving a player character's "call of nature" (aside from "Duke Nukem 3D") is "Scarface: The World is Yours" where you can make the playable character, Tony Montana, take a piss against certain walls and recover some health that way.
Civvie has uploads just long enough apart to make you think The Department of Special Corrections is electronically inducing episodes of amnesia via cables wired into your brain.

It was different times for sure.!! This was a very crude and very funny game to play with friends back then, just to see what crazy thing they would say next. (The cus pack did get a bit repetitive tho) It was a great game at the time. Back when you had to work for everything, and it was not just handed to you, to make your way thru the game. It was huge to find that missing 🗝️. Hahaha A time where Things like NetZero, was used to get online for free. and JoeCartoon was huge as well, with Frog in a Blender. LOL. Who remembers that one.? Just different times, that is all. This was all at the very beginning of the internet becoming a thing too... So there is that aspect of it as well. No worries, I bet in 25 years people say the same thing about the games that are popular now... Who knows ..

What makes Civvie great is that every James Rolfe knock off can say why a game is bad. But Civvie goes balls deep and explains every single gameplay detail, why it doesn't work, how it needs to work and compares it with better or worse examples. The redlettermedia of fps games
Except that most people are better than James Rolfe. AVGN Is shit, unlike most youtuber James has regressed not progressed.

Here's a fun thing that can make your experience better. Take the phrase "hitting the broad side of a barn" to the most literal extent in this game. Just broadly aim in the direction of the enemies instead of at them and you'll hit them more consistently. god aren't these game designers wonderful
*"Being the worst level in Redneck Rampage is like being Hollywood producer you're most afraid to leave your kids alone with"* Lmao, Civvie is savage... and right ofc!
Much as I like this game for the aesthetic and art direction I can't even contest that complaint because the level layout is God awful. It often leaves you bumbling around for what feels like hours because you missed a switch that does some random thing at the other end of the map. The enemies are also balanced godawful with anything tougher than a shotgunner being almost unbeatable unless you have plenty of ammo for a high-tier weapon of some kind.
This meme that only rich godless liberals from California can abuse children needs to die already, the attempt to take our eyes off the church is too obvious. But no one's making a documentary about it, so it doesn't exist. Typical self-contradictory conspiracy logic. Where do movies and shows get made, guys? And even if someplace like Georgia or Montreal becomes the new film capital of the world (which looks likely), what is the general political disposition there now? Think about who's editing your information.
The team that made this going on to make Return to Castle Wolfenstein has gotta be the greatest glow up in history. It’s like if Valve made Tekwar before making Half-Life.
Civvie, I just want to take a moment to appreciate the joke you made in the thumbnail by making a double-barreled version of Doom 3's shotgun, because the shotgun in Redneck Rampage is obviously twice as worse. This is what I like about Civvie 11; hacky/subliminal jokes.
It's like the RR shotgun has a duckbill attachment, that weird square cone-like thing for the barrel that you can use in Jagged Alliance 2 to make a shotgun's spread more horizontal... except that it clearly does not have that attachment when you look at it. But it behaves as though it did, for some reason. The mind boggles!
You know, I actually laughed when I saw the "huntin' rifle" was an AK47. That's a pretty good joke I think. Of course, it's Redneck Rampage, but I'll give credit where its due I guess.
Save scumming in any old school FPS should not be frowned upon. Its one of the most advantageous and convenient aspect of PC gaming and the old games are so difficult that its purely for arbitrarily challenging ones self to try to go through without dying
You know, I have moments where I watch Civvie and think, “why is he in super jail” and then we have an episode like this and I go, “oh, now I know why he’s in super jail.”
See Pro Quake: H4MM3R: "Where's Pro Quake, Civvie?" AX3: "Where is Pro Amid Evil, CV-11?" H4MM3R: "Where's the DNF video?" AX3: "Where is D.B. Coooper?" Civvie: "What?!" H4MM3R: "Where's the stolen hydrogen bomb?" Civvie: "I didn't steal a _hydrogen_ bomb!"

In game, it is so extremely loud it is louder than the explosion sound effects. My guess is that Civvie lowered the volume for the sake of not damaging the viewers' hearing.

This game I distinctly remember being the one I was like "Man I GOTTA play that! That's crazy looking!" So I bought it. I saw carmageddon, got that too. My dad being the man he was, bought MDK and Destruction derby and we went home and eventually played the games. I've never seen him get so fucking baffled at how a game worked and it was Redneck Rampage. He got stuck literally because the keys in this game you have to remember what you're seeing is EASIER than what it was back in the day. The keys were even more pixalated and harder to see on the old CRT monitors that were widely available. And because its build you run around looking everywhere. He got into this habit of not only checking every corner but literally hugging walls to make sure he got everything. It could take him an hour to beat a level that could take like 2 minutes if everything worked and was designed correctly.

