RISC OS
From DoomWiki.org
RISC OS is a operating system created for the ARM-based home computers by Acorn Computers such as the Acorn Archimedes and Risc PC, and later third-party compatibles such as the Iyonix PC and A9home. Premiering in 1987, these were among the earliest 32-bit computing platforms.
Programmer Eddie Edwards created ports of Wolfenstein 3D[1] and Doom,[2] the latter published by R-Comp Interactive as the Depths of Doom Trilogy in 1998.[3] They also published Charles Ferguson (Gerph)'s ports[4][5] Doom+ and also Heretic and Hexen (as Towers of Darkness: Heretic, Hexen and Beyond) in 1999,[6][7] with a later release of Final Doom in 2016,[8] a new edition of Doom in 2016 (which packed in the port of Wolfenstein 3D),[9] and updated versions of Hexen[10] and one of Heretic that also includes Blasphemer in 2024.[11] Other ports by R-Comp include Quake (with Malice and Q!ZONE as Quake Resurrection), Abuse, Syndicate, Heroes of Might and Magic 2, The Chaos Engine, Descent, and Descent II.
