"Doom" läuft als PDF mit 12 Bildern pro Sekunde

Unermüdliche Programmierer fahnden ständig nach Plattformen und Geräten, auf die "Doom" noch nicht portiert wurde. Nun wurde "Doom" als PDF umgesetzt.

@eniko please links to all of it. I know for you it's mildly traumatic, but I would loooooooooove some good fun.

My take is the opposite of the hypothetical authors. The fact that I have only like 1.5 games to play — #Undertale and #InvisibleInc, and maybe #DeusEx and #Thief (?!) is the legacy of white cis male fetishist #IdSoftware company and their senseless #DOOM (nb! I love #doomRL, I don't know what's wrong with me. nb! I've completed #DOOM, and I kind of liked it. But it actually contributes to the point).

The logical continuation of this were horrible, misogynistic #DukeNukem and racist #ShadowWarrior (I **loved** #ShadowWarrior as a kid, because I didn't see racism behind the veil of diversity, nor could I understand English enough to "appreciate" main character's "jokes").

Of course, certain people would miss this descent into the circles of hell (no pun intended)!

I want to live in a world where none of this have happened and Carmack was at most a hippie, not a filthy libertarian.

CatacombGL for AmigaOS 4

Hi there,

Thank you for visiting my blog. 🙂

George Sokianos a.k.a. Walkero has returned with a brand new port! This time he has brought over Catacomb 3D and the Catacomb Adventure series to AmigaOS 4.

Catacomb 3D was originally released for PC back in 1991. It was developed by iD Software, Inc., known for classics like Wolfenstein 3D and Doom. It is a first-person fantasy shooter.
