(1/6) 35 Years ago, today: Monday, April 1st, 1991, John Carmack began development on id software's first 3D game engine, using Raycasting technology. Their first project with this engine would be 'Hovertank` [`One`/`3D`], their first FPS game. The beginning of the modern FPS revolution.

Short video showcasing the progress of my little game.

I know absolutely no one will see this, and that even if they were to they wouldn't care anyway, but I HAVE to talk about this! youtube.com/playlist?lis...

This nice gameplay video of Catacomb Abyss was made last month by @cerrejon.bsky.social. It is powered by CatacombGL and running on a Raspberry Pi 5. www.youtube.com/watch?v=xLkt...

We knew that BioMenace Remastered would touch the hearts of a lot of fans, but the way it has been received by the gamers really makes us proud that we put out something good!

Havoc posted a new development update for his Hovertank 3D source port. He's currently working on a Hovertank Mod Manager, which looks like a user friendly tool for loading custom maps, graphics and sounds. www.youtube.com/watch?v=bJVE...

Catacomb 3D is fun to this day. It deserve more recognition than it gets, for sure.

This isn't Catacomb 3D, this is The Catacomb Abyss, a game Softdisk developed *after* all the id people left it, @kyleor.land

The 1st entry in this weeks celebration of @idsoftware.bsky.social is the predecessor to Doom. No, not Wolfenstein 3D but Catacomb 3-D. It was the 3rd Catacomb game but the first to use 3D graphics and paved the way for the future of gaming. Catacomb 3-D (1991) [DOS]

John Romero made a really cool video going over the development of Catacomb 3-D. Hope he's able to make more of these. Love this kind of stuff. youtu.be/ZcUqwMf01pI?...

@catacombgl.bsky.social holy shit look at this www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZcUq...

BioMenace Remastered is now officially Steam Deck verified ✅! 🎉 And it's still 20% off until Christmas - grab it while it's hot! 🔥 store.steampowered.com/app/3459100/...

Oh wow, the Biomenace remaster is a real nostalgia trip. I always remember the game having a weird tone and yep, right off the bat there's bleeding corpses in the streets, skeletons, etc. And the enemies are smiling funny little guys with googly eyes. The level 2 theme is Pop Goes The Weasel.

Sorry folks but Duke Nukem is old news. The shareware platforming himbo that Gen Z can't get enough of is Snake Logan from BioMenace (BioMenace Remastered is really good)

🩸 A new playable class has arrived in Wizordum. The Bloodmage is OUT NOW on PC. No health pickups. No potions. If you want to live, you fight for it. 🧙‍♂️🔥