Fix all the weird bugs, tone down the health of some enemies, color code the keys and make them easier to see, tweak the hunger and alcohol mechanics, maybe put out a fan campaign that's good and actually ends with you finding your pig, and this could be mostly salvaged.
The keys are color coded in BuildGDX. And you can manually edit the damage numbers of enemies (dogs, vixen) by editing the CON files (ADDPHEALTH parameter) and then restarting the level. It's very important to restart the level as your saves use the CON files before modification.

A fun fact (okay, not really) is that Xatrix came up with their own implementation of rooms-over-rooms for RR that wasn't used in any other Build game, including Rides Again. Basically in any situation where you can see two overlapping floors, one of them is built from sprites, like the bridge in Duke's E1M1. But here the sprites are invisible and the normal-looking level geometry is a completely different section of the map the game is rendering instead, as a purely visual effect-only the invisible sprites have actual collision. It's arguably a bigger cludge than what 3D Realms did for Shadow Warrior (which is also more or less what was used in Rides Again), but it also doesn't have SW's limitations on what players can see or traverse in the area above or below them.
something that's fun to mention: according to Wikipedia, Viktor Antonov (the art director behind Half-Life 2 and Dishonoured) got his start with Xatrix...as a map painter on Redneck Rampage.

@@ninjacat230 it’s a cool world. I think the general thought around the movie is that without the Mario IP it would have done better.
Although now I feel the need to go on a tangent on this films history so fair warning. Or not, whatever.
Ahem, That all being said the production of the film was actually a nightmare. An interesting nightmare, but a nightmare nonetheless.
The script initially was a sort of “high fantasy” type deal. No idea what that meant since not much is known about it since that was all pretty early production stuff. All we do know is that this script is what convinced most of the cast seen in the final product to sign on. You know, bob hoskins, Dennis hopper, John leguizamo, those yahoo’s.
But like, right after that, the studio hired on a new director pair. A husband and wife duo who had previously gotten off their success with the max headroom stuff from around the same time. The studio saw that and said “this, we want this for Mario. We want this bald runner style 80s nonsense for a series about a fat dude fighting a dragon whilst on shrooms”
Unfortunately for the studio and our new directorial duo. that wasn’t the film anyone but the directors and studio wanted to make. On top of this the pair were apparently quite vitriolic. Very high and mighty. Couple of egos with legs. Constantly clashing heads with dennis hopper and bob hoskins on multiple occasions.
This led to bob and John leguizamo both going “screw this” and begin drinking during filming. Yes that’s right, they were both black out drunk for a majority of the filming processes.
Famously or rather infamously, this included the beginning scene where Mario and Luigi are driving, yes, DRIVING, to an appointment. And bob hoskins actually drove that car while actually being tipsy. I wish I could make this stuff up.
Moving on, Dennis reportedly got into so many fights with them that at one point he yelled at them for almost 2 hours... supposedly. Wether or not the 2 hour long argument did or did not happen, arguments did occur. Often. Years later hoppers son would ask him why he made that movie. Hopper replied “so that I could buy you shoes.” Apparently his son then retorted that he “didn’t need shoes that badly”
Again, supposedly. Although I’d like to think this did happen.
The end result is a visually impressive film no one and I mean no one wanted to make with a plot that did not fit the tone of its IP. And two very, very bitchy directors who shifted blame onto its cast and crew at the end despite the fact that arguments aside, the cast and crew did everything they were told to do. The actors acted and the crew put together a very pretty movie.
End result. Unhappy employees, unhappy Mario fans and unhappy movie goers. And a movie that’s remembered because of mojo Nixon and a decent set design. And nothing else.
Anyway that was a lot I just said but To bring this full circle. I can say with 100% assurance and a totally straight face, that Mojo Nixon.
M O J O
N I X O N.
Was a high point of the movie. And most likely the only who had any fun when filming...

I remember finding an old gaming mag recently where they reviewed both Redneck Rampage and Blood. They gave RR a whopping 77/100 and Blood 71/100. Their argument was that Blood was a "second rate Doom clone with tons of gore that will soon be forgotten" while RR has "great levels and is overall a rootin tootin good time". Yeah.
I had to check, the best gaming magazine in Finland gave Blood 80/100 and RR 79/100. And they said that if Blood's episodes were "too similar" and after you had completed one episode, you had seen "everything".

@@AFarmerCalledChicken Which is more than could be said for Quake, Doom, Heretic, Goldeneye, or Wolfenstein 3D. Those steaming piles atrophied the entire genre for decades. At least Games like Redneck Rampage and Duke Nukem 3D had enough sense to realize they were crap cookie-cutter FPS games, and at least made the effort to make them enjoyable through humor. This definitely helps break up the monotony of crawling through an arbitrary amount of levels with the same 5-10 weapons with no character progression other than finding those weapons, in the places that the devs put them.

