Linux SVGALIB Doom

id didn't skip too many platforms with DOOM. This is one of their official Linux ports. It is shareware, you'll need a full version of DOOM (from another platform) to use it.

Doom was the first proprietary and commercial game for Linux. However, as it required being downloaded after purchasing another version, it is not a store-shelf product nor is it of any commercial value whatsoever. For those that bought Doom to play it on Linux, this game generated additional sales for DOS (or whatever version was purchased). It was succeeded by [gameid=#80673]Inner Worlds[/game] which was packaged with the DOS version of that game. Civilization: Call to Power published by Loki Entertainmentwould eventually become the first Linux game on store shelves that was not packaged in a product for another operating system.
