Featured article
Doom (or DOOM as a brand) is the game that started it all. It was first released on December 10, 1993, when a shareware copy was uploaded to an FTP server at the University of Wisconsin.
The development of Doom began in 1992, with John Carmack writing the new game engine while the rest of id Software was finishing Spear of Destiny (the sequel to Wolfenstein 3D). When the full design phase began in late 1992, the main thematic influences were the movies Aliens and Evil Dead II, and the Dungeons & Dragons campaign the developers had been playing, where the forces of hell invaded the material world...

Trivia
Did you know that Doom v0.2 includes the ability to cycle through various textures, where two of them contain Easter eggs - "Jules Sucks", referring to Adrian Carmack, and "Tom is King", referring to Tom Hall?