Brilliant design.
There was one feature in this game that you didn't mention. The toilets are actually usable. Depending on whether you stand before a toilet or sit down (by facing away from one and crouching down on it) on one, you can empty your Alcohol or Gut meter. If your Gut meter is too high, Leonard starts farting which gives away his position to nearby enemies. Drinking alcoholic beverages in this game lowers your Gut meter, and eating the ingame food lowers your Alcohol meter, so it's a bit of a balancing act.
Personally I think this game was the first to simulate shooting while drunk. That's got to be gaming history, right?
Everyone talks about GTA4's drunk-o-vision when you tried to drive drunk, Redneck Rampage beat them to the punch!
@@roberte2945 Don't forget how in GTA4 you couldn't shoot firearms when drunk, but in Redneck Rampage you can!
Boomer shooter? More like Sims
Pretty on the money, except a) you don't have to face away from the bog, and b) drinking does not reduce Gut, it's eating that reduces Alcohol. A big binge of cheap ass whisky followed by a piss and a piece of cow pie will get Leonard perfectly right.
@@DinnerForkTongue I must have forgotten about how drinking in Redneck Rampage doesn't reduce the Gut meter. At least you can still empty Leonard's Gut meter by using a toilet.
I actually like the "usable toilets" feature in this game, but it's too bad that toilets become so rare in the later levels. It's also too bad that the added damage resistance you can get by drinking enough alcohol in Redneck Rampage doesn't appear to have much effect, unlike body armour in "Duke Nukem 3D."
The only other game I can think of that let you heal up while relieving a player character's "call of nature" (aside from "Duke Nukem 3D") is "Scarface: The World is Yours" where you can make the playable character, Tony Montana, take a piss against certain walls and recover some health that way.

I'm rewatching this while playing Halo 1, the titular level "Halo," and the soundtrack when you exit the underground is playing as Civvie's showing the piss button.
That soundtrack makes the piss button more epic than it has any right to be.

25:20 When I played this as a kid, I thought my pirated copy had the cutscenes cut short to save space, but nope - they were made that way. What the fuck.
How did you get your hands on a pirated copy of Redneck Rampage as a kid?
@@TheKidsAreSOnotOkay easy, a copy from a friend.
But Back then it was normal that randomly in Windows 98, you'll get some crazy error on your computer cuz it was missing some random file... So you would have to go to your friend's house with a floppy disk, copy that same random file from his computer, bring it home and load it back on your computer where it said it was missing, all just to get Win98 up and running again. Haha. So getting copies of stuff from friends was a must, and all the rage.!! Hahah the stories we could tell...

@@cawthorne6992 That hit closer than I'd have liked. Also: Twilight-CDs. Burnt CD-ROM stuffed to the gills with games, usually with the cutscenes removed so you'd have no idea what was happening - but it didn't matter, because it was the only way for us kids with poor and/or technophobic families to be able to play more than the one game a year we managed to get our grandfathers to gift us at Christmas.

How is everyone so shocked about there being a Waco reference in this game? Civvie already did his Postal 2 vids and THAT had a Waco level too, complete with ATF agents.
Hell, want a modern example? Rainbow Six Siege has a goddamn Waco-inspired level.
Postal 2 came out in 03 but RR came out in 97, only four years after the siege.
Wait, WHAT
I didnt know about R6!
@@nemtudom5074 the map in R6 is called Oregon if you were wondering.
@@gagelachance4999 I remember the first time that map appeared for me and I said to my friend "Is that fucking Waco?!" Before immediately googling to confirm that it in fact was. I blame Postal 2 for me knowing the rough shape of the Waco building.
What map is it?
Each time I watch this the more I'm convinced Nightdive needs to port it. Fix all the weird bugs, tone down the health of some enemies, color code the keys and make them easier to see, tweak the hunger and alcohol mechanics, maybe put out a fan campaign that's good and actually ends with you finding your pig, and this could be mostly salvaged.
The keys are color coded in BuildGDX. And you can manually edit the damage numbers of enemies (dogs, vixen) by editing the CON files (ADDPHEALTH parameter) and then restarting the level. It's very important to restart the level as your saves use the CON files before modification.
Civvie:"I'm in Waco now"
"This is the AFT"
Me: OH SHIT DID THEY JUST DO THAT
I like how civvie just... Showed the whole scene, the set up, and played it straight. ..growing up to see the waco siege was weird. And I don't enjoy reliving it lol
@@DizzySpark yeah I wasn't alive back then but I bet it would be shitty reliving it

