It’s December! Time to wreck the halls and enjoy some holiday themed games and mods. DOOM was always a special game that I remember from this time of year when I was a kid. It originally released on the 10th of December all the way back in 1993, when a little Overlord would eventually lay their hands on the original Shareware disc and would continue to play DOOM in one form or another for decades to come!
I did a quick search for Christmas themed wads for DOOM, and the first thing my eyes landed on was 12 Days of Doommas. A Megawad packed with 12 insane levels that pack multiple decked out demons into crammed spaces where you will probably die… a lot. The Imps wear Santa Hats, the Cacodemons and Pain Elementals take on the form of tree ornaments, and you share your Christmas cheer by beating against demons with a candy cane when you run out of ammo. Truly a holiday miracle!… probably.
Some of these visuals could make for some nice retro inspired Christmas cards to send around! 😛 Unfortunately I don’t know many people that would appreciate the demonic visuals.
