Doom (stylized DOOM) is a first person shooter game developed by id Software in 1993 to critical acclaim, perservering over the years due to its technical prowess, large modding scene and near-timeless qualities.
The engine's source code was released by id Software under the GPLv2. It has been used to create several "source ports" that use the game's data, like PrBoom or Chocolate Doom. However, the data remained proprietary, which inspired projects like Freedoom to create libre assets for these FOSS engines to use, to liberate the game entirely.
