420 Blaze It 2 may be a joke, but there’s a solid shooter buried beneath the memes

While I was waiting to try the demo of 420 Blaze It 2 at PAX Australia, a guy passing mentioned he’d played the original Game of the Year: 420 Blaze It on his school laptop, a sentence designed to make people feel old. “You should absolutely not have been playing it on a school laptop,” one of the devs told him, and he was right.

420 Blaze It was a parody of shooter killcam montages that enjoyed a viral moment in 2014. A free game designed for the 7 Day FPS Jam, it overlaid every hit with more text than a Korean reality show, shouting RESPECKS and DID U SEE IT, presenting gifs of Sanic and that one dancing cartoon dog, and blasting dubstep. A decade later it’s back with an upcoming sequel that has its own Steam page and a demo you can download and try for yourself.
