Just as i thought i had found some of the most freakiest flash apps, i found this rather playable re-implementation of doom called Doomed Online.

What is amazing about it is that it uses the original data files – something which i never considered would have been possible with flash. But then again i’ve not quite been keeping up with all of the technical advances in flash over the years, so it is really no surprise.

The demo is available here. For those of you who might have checked out the pre-release versions of Doom, the demo plays very much like them – as in you can’t shoot anything and there is no AI. Hopefully in the future these issues will be resolved and it’ll be that much more interesting to play.
