Shifting The Rift, to the forum...
Very good old game. Quake graphics, totally different play. Try Demo if unsure https://www.gog.com/en/game/chasmtherift_demo
One of my favorite FPS games, I love that the bosses aren't just bullet-sponges but require you to take them on in a different way.
Nice

Apparently the spam was bad enough to blacklist the word s#?!*l.
That's one way to fight spam bots I guess, not the most elegant one, but it is a way. :P

Better than nothing to prevent spam, but man that's annoying :P I had a post with the phrase "old-scho ol" and took like 10 min trying to figure out why my post wasn't going through, completely unexpected that the word "scho ol" was the issue.

True :)
Yeah, I saw Hustlefan struggling with a post in the 'what did just update' thread. If you don't know what the cause is of not being able to post, figuring out what the issue is can be a real pain. :D
Very nice to see this still being improved. Guess I'll replay it on the new custom difficulty soon™.
Still overpriced.
SNEG rocks hard. Already have all of the games in their sale. Looking forward to the "coming soon" releases and everything after those.
I really had a great time playing this game. I hope for a sequel someday :)
Thank you so much for making this update available on GOG too, and on top of that at the same time as on other game stores!

;]

I'm really looking forward to try these new small tweaks out. Please do keep these coming... and (I know this is probably asking too much, but I can't help myself) PLEASE bring back more of Action Form's titles! I would be quite happy with just one more for now (like say... Vivisector: Beast Within :D).
