On April 20, I'll be at the Grandard Booktown Festival. Hope to see you there. granardbooktownfestival.ie
We're looking for a senior lighting artist for a three-month contract. #gamejobs #hiring romerogames.com/careers
For today's #Wolfenstein3d post, John gives us some insight into very early development! 🖤
I’ve finally done it! After days rewriting code, stripping the game to 1% of a single level, reducing graphics down to line art, & tweaking the firmware on the UVK-5 & MobilinkdTNC to pair to a keyboard & pass wireless audio. Doom now runs on my HT! #HamRadio #Doom #HamHarder #HT
This pic was taken years ago at a classic car museum, I wasn't actually employed at a gas station in 1950, of course, but I have worked a lot of different jobs when I was young to make ends meet and let me pursue game dev.

My archives contain all kinds of weird and wonderful contraptions. This 1994 CopyPro 2000 is still in use today. The 3.5" editions of SIGIL II and One Humanity were duped on this this machine.

I've been in the game industry since I was a kid, and I've never seen anything like we're seeing now. For many of us, being a game dev is not just a job, but an identity, community, and culture. I am so sorry to everyone who has lost their jobs.
It does run DOOM.

@romero What about a guy with no experience coding or game development but has great ideas, loves you ❤️, and a life long ( and my kids ) doom fan. Hmu! Lol
Finished up the audiobook of 'Doom Guy' today by @romero and man...it's a fantastic read. Wonderful to hear it from his own voice....if you're any kind of interested in the gaming industry, it's a must read.
A retro version of Commander Keen!
proof of concept of Keen1 on Apple II (recorded on actual hardware). Game engine is lo-res for now, going to try hi-res tiles but it will reduce framerate by 8x at least. Controls are a huge pain, Apple II only can tell you keydown events. @ThatTomHall

Dernier jour pour @Polymanga 🌟 Vous êtes trop cool ! On est là toute la journée, mais plusieurs références en stock critique 😬 (je tiens le dernier exemplaire de l'autobiographie de @romero dans la main !) A très vite 😉
@romero your book was an excellent read. The amount of adversity you faced is expected thinking as an adult, my childhood self always glamorized the paths ventured by my heroes like you and @therealcliffyb assuming it was sunshine and rainbows. How naive. Playing some Sigil next
@romero We know, bro you’re kind of a legend. 😂 I still remember meeting you at GDC Austin, several years ago. You were pretty cool and friendly. My biggest regret these years was actually throwing out the original quake and doom PC games that I had but thanks to your posts I’m going…
@romero We also worked at separate companies when you were at gazillion and I was hosting your entire infrastructure for kung fu panda if you remember that game.
@romero I worked at a full serve gas station my 2nd or 3rd job when I was a teen, honest work
Also found within The Hub is one of our favourite sections, Debug de-brief. Nothing beats getting out into the real world and meeting old friends and making new ones!
My One Humanity floppy disk from @romero has arrived. Hell yeah 🤘🤘
@romero just finished your autobiography! of course I knew the power of Doom and Quake, but had no idea how much you and other titans of id had direct influence on so many other venues like Deus Ex, Prey and Half-Life! great read, happy to have met a living legend back in 2019!
@IndieLauraSDG Are those iridescent labels?! I don't think I've seen that done for a game before. Nice touch @romero I can see we both dream of feelie design in our sleep. 😉
Just had a big catch up with the team about everything @BAFTAGames Awards and am now extremely hype but also #nospoliers
