Did you know: The chainsaw in DOOM was modelled off of Tom Hall’s Eager Beaver chainsaw. It leaked oil, and so was kept in a bowl in the id offices. Tom still has it!💛

A high res scan of a white 3.5 inch floppy disk of id software's "Hovertank One". The lable reads: "Boot your MS DOS system disk; insert GAMERS EDGE: type HOVER; press ENTER GAMERS EDGE™ Softdisk Game Collections for IMB® PC and 100% compatibiles HOVERTANK ONE *Illustration of a Hovertank, from the right hand side* © 1991 softdisk Publishing P.O box 30008 - Shreveport - LA 71130-0008 (318) 221-8718 1-800-831-2694 IBM is a registered trademark of International Buisness Machines 640k & EGA required."

The title screen of "Hovertank" showing an EGA art peice of a massive grassy area, with what appears to be a hill in the background. Two burning enemy tanks are seen in the distance, with thick smoke billowing out of them. And a close up of the player tank, from a front/side profile. The game title "Hovertank" is stylised in big, bold letters, with Khaki patern and Rivets across the top, middle and bottom of the letters.

The very first frame of the first of twenty levels of Hovertank, showing the Red Demon enemy, heading towards the player. A massive white crosshair in the centre of the screen. The environment has a pitch black ceiling, a dark grey floor, and light blue, dark blue and magenta walls. The bottom third of the screen being the Heads Up Display for the game, with a tally for people saved/killed, the level number, a timer, score counter, health display, and a minimap/radar.

35 Years ago, today:
Monday, April 1st, 1991, John Carmack began development on id software's first 3D game engine, using Raycasting technology.

Their first project with this engine would be 'Hovertank` [`One`/`3D`], their first FPS game.

The beginning of the modern FPS revolution.

Linux smashes past 5% on the Steam Survey for the first time After rubbing away the sleep from my eyes in disbelief, Valve have updated the Steam Hardware & Software Survey for March 2026 showing explosive Linux growth.

The original Doom is my favorite, but I don't have a physical copy of that game. Nevertheless, Doom 3 is still an amazing game and I like the box art.

text: in contrast to carmack's eternal pessimism regarding his past creations, project specialist john romero is the biggest fan of id's games that you could ever hope to meet. his enthusiasm is infectious as he plays the latest beta making his own sound effects with his mouth to compensate for the game. sound effects that haven't been added in yet. it is this mix of diehard programmer who plays games and diehard gamer who programs that ultimately makes id's games as good as they are.
