MiniDOOM 2: A Parody Retro Platformer

March 27, 2018 By ausretrogamer

Just in case you missed the memo with this most important proposition – what if DOOM was a platformer instead of a first person shooter?

The answer is miniDOOM 2, a fan game that pays homage to the DOOM franchise by reimagining it as a 2D retro platformer. It takes the beloved cast of classic DOOM enemies and weapons and blends them with old school 80s and 90s games like Contra and Metal Slug, resulting in a fast paced pixelated carnage-fest with a killer heavy metal soundtrack.

More than a sequel, miniDOOM 2 is actually a remake of miniDoom 1 on steroids: Bigger, louder and more badass. Download it now – it is free!
