Essential improvements
BloodGDX
- BloodGDX is a reverse-engineered port of Blood. It's written in Java, thus supports any OS that can run Java Runtime. It requires the original 1.21 version of the game and can run custom maps and episodes made for the original game. It is in alpha state and still contains some bugs.
Blood Launcher
- The One Unit Whole Blood Launcher is recommended for the best experience. It includes a large number of optional modifications and custom maps.
bMouse
- bMouse is a DOS extension which improves mouse looking by removing the mouse filter which causes issues related to both axis not updating properly.

BloodCM
- BloodCM is a remake of the game in a Duke Nukem 3D source port, eDuke32. It has inconsistencies in physics, AI, and secrets compared to the original. But is recommended if you would like a part of the experience at high resolutions and frame-rates.
