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]

Beyond Sunset is a retro-futuristic cyberpunk FPS with light RPG elements and a Vangelis-style soundtrack. Built in GZDoom (because we hate ourselves). Have as much fun playing it as we did making it! Available now on Steam and GOG, DRM-free.

Beyond Sunset represents a collaborative effort from too many people to name in a single post. It began as a solo project in 2015. Today, it's a first person shooter made with love by a bunch of extraordinarily talented people. #indiedev

Every time I see something terrible happening, I learn that it's backed by an organization that's like, "Moms for Whatever"
I think it's high time we started outlawing Moms.

So in case any of my friends were wondering - yes, the "secret project" I was on was Heretic + Hexen.
If you told 11-year-old me that I was gonna work officially on a game I was playing when it just came out, I'd say you were out of your mind.