I'm confused. The federal government just killed a bunch of people in a cult? Can I have some help comprehending this?
Oh God my dad loved this game.
You ever heard that saying? Something about "the hardest day in a son's life is when he realizes his father is just a man"? I think Frank Herbert put it in Dune.
Yeah, when my dad happily showed me this game that was the day I no longer saw my dad as a role model.
My dad to this day loves Daikatana to death and bits. I don't base myself off of him much.
Thank god my dad's favourite was RTCW
based father
You father has some weed taste
classic episode, the part where the final countdown comes in with fart sounds slays me everytime
Mojo Nixon went out like a hero
Ok the part where the ATF blows up Waco is almost a good parody
Poor Katie, I don't think we've realized how those Gordan Ramsey Clips have affected her...
Shame.
My dad still has this game living rent free in his head. And now i understand him more through this playthrough
When you showed the 'ending' to rides again I actually said "I'm sorry what?" out loud. To myself, in an empty room. Actually shocked thats what they did.
The moonshine item, despite being a carbon copy of Steroids of Duke3D, also resets your alcohol and gut levels.
Not that it's needed. Alcohol on green reduces damage, and all you have to do to get rid of all gut is hit the crouch bind on top of a toilet bowl.
@@DinnerForkTongue I always thought alcohol gave you more auto-aim, while food gave damage resistance? Seem to recall that in the manual somewhere. Not that it matters at this point, I suppose.
@@hazukichanx408
The RR manual was fulla crap in several spots, but you're right, it's of no concern almost 30 years later.
I kinda want to buy the japanese version just to suffer more
There can't be one?!?!
There's a Japanese version of this? Wtf
Shiti foruku.
If you do plese upload your gameplay
Here's my comment to be kept aware of any developments. Anybody got that footy of the Japanese version of RR?
I remember being extremely frustrated as a kid. I could not figure out you had to hit Bubba in the head with the crowbar to get to the next level. It made so little sense it didn't even occur to me to try.
7:45 for some reason, the impact of that "NO" gave me the hardest laugh of the video
Same.
My dad shook Mojo Nixon's hand when he went to one of his concerts.
Would sound better if you told people mojo Nixon shook your dad's hand...just saying
Thats the funniest depiction of the waco tragedy i’ve ever seen
"Kingpin, which I'm told is a good game"
Civvie, you have been lied to.
SHUT UP
yeah, because it's not a good game. it's a GREAT game.
@Stix N' Stones Short. Loading times were awful on contemporary pcs. As I remember enemies were also too tanky.
@Stix N' Stones combat sucks. enemies' weapons have perfect accuracy and almost no spread, making longer range combat very bad for the player. escort missions. missions braking bugs sometimes. useless weapons and upgrades. boss fights suck. and the level design isnt really that good, it gets overhyped a lot. the game does have its good sides tho. the enemy pathfinding and level navigation are super good. nothing stops or even slows these guys down. ledges, ladders... they go trough everything probably faster than i can. and the multiplayer is fantastic.
Here's something I just noticed but missed cause Civvie only briefly says it. At 10:19 he picks up "cowpies" that when used heal you and fill the Gut meter.
In case you didn't grow up in farm country, cowpie is slang for a pile of cow poop. I guess Leonard is literally just eating cow shit. Classy.
holy shit I can't believe that waco scene is in the game. That came out of nowhere
Civvie: Makes a fake game just to torture himself
Also Civvie:
Jeez, that Wako level... That's like that scene in spec ops the line where you white phosphorus bomb those civilians except if it was both real AND played off for laughs only like 5 years after the actual event.
No, it’s like using white phosphorus as a scorestreak in Modern Warfare 2019
hey why not, the atf were making jokes and posing for pictures minutes after they burned those kids alive
@@uppishcub1617 and one of those guys that took those pictures is the nominee for atf director now
A better comparison would be if the "No Russian" level from COD MW2 had been played for laughs
@@samtinkle9076 what was bad about that? Cod scorestreaks have always contained at least one warcrime. Napalm strike, nuke, cluster bomb strikes, and only now people whine about wP? Get the hell outta here and enjoy the game.
A fun fact (okay, not really) is that Xatrix came up with their own implementation of rooms-over-rooms for RR that wasn't used in any other Build game, including Rides Again. Basically in any situation where you can see two overlapping floors, one of them is built from sprites, like the bridge in Duke's E1M1. But here the sprites are invisible and the normal-looking level geometry is a completely different section of the map the game is rendering instead, as a purely visual effect-only the invisible sprites have actual collision. It's arguably a bigger cludge than what 3D Realms did for Shadow Warrior (which is also more or less what was used in Rides Again), but it also doesn't have SW's limitations on what players can see or traverse in the area above or below them.
So, the invisible sprites act like portals or render targets? ... whichever terminology you prefer
