Doomsday

Doomsday (also called the Doomsday Engine) is a source port, presently developed by project founder Jaakko Keränen (skyjake). Former developers include Jamie Jones (Yagisan) and Daniel Swanson (DaniJ). The team is collectively known as deng team. It supports multiple id Tech 1 games through a plugin/core architecture. Alongside the core engine, three official game plugins are developed by deng team, for playing Doom, Heretic, and Hexen. The Doom plugin also supports Chex Quest and Hacx as independent IWADs.

On November 1, 1999, Skyjake released the first version of his Hexen source port: jHexen 0.97.1. On December 18, 1999, Skyjake publicly announced both Doomsday Engine and intention to create ports for Doom and Heretic.
