Blowout is a game that takes a classic gameplay concept and updates it with modern graphics and sounds. This game is a side-scrolling platform shooter. The graphics are 3-dimensional polygons, but the action stays almost entirely in a 2-dimensional plane.
The setting for the game is a space station that has been overrun by hostile aliens. You play as a soldier who must single-handedly defeat the aliens to save the day.
You travel around each level in a non-linear fashion. You have to fight your way through hordes of enemies to find keys, flip switches, use elevators, and then ultimately face off against a big boss at the end.
Blowout , released on the PlayStation 2 in 2000, is an action-packed adventure that combines fast-paced shooting with challenging platforming. With its unique blend of old-school and new-school gameplay elements, it's a must-play for fans of classic gaming.

Manual
Game Guide
Extracted from the original game manual
This is a sci-fi first-person shooter where players control Marshall "Dutch" Cane, a law enforcement officer, as he battles homicidal clones and genetic horrors on a battle platform. The goal is to eliminate the mutated clones and their leader, who have taken over the ship and threaten the solar system. Players will navigate the ship, fighting both biological threats and automated defense systems.
Story
Jump Into Hell
The battle platform Honour Guard is now under the command of homicidal clones and crawls with a menagerie of genetic horrors. Marshall "Dutch" Cane wants to join the party.
Cane is a member of the Jump Posse, a law enforcement organization that regulates battle platforms crewed by M1-2 human clones. Posse members are heavily armed and can respond quickly in super fast jump ships.
The Properties are commercial interests existing on the very fringe of galactic human influence. The battle platforms guard these interests. It is here that the human clone first demonstrated profitability.
The Honour Guard crew's DNA originated from the original combat crew. Four generations of Honour Guard clones have served flawlessly, fending off invasion by vandals or highjackers attacking the Properties.
M1-2 Clones
M1-2 types are the ultimate in worker bio-systems. Able to self-replicate when needed, they promise the ultimate dream in human resource management. Genetic engineering insures that emotion and personal ambition are filtered out of the final product.
These humans without souls have transcended legal concerns about human rights. They work, attack, defend or die without shedding a tear.
The Outbreak
Something went wrong. While defending an incursion on a fuel outpost by alien Xenos invaders, a gunner clone named C.F. Stephens (ver. 4) was exposed to a genome virus carried by one of the attackers.
The clone's first reaction was to become self-aware and, like his original, voraciously ambitious. Stephens quickly learned how to clone himself with the intent of creating a personal army.
The virus spread with each replication and DNA can take only so much abuse. The Stephens clones, already tortured and psychotic, exploded into monstrous life forms. They slaughtered every other clone on the ship.
Now C.F. Stevens is in command of Honour Guard and his hideous offspring are about to populate the solar system. They'll have to go through "Dutch" Cane first.
