Welcome to VKDoom!
VKDoom is a source port based on the DOOM engine with a focus on Vulkan and modern computers.
Please see license files for individual contributor licenses.
Addendum by Marisa: This fork was supposed to be a continuation of the original VKDoom by dpJudas et al, as it was officially abandoned. New features are no longer on the table, I feel I've done enough of that already between 2018 and 2023. At the very least some bugs were fixed for the sake of stability, so now this is currently the only port that can play Codename: DEMOLITIONIST.
Releases
No automated builds or releases are offered, you have to do it yourself.
