Holoduke
From Duke Nukem Wiki
| |||||||||||||||||
The Holoduke is an inventory item in Duke Nukem 3D and its ports.
[edit] Description
The Holoduke is a device that projects a fully realistic image of its user in the position it is used in (it drops to ground level if used in the air). It rotates depending on its user's direction (see "Trivia" below), but does not copy any other action its user does.
If used underwater, the Holoduke will appear as a swimming Duke, even if the player if above water. The opposite is also true.
[edit] Trivia
- The direction the Holoduke faces in depends on the direction the player is facing. The player and the Holoduke will both face the same direction when looking up or down the the main y-axis of the level (up/down), but the Holoduke rotates in the opposite direction to the player (so when the player faces left, the Holoduke faces right, thus they face each other; and vice versa).
- The Holoduke is widely regarded as the most useless inventory item in the game, due to its ineffectiveness in single player.
[edit] The Holoduke in other games
- The Holoduke features in every port and expansion pack of Duke Nukem 3D.
