The year is 1996 and you're given $500k to promote the "boring" cereal Chex. What do you do? Apparently the right answer was: license the DOOM engine and make a fps to give away inside of Chex cereal boxes. #gamedev #doom #chexquest

24 hours feel like so little yet too much

Oh hell yes!

Network test success. Slowly lifting the GZDoom netcode curse. Ongoing behind the scenes netcode improvements, and improved it has. 6 players across the world, no connection troubles (OGs remember the struggle), SMOOTH prediction (feels like playing single player), no jitter/rubberbanding. #GZDoom

his full name is sandstone petersen, but they call him sandy for short

Get it from their official Bandcamp. This is great. adamzerarez.bandcamp.com/album/the-do...

BRAZILIAN DRUG DEALER 3 might be a masterpiece.

kmxexii is back and reviewing Doom maps again! The latest review digs up the old 1 Monster community project... which contains some of the first publicly available maps by both Dragonfly (of Eviternity fame) and yours truly. onemandoom.blogspot.com/2025/02/1-mo...

Holy shit this is awesome! One of the single coolest intro sequences I've seen.

PipeWire Is Doing An Excellent Job Handling Audio/Video Streams On The Linux Desktop - https://www.phoronix.com/news/PipeWire-State-2025

Discord on linux/wayland has a really annoying issue where if you try to share your desktop audio, it'll also share discord's output (since it just shares whatever is going through your headphones, kinda dumb) today was the day i learned just how cool PipeWire is, you can just do this by default!??

Forgot to share this earlier but the man, the myth, the legend Ahoy has blessed us with a new video youtu.be/92eifEm0m7w?...

Headless Chicken's 🐔 11th Release Candidate (don't ask what happened to 10) is now up on the DOOM + DOOM II KEX Engine Port! Currently in the process of getting the IDGames archive version updated too.

don't underestimate your subconscious need for a wide range of experiences if you spend weeks doing the same thing in the same environment in the same way, you're at risk of forgetting the broader world of life, art, and people. it can get really isolating, and exacerbates burnout

To any #classicdoom mappers who are looking for music to score their maps, I've just added three new MIDIs to my collection on Doomworld - feel free to use any of these with credit, and make sure to let me know so I can see the cool stuff you've given my music to! www.doomworld.com/forum/topic/...

Two new sets of Weapon Carousel icons, now available on the Doomworld thread. Attempt Cereson, by Demonic Meatball. Nostalgic Entropy: Neo Retro, by @ashtralfiend.bsky.social www.doomworld.com/forum/post/2...

Saw a feral cat with some beautiful eyes.

NTSYNC driver support heads to Wine in a new Merge Request #Wine #Linux #LinuxGaming #OpenSource

Nothing about improving the state of the mod browser unfortunately. I've heard something's in the works, but it would be nice for them to acknowledge that they're looking into it.

so are yall gonna fix all the issues with the mod manager or no? don't add more until you do. in case you forgot: www.youtube.com/watch?v=qb2r...

I've been working on a huge collection of retro textures for Quake over the last 6 years. I think there's enough that indie devs could make whole games with them. however, many are not feature complete. but I'm exhausted. I think it's time I stop putting it off and publish these to itchio

Harmony Compatible being shipped with it's own set of carousel icons was pretty epic. Huge props to Thomas van der Velden (t.v.) for keeping the icons in the WAD file, from the older Unity Add-On version. www.doomworld.com/forum/post/2...

Since I've recently made a good handful of weapon carousel icons for Woof, I've started to make it more of A Thing over on the Doomworld forums, come check them out. www.doomworld.com/vb/thread/15...
