If you ever want to get into playing Doom mods and don't know where to begin, my advice is almost always the same, minus one letter changing in the engine's name.

A: Download the latest UZDoom version.

B: Check out the past few years of Cacowards.

Really happy to see Below The Gaudy Goblin - the first real addon for Hedon - getting a gold award. A fantastic addition to a deeply underrated game.

Also I knew that Blues Brothers 2025 would be a winner. Such a good, smart twist on classic Doom.

And Faithless for Heretic is finally nearly done.

I have created a transparent status bar replacement for UZDoom. Even the automap is transparent! It works with Doom, Freedoom, Chex Quest, and Adventures of Square.
If you are playing a supported Doom mapset, different status bar gfx will automatically load, like for BTSX.

If you aren't seeing skeets from some of your fave people, they might have been labeled "Rude" by bsky mods. Idk what they are thinking, I don't need a mommy to tell me who to be buddies with. Anyway, go into Settings > moderation > bluesky moderation (advanced) and turn Rude off.

It's recently come to my attention that someone made a fake UZDoom website. DO NOT CLICK IT!

The only official website for UZDoom is ZDoom dot org and the ONLY official place to get future UZDoom downloads would be the official UZDoom Github page!

Stay safe out there y'all

[Boosts appreciated]

"ABYSS OF TIME", my sophomore album, is 2 YEARS OLD today.

Time flies like a banana, or something.
