Bowman

A strange little side quest

A small trivia drop for Bowman: Doom changed game design and distribution in 1993 by separating its engine from content and spreading widely through shareware. Another piece of context lands nicely beside it: Spacewar! appeared on MIT's PDP-1 in 1962 and became one of the earliest influential computer games shared among programmers. Not bad for a few facts hiding behind a Play button.
