UMBCast 017 - DOOM

One week late, but here's episode 17 where I cover the iconic first person shooter series from id software, DOOM. There's so much to say here that I don't spend much in the way of time on news, I only mention that Chris Roberts' Star Citizen project has concluded its funding campaign successfully. They are still collecting for stretch goals so check it out! I then read a quick email and jump right into things with the main topic, id software's DOOM series. I cover the story (such as it is), gameplay, get reasonably deep into the design of the game engine and look at the very interesting development story. Play DOOM for free online: http://www.kongregate.com/games/mike_id/doom-1 Buy Doom 3: BFG Edition on Steam: http://store.steampowered.com/app/208200/ Next week, we cover a very interesting game series: Alone in the Dark. Hope to see you then!
