Abstract

A relatively "light" roguelike, written by Kornel Kisielewicz in FreePascal, based on the world of Doom created by iD software. An example of a Gore-themed game.

Description

DoomRL follows the relatively new idea of a Coffeebreak roguelike - it is intended to be simple, fast and furious. Something that you can play from time to time without much need to concentrate.

There are several simplifications:

there is only one "dungeon"
inventory size is limited to 20 slots
there are only three equipment slots
there can be only one item per level quare
the levels are all screen-sized

Features

DoomRL version 0.9.8 introduced something novel into the roguelike genre - full modern sound support (using features like stereo and distance effects) and music - both taken from the original Doom by ID Software. Other features worth noting:

simple interface
balanced traits
balanced and fast-paced gameplay
several special levels
20 levels including a final showdown with the Cyberdemon
a secret ending

Screenshot

The screenshot is quite old and outdated.
