The game was "one grade up" compared to Doom or Heretic, offering very interesting levels full of secrets to explore, innovative ideas and hectic gameplay. <p>EDuke32 is the most actively developed Duke Nukem 3D source port so far. Along with classic renderer, it uses OpenGL renderer which is heavily used to provide you with many features, like 3D models instead of original sprites, shadows, lights, fog... The port contains many original bug fixes, offers modularity, WSAD + mouse control, loading High Resolution Pack (textures, ogg music), Quake-style console and a user-friendly map editor. <p>"EDuke32 screams bad ass so loud, you'll think Iron Maiden frontman Bruce Dickinson got uppercut in the balls by Freddy Krueger." | EDuke32 20100311 | new | EDuke32 |
