Doom FTW

Clean code, extendable, cross-platform, unified lighting, decent tools, easy to mod, Blender <> idTech 4 art workflow. Good ol' engine with a lot of potential.

Great engine that brought a game that scared the s*** out of me as a little kid.

Great engine nice tools and games just wish making maps was easier.

Great modern graphics, and a very "simple" gaming engine (u know what i mean when i say simple)

Doom and Quake ROCK your computer, and if you play with this engine, then U ROCK BOSS!!!...

This is an excellent engine, with modern graphics. And has a few great games like: Doom 3, Quake 4, Enemy Territory Quake Wars and Wolfenstein. And finally this engine was made by the best video game company in the world, Id Software.

Still one of the greatest game engines available. Very accessible. Easy to understand code. Extremely versatile. Definitely id Software's best engine to date. It was a game changer. And still worth learning today.
