1100

In honor of the 20th anniversary of Doom! Legendary Doom is now on your Android device! Relive the Doom experience and fight your way through hordes of demons from Hell - just as you did in the good old days!

Doom by Eltechs is a port of classic Doom game. It is based on vanilla Ubuntu Chocolate Doom (http://www.chocolate-doom.org/) port running under Eltechs ExaGear emulation engine.

Are you getting nostalgic over good old first person shooters that you played in your youth? We are bringing Doom by Eltechs to your smart phones and tablets. Relive the role of space marine who is sent to Mars on what is considered by space marines to be the dullest assignment imaginable. However, this all changes when a teleportation experiment goes horribly wrong; Deimos disappears, evil is released and death and destruction follow. Now it is up to space marine to fight for his own life and prevent evil from attacking the Earth.

        • Holy shit i actually know what these are for!
          Doom was one of the first games i ever played, so its hard to forget one of the first code sequences you memorised

    Not free, read the description

    Doom by Eltechs contains the shareware version of the game only.

    • What does being shareware mean for this app? Is it timed?

      • +5

        Just has first episode I imagine, like the old shareware Doom.

      • +2

        No, not time. Shareware is referring to having only the shareware version of DOOM that ID released way back in the day. You only get the first episode of the game to play

        However in the case of their Heretic port…

        Legendary Heretic is now available on your Android device! Play the Heretic just as you did in good old days!
        * THIS APPLICATION CONTAINS SHAREWARE VERSION OF GAME ONLY
        * IT IS FREE TO PLAY FOR ONE HOUR AFTER INSTALLATION. AFTER THAT PERIOD ONE TIME FEE WILL BE APPLIED

      Shareware is free…. First nine levels were always shareware.

      id released Doom in 1993, which included three chapters. The first chapter (9 of the 27 levels) were available for free and id encouraged distribution between friends. The 2nd and 3rd chapters were available via mail order.

        The Golden Age of video games.

        Ah ok I'm with you now. I got into gaming a few years after Doom so didn't know how it all worked. Videogames by mail-order - equally quaint and awesome.

      • +1

        Yeah Shareware is free but it's not really a deal since it's a demo of the full game. Free DOOM to me would mean the whole game is free not just the first chapter. Still a great game though and port seems decent to me :)

  • Also Heretic and Duke 3D and others around, also free.

  • +1

    this reminds me, I gotta try out Doom remake on Doom 3 engine

  • FREEDOOM! Woohoo!

  • Thanks!

    Can anyone really play games like this on a touch screen? On-screen controls, especially d-pads and camera control, seem impossible to me.

    • bluetooth joystick is an option…

    • +1

      Quite easily once you get used to it (provided it's implemented properly obviously). The "standard" control scheme for FPS is analogue d-pad for movement on left side of screen, and aiming on the right side. If you want an example of this being well implemented either of the Dead Trigger games do it well and are free (though they more or less require IAP to play).

      Of course some developers are idiotic are do things like having strafing controlled by accelerometer (yes you read that right). I checked out a Quake 3 port that did this …

    There's a Russian guy that makes Android "emulators" (I think?) … any, that app uses the original game files for some of these ID games - Doom and Quake engine games. The controls are overlayed on the original game graphics and you can access the console just like on PC. Easily the best versions I've found on Android at any rate.

    I haven't played this particular one but some of the others were more or less unplayable. Russian guy's were good enough for me to finish Return To Castle Wolfenstein. I think from memory he charges a small amount on the Play store with an unconditional refund policy (ie not the 15 minute Play refund) but he also provides the files free on his home forum which you can google for.

    holy shit, 20 years… i remember this like yesterday… :(

      I remember playing this on my 486 DX2 66.
      Ahhh the memories :)

      Thanks!

        You must have been rich. I first tried the alpha on my IBM PS/2 Model 30 286, needless to say it ran like a dog.

        • +1

          Windows 3.11?
          Actually was my older bros "Business" PC but I used it like it was mine ;)

        • +1

          man u must have been rich :P - I had a dx2 66 too but ran everything through dos/xtree gold. I didnt get windows until 586 cyrix :)

        • +7

          Haha .. but did you have a TURBO button ?

      • +4

        Pretty sure the 486 DX2 66 was my first entry point into the world of PC. Prior to that it was Amiga and even further back was my Amstrad CPC 6128. Good times.

        • You seem to have my "Computer" age. I had an A500. Sony MSX before, and Videopac Computer Module before.

  • Unplayable

    • +1

      I wouldn't go as far to say it's unplayable… but the touch screen controls are pretty atrocious.

  • +1

    thanks for this one, was gonna get Duke Nukem from them as well but it got flagged with a plankton1 trojan.

  • Touch controls make this pretty difficult… I remember being too poor to afford a PC back when this came out, so I went to my local MYER, who had it installed on one of their Packard Bell Pcs and played while my parents shopped. The good old days!
