Kevin Cloud was hired in 1992 by id Software to work as an assistant artist to the then lead artist, Adrian Carmack. By the time of his departure in late 2023, Kevin was in a senior design and project management position. Along with the other co-owners of id, he sold his ownership stake in the company to ZeniMax Media in 2009, but remained at the company.
Notes[edit]
- Kevin's hands are those which appear in the weapon graphics holding the guns in Doom and Doom II.
- Along with Donna Jackson, Kevin was one of the last two employees at id Software who date back to the Doom era, until his retirement in December 2023.[1]
- Kevin produced additional art for the Doom Classic Unity port project, adding an official pistol pickup-style sprite for use on the game's weapon wheel.
- Kevin acted as a senior producer on the remastering projects for Doom 64, Quake, and Quake II, by Nightdive Studios.
