Ricochet hasn't recieved the love it deserves. We've been waiting on Ricochet 2 for decades. The fans need closure.
You just can't update perfection.
But there's "Ricochet: Source" out there as a mod
I worked on it with some people half a life(time) ago. It was playable but we never really finished it properly
I'll be straight with you - I never played Ricochet. I was just doing the joke from that one guy who asked Gabe about it that one time. But the fact you ported it to the Source engine is honestly really cool.
If you're ever at a lan party, I'd say: check it out. It's quite fun and can get quite challenging on fuller levels.
It's how I stumbled on it decades ago
Speaking of Richochet and love reminds me of a guy I halfway knew in my youth. He had the bright idea to jerk off a quick one in the middle of a LAN party (I know, right?). After he inevitably got caught (despite being somewhat secluded) he alt tabbed from whatever grainy porn clip he had up straight into Ricochet just as he.. well ya know.
He never came to another LAN party again, but 20+ years later he's still known as the guy who jerked off to Richochet.
I mean who hasn't at least once?
