A version of Doom forever mired in mediocrity.

Be sure to watch Rebecca's recollections on what she went through making this port of Doom for the 3DO:

Episode Notes:

1. Captured on real 3DO hardware via 240p.

2. The instruction manual has numerous errors. It really shows how ill-prepared Art Data was to be a publisher.

3. Be sure to try Wolfenstein 3D, Escape From Monster Manor, and Killing Time on the 3DO. Doom was not indicative of this platform's potential.

4. Rebecca Heineman did many other games in her career. She's a legend that helped found Interplay and many of its initial hits.

5. Art Data Interactive didn't last long after this. They went inactive in 1997 and then closed completely in 1999.
