DoomRL, short for Doom the Roguelike, is a roguelike inspired by the popular game Doom.
Much like the original Doom game it is based on, players take control of a character tearing
down various monsters in a hellish atmosphere. What makes DoomRL so special is how well it
adapts tactical turn-based gameplay with the brutally harsh and fast pace of doom.
Similarly to tactical RPGs, players spend their turn retaking positions to enact in menu-based combat.
DoomRL however mixes this up by making every action consume a turn, from taking single steps, to shooting
each bullet, to reloading your gun, and pulling out weapons from the user’s inventory. Players are challenged
to predict and dodge enemy fire, pickling their moves carefully as one mistake can be catastrophic. The fast
pace is maintained as all actions are mapped to a dedicated keybind, with minimal use of on-screen menus.
