• The primary music sounds a fuckload like:

  • Alice – (1992 song), by Sisters of Mercy (on the album Some Girls Wander by Mistake)

• The Dumb Home Page

  • A 3d game engine for GNU/Linux (and other OSes) distributed under the GNU General Public Licence. DUMB uses a gamefile format that is a superset of that of ID software’s Doom engine, and in fact can play Doom and related games.

PCLinuxOS tests:

• 2005-05 — PrBoom (version not recorded) on PCLinuxOS (version not recorded)

  • No notes were taken.
  • Downloadable as an RPM. Installing timidity++ and timidity-instruments gives music.

Comedy ∞

• Monsters fighting one another was amusing as hell.
• Adding mods provided a huge amount of comedy to me.
• The berzerk fist.

• Especially multiplayer.
