Halodoom by Jesze
Table of Contents
#
Halodoom is a fangame that pays tribute to the Halo universe and seeks to push the Doom Engine to its limits! #
While utilizing the source port Zandronum, Halodoom offers a totally unique and standalone modern Halo experience within the classic engine that originally spawned the first person shooter genre! #
#
Halodoom was a solo project I first started when I was 15 years old and had no idea how to go about making it happen. Initially brought about by a desire to play Halo on an iPod Mini after learning it could run Doom, the project soon snowballed into something that I would carry with me for half of my life, and would set me on a path of game development that I am still on today. It has seen several iterations in the past, and gone by many names, a comfort project I could pick away at whenever I felt the urge. Now, 15 years later, it’s time to finally do justice to the first game I ever made. It’s time to finish this fight! #

Once you’ve found and unlocked Skull modifiers hidden within the various maps, you can enable them in this mode to yield some pretty absurd results!

Coupled with 12 unique weapon start templates, you’ll never run out of variations to try out! You can also play either Free for All or as a Team!

Engage in combat with these highly customized bots. If you’ve ever played Doom with bots you’ll know they can be a bit… simplistic. These bots have custom behavior which allows them to better utilize the maps and game types.
