I started a Doom and Doom II soundtrack album cover art project in *checks file system metadata* November of 2011. (A link to Brandon Blume's Roland SC-55 recodings is below.) Last night, I blew the dust off this project and this morning exported the final versions onto my hard drive. Goals: original textures, original sprite logos, the iconic Doom font, and subtle use of drop shadow.

'A new DOOM re-release from Limited Run Games comes in a box that can run DOOM. Available for $666 on April 18th, the box set is limited to 666 units, so you'll need to wake up early if you're willing to blow the big bucks on what is essentially a collectable meme.'

Every once in a while I get super fascinated by Emacs and Org-mode.

Some updates and releases on #GOG recently for games you might have picked up or already have:

Nikoderiko - The Magical World

#Tropico6
Terraforming Mars
#Stellaris
Drova - Forsaken Kin
#DOOM + DOOM II
#Factorio

...and so, so, so many more. These are just the ones which I figured might make some who are in #PCGaming and #gaming take note for an update!

Oha! Mit dem letzten Patch wurde #Doom 1+2 auf Steam und GOG um Dosbox-Staging erweitert. Bei GOG kamen die vollständigen DOS-Versionen überhaupt erst dazu. Vorher waren nur die WADs dabei, die bspw. in GZdoom abgespielt werden konnten.

NEW COMMUNITY PROJECT! In March we revisited DOOM, the game with which we started the club all the way back in 2017.

During this month the club took it upon themselves to put together a complete custom episode WAD for vanilla Doom 1.

Nine people contributed work on putting together 8 maps, 1 secret map and a custom MIDI intermission track.

We're very proud of our awesome community and we hope you'll check out what we put together for you all!
