Game of the Day: Heretic
id Software has long been popular with the Linux crowd for releasing their game engines as open source and their generous shareware packages which offer quite a bit of game play for free before you have to pay anything. But much of the focus has been on their more famous milestone games, like Doom and Quake. The two that seemed to get overlooked were Heretic and Hexen.
Heretic was a game which was based on the Doom engine and produced in joint cooperation by id and Raven Software. It has many improvements on the Doom games, including an inventory system, the ability to look up and down, a flying power-up, and lots of eye and ear candy effects. In my opinion, it's under appreciated.
