- AnotherGoodName 3y agoAlso a quick background and the GBA port is a port of the jaguar port which is a port of the SNES port. So somewhere in that heritage is the SNES version of doom. A 16bit version.
- bluedino 3y agoCorrect. It's actually not even Doom: The game does not use the Doom engine, but features a custom engine, known as the Reality engine, programmed by Randy Linden.
- wk_end 3y agoThe Jaguar port is not a port of the SNES port. It was built in-house at Id and was developed by Carmack himself. See Doom Wiki: https://doom.fandom.com/wiki/Atari_Jaguar https://doom.fandom.com/wiki/Atari_Jaguar The SNES port runs on a bespoke engine written by Randy Linden. Whereas the Jaguar Doom is the basis for many console ports, SNES Doom is something of an (incredibly impressive!) dead-end on the Doom family tree.
