Doom is a first person shooter game with content that is probably not suitable for young children, but is great fun for older ones.

Freedoom is a free software clone of Doom, based on improvements made to Doom's 3d engine with new maps and monsters.

How to install Doom bundle

Click Doom-2.xo to download Doom. Then install as usual.

This is tested working in shipping builds, not tested with rainbow security enabled, yet.

Help

I installed this by downloading the .xo file and then I tried changing the graphics mode to OpenGL and now it won't start. I tried removing it and re-installing it, but it still won't start. I think my (poor choice of) settings were not reset when I did that.

Game settings (all activity settings actually) are found in your .sugar/ directory. Just remove the .sugar/default/org.laptop.doom directory to clear saved settings after you remove the activity, and then re-install.

Hint, don't try the OpenGL video mode.
