Abuse 2025 is a modern port of the cult classic mid 90s side-scrolling shooter that pioneered mouse+keyboard controls in platformers. Originally developed by Crack dot Com and later released as public domain, the game was notable for its Lisp-based scripting engine which powered its AI and level design.
This port builds on previous open source efforts to make the game fully playable on modern systems. It has features like network play, high-resolution widescreen support, gamepad compatibility, and improved audio. The project includes the original game assets while maintaining compatibility with the library of community-created content from the past 30 years.
