DOOM Retro v2.0.4 - The latest Doom source release packed with updates!


We've just been informed through our twitter feed that ' Doom Retro ' , which is a minimalistic designed DOOM source port by Brad Harding, has now reached version 2.0.4. Unlike that very gory Brutal Doom, with it's destroyable bodies and disgusting physics, Doom Retro tries to stay as close as possible to the original game but improving it with a number of features and updates.
