==Heretic levels==
*Heretic's E6M3 is based directly on [[American McGee]]'s [[Doom II]] deathmatch level [[IDMAP01]].
*Heretic, like Doom, has a demo rotation; however, the demos were recorded with version 1.0 of the executable, and were never updated to account for engine changes. Therefore, two of them go out of sync in version 1.2 as well as Shadow of the Serpent Riders. The first demo makes it to the [[crossbow]] and begins shooting at a torch before being slashed to death by Sabreclaws. The third demo goes out of sync almost immediately, the player starts running into walls, shooting at the ceiling and never leaves the starting room.
*A port of Heretic to the {{wp[[Sega Saturn (console)|Sega Saturn}} ]] was slated to be released by GT Interactive, but was canceled before release.{{cite web|title=Sega Saturn Magazine Issue 35|url=https://archive.org/details/mean-machines-sega-magazine-35/page/n11/mode/2up|publication=Sega Saturn Magazine|publishdate=September 1995|accessdate=10 May 2021}} [[Hexen (Sega Saturn)|Hexen ]] did end up being released]] for that console, however.
*[[John Romero]] joked in a tweet that [[Rise of the Triad]] was in the same canon as Heretic and its sequels.{{cite web|author=[[John Romero|Romero, John]]|title=Heretic and Hexen DID take place centuries before ROTT...when the Order of the Triad began... |url=https://twitter.com/romero/status/1087141337177223168?s=20|publication=Twitter|publishdate=21 January 2019|accessdate=9 July 2021}}
