About Zandronum

Zandronum is a multiplayer oriented port, based off Skulltag, for Doom and Doom II

by id Software. Zandronum brings classic Doom into the 21st century, maintaining

the essence of what has made Doom great for so many years and, at the same time,

adding new features to modernize it, creating a fresh, fun new experience.

Here's why you should kill your time with Zandronum, versus vanilla Doom:

Client/server architecture: play and switch between games with ease

Supports up to 64 players

Wide array of gameplay modes

Competitive: Team DM, Duel, CTF, Possession, LMS, Terminator, Skulltag

Cooperative: Survival, Invasion (or both!)

Modifiers, like Instagib and Buckshot, can be used to spice up any game

Modern and beautiful

Support for large number of ZDoom and GZDoom mods

Choose between GZDoom's OpenGL renderer, or Doom's Software renderer

Useful features like a console, Quake-style key bindings, freelooking, and jumping

Support for many Doom engine based games including Heretic, Hexen, and Strife

Supports modern versions of Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux

In some scenarios, commercial data files are required to run the supported games.

In other cases, it's possibly to automatically use Freedoom as a drop-in replacement.

This package comes bundled with Doomseeker for easy installation and server browsing.
