Excellent news! I'll upvote as soon as I find my login details. I'm copying the thread to General Gaming and Fan Missions.

Great job! Upvoted here.
Is it still based on the Doom 3 source code? I've not followed the development for AGES now, and it being referred to as "Standalone" makes me suspect it's its own thing now.
I only ask because Zenimax / Bethesda can be right dicks when it comes to things they think they own the IP for.

The source code was open sourced, well GPL'd, so it's fine to release. All the IP (textures, models, etc) was taken out. Yes, completely standalone. Download and play. I've even played it right off a thumb drive, eg, on a friend's computer.
For what it's worth, the improvements we've made to the game engine are a huge leap forward from vanilla Doom3. I'd even say it'd be good for some other indie devs to use our version of it, eg, if they like unified lighting, which is kind of its specialty.

Thumbs uped.
The included genres are a bit strange though. No "stealth" (I'm assuming that's a category), but it's listed under "shooter" and "puzzle?" Also, "Free to Play" makes it sound like it has micro-transactions.
Edit: Just looked, I guess there isn't a stealth category.

Awesome guys! Never would have thunk it when I mooted the idea all those years ago (you know, then let other people realise it so fantastically!)
Loving the latest version btw.
