The History of Ken Silverman's Build Engine

As the title suggests, this is a video about the history of Ken Silverman's Build Engine. It's the game engine that was used in first-person shooters like Duke Nukem 3D, Blood, Shadow Warrior and Redneck Rampage.

Our modern games today probably would be a lot different (in a bad way) if it weren't for Ken Silverman's accomplishments.

Ken Silverman was able to create a game engine with just 15 years old that could be as powerful as one of the John Carmack's engines. John Carmack itself. So, what if Ken develops another engine now? He should try so because I'd like to see the most powerful engine in the world now

I love unlisted videos.

Damn, this video is excellent. Shadow Warrior, Rise of the Triad, Quake, Quake II, Blood, and, Flight Simulator versions 4, 5, and 6, enabled me to learn rudimentary programming, 3D editing, networking, and basic computer maintenance skills. In addition to the awesome features and graphics of Blood, specifically, and all these games, generally, multiplayer in ROTT, Quake, and Shadow Warrior changed PC gaming for those truly nerdy enough to know what I'm talking about. 11 characters remaining. 1
