Development:Blood

This page details development materials of Blood.

To do: Content from the vault in the 2025 Blood: Refreshed Supply remaster (preferably stuff NOT from the leaked February 1996 prototype or final game). Might want to wait for the prototypes release before adding/removing anything from here. Cover the leaked source code from February 6th, 1996 (included with the leaked prototype) and July 22nd, 1996 (code released by x0r_jmp in 2023) here. Early version of CP03: Gothic Library from Cryptic Passage (called LIB264.MAP) by Shawn Swift on November 12th, 2020. Includes some stuff not seen in the final like a basement.

All sorts of unused development terrors from the crypt for Blood have managed to find their way to the public over the years, including two early versions of the currently unreleased source code.

Early Graphics

Some development sprites for Blood were posted by artist Kevin Killstrom in the Blood Discord server in 2022.
