CatacombGL 0.5.7 is released!

The first version of the new year is unfortunately a much needed hot-fix. In the previous version I accidently introduced a crash when taking certain exit portals. The crash report from Github user DEA1HYT is much appreciated.

Game screenshot of level 14 of Catacomb 3-D. The area is labelled as "Bat-filled Caves". A blue exit portal and two health potions are visible. A bat approaches the player.

That episode is indeed very, very good.
My pick would be the pigeon trial in episode four.

Wow, I absolutely loved watching both Star Trek Voyager AND Blackadder when I was a teenager. Good memories!

Programming is fun, but I can also enjoy some #doom mapping. Now available on idgames is the community megawad "Embryo", where the maps get smaller as you go!

Pictured maps are by me, @signaturereverie.bsky.social, @whybmonotacrab.bsky.social and ViolentBeetle.

Incredible how quickly such a major open source project can fork and just resume business as usual. I hope UZDoom has a bright future ahead.

Attention Mac users: it is now possible to compile and run CatacombGL on MacOS!

To be honest, I don't have any Apple hardware myself. However, Github user LifeKILLED managed to get it working. He was kind enough to submit his work via a pull request and share a screenshot.

Screenshot of the MacOS environment. In the background is the CatacombGL source code opened in an IDE. In the foreground is the CatacombGL application running in a window, showing a zombie in the first level of Catacomb Abyss.
