i am working on a software-rendered 3D game for MS-DOS! again! this time i am using the Plush software renderer (from Nullsoft Inc.) as a base and using Quake 3 BSP files to store level geometry.

seems like i'll be targeting Pentium 133 territory, maybe higher, depends on how well i can optimize...

i wrote about the Utah Teapot and its lesser known friends

made a new blog post on my website talking a little bit about integrating Jolt Physics into the FTE Quake engine!

erysdren.me/blog/2025-06...

did you know? the FTEQW Quake engine has a 20 year old X11 server plugin allowing it to host X applications and render the results to a shader. the more you know! 🌈

Quake + Peggle = Queggle

TrenchBroom has been officially added to the @haikuos.bsky.social ports repository! now you can make Quake levels on Haiku! <3

featuring application icon made by the wonderful DiSCATTe !! thank u!!

spent the last few days implementing a cinematic camera path node editor in the FTEQW (Quake) engine! hopefully this will turn out easier to use than setting up the nodes manually in TrenchBroom :P #gamedev #quake #fteqw

went and added the VGA text-mode end screens to my SDL3 Quake sourceport.

it's optional, but a fun detail that most people playing Quake these days forget.
