It's apparently a "very short parody game," but even if you don't care to play it at all, you should watch the trailer in the article. The 2D sprite versions of iconic Doom monsters, objects and textures are pretty well done.
That Looks Fun!

cute monsters. Nice little project.
They need to get a new trailer with someone less awful playing though, painful to watch!
Space Hulk.

Looked a bit meh at first but got a lot more appealling throughout.
The voice acting is spectacularly terrible. I hope there's an option to disable that. Melee combat also looks rubbish. Everything else looks good. I like the psychic powers and the quick spin-up on the assault cannon. The gameplay was a bit unspectacular apart from the 'stealers crawling down the pillar, that was cool. Still hyped tho.

amazing how far we come, i remember the original.... visuals were doom quality. Now i'm watching this super high poly reboot and i'm not even impressed. Art quality isn't high, and voice acting is unintentionally hilarious:
"I am the angel of death" says the terminator, voiced by Gareth from a call center in Slough.

Fucking LOL!
The Trailer
Definitely gave me some preorder regrets... Let's hope it's ok

The melee always looked incomprehensible....and I surprisingly really liked the corridor bit at the end.
Preordering...

The problem with that 2d doom tribute thingy is that on the one hand they have put all that effort into nice crunchy pixel art, but then they contradict it with all that blurry glowy stuff on the missiles and explosions. It's a bit of a schoolboy error :/

Speaking of Space Hulk, I've just stumbled inadvertently on this pretty awesome cosplay:

From those pics, the level-of-detail of the assets is all over the bloody place. Not sure why one would make the floor (the part of the level consistently closest to the player) have the lowest res texture in the game....
Hmmm

This game seems like a joke thats not really hitting its mark. Looks like you don't know what to satirise so have gone for everything and nothing. The 80s effect and voiceover on the trailer help it have a tiny bit of character but then the gameplay and the screenshots look fuckin gash mountain

It just looks like a load of random Unity asset store models mixed up with a bunch of sprites stolen from other games; thrown together with about as much care and awareness as a drunk teenager getting caught wanking into his sister's laundry at 3am after a crap night out at Razzle's.

I heard a whistling in this vid that I could swear was stolen from R2D2.

gash mountain? Is that like good or bad? Sounds pretty good I must say.

I got the creeps just watching this vid. If the whole game is like that, I'm gonna love it!

Going for the subtle, restrained style of survival horror, nice.
I do hope there is a level set in a gigantic dead baby's anal cavity that is simultaneously being raped by a demonic Hitler's cock wrapped in razor wire.
P.s.
