You know, even though I’ve played ID’s classic FPS game “Doom” since 1993. I still manage to find new, creative and awesome “Doom” mods and spin-offs to this very day (“Brutal Doom“, “Project Brutality” and “MiniDoom” are three of my favorite fan-made “Doom” projects though).

I was about 11 years old when I played the original doom for the very first time back in 1993.

Well, today I found a brand-new “Doom” mod which I have never EVER heard of before, and it’s the “Linear Doom” mod by DeXiaZ:

“Linear Doom is a jokewad which makes all classic Doom 1 levels straightened into one line” – DeXiaZ

“Linear Doom” might just be the most hardcore version of “Doom” yet. Why? because you got nowhere to hide, nor anywhere to run but forward and backward (strafing will do you no good here).

Furthermore, when I found out about the existence of “Linear Doom”, I also soon noticed that v1.1 of the mod launched just recently (v1.1 were released on the 2nd of April).

So without any hesitation whatsoever, I downloaded v1.1 of “Linear Doom” and gave it a try. Well, I’m glad that I made that decision, because “Linear Doom” sure offers its players very different and unique “Doom” experience.

“Linear Doom” really forces you to think and act in a much different way that you’re used to while playing “Doom”. For example, now you really have to watch out so that you don’t take any medic kits when you don’t need them.

You don’t have to take my word for it though, because you can simply watch DeXiaZ’s gameplay trailer for “Linear Doom” further down the page.

And with that said, what’s your take on e “Linear Doom”? Let us know your thoughts in the comment section down below!
