There’s a scythe that cuts reality in Amid Evil’s expansion

It’s been a good couple of days for retro shooter fans, what with PowerSlave Exhumed, Cultic, Core Decay, and John Romero’s Sigil 2 being in the news. Let’s add one more to the pile. The Black Labyrinth, an expansion for the game whose website redirects from icantbelieveitsnothexen.com, has a gameplay trailer. 

The Black Labyrinth will serve as a prequel to Amid Evil, containing new levels, new enemies, and new weapons as well as “new Andrew Hulshult placeholder music”. The trailer shows a scythe thing that can shoot a row of purple energy blasts or just slice open reality and strand enemies in the void. I guess if your base game comes with a staff that shoots planets you need to go large for the DLC. There’s also a pair of spiked gauntlets. I figure they’ll probably let you punch enemies through time so a dinosaur eats them or something.
