A fully playable browser version of Wolf3D! Hiding behind an age gate and a "North American" versus "International" question. Thanks id!

Go give it a try.

EDIT: Also, there's a director's commentary with John Carmack on Youtube. And I'm Nick Breckon.

EDIT2: Also, free iOS version.

EDIT3: ALSO! Steam sale. Wolf Pack (includes Wolf 3D, Spear and Return for $3.75) and id super pack.

I wanted a web based version not a few days ago, awesome.

[Krev]

Awesome, thanks for bringing this to my attention.

[B_Rik_Schitthaus]

I had pop in.

Love this sort of thing, id can still be cool sometimes.

Hey guys! Fuck off!

[tc farks]

Can't resist playing this a little bit. Nostalgia overload.

Nice when devs/pubs do it themselves.

Good morning to kill some Nazis

Get Psyched!

[B_Rik_Schitthaus]

Fuck those red orb throwing cloak wearing turdmen.

*pumps fist*

[Fuzzy]

Really amazing I still remember where the secrets are in the first level.

[AgentOtaku]

wtf, video not available in your country

>=(

[Madrugador]

Awesome, thanks for the heads up!

[Semblance]

<3 id.

[Izick]

Won't load for me on Firefox or Chrome. :( (on Ubuntu/Linux)

Is it Flash, or HTML 5, or what?

[BassForever]

*replays bit of episode 2*

Oh god I forgot how much harder this was then episode 1

[mclem]

"North American English" Hey guys! Fuck off!

I think that's what they speak in Canada.

[Gloam]

Many happy memories of Wolf3d, listening tot he director's commentary it's funny to hear Carmack chuckle about the various changes for the Nintendo version of the game. Cool insight into stuff you'd never really consider as a kid.

[Eteric Rice]

Jesus these levels are big! lol

[hardcastlemccormick]

Won't load for me on Firefox or Chrome. :( (on Ubuntu/Linux) Is it Flash, or HTML 5, or what?

It's not Flash. I'm guessing HTML5 or some weird Javascript wrapper.

[Kyouji]

Still remember the secrets on the first level. Love that secret exit.

[Utako]

Hah, I'm really surprised it uses <div>s instead of Canvas - seems like it would be more easily portable from the original code with the latter. Weird!

No obvious reason why it shouldn't work for you. JavaScript disabled?

[Rösti]

No secrets unfortunately, but I had some problems both with frame rate and opening doors (textures got all weird, I played in Firefox 11.0).

By the way, does anyone know if you can enable the debug mode in this version? From 3D Realms' website:

The debug mode is activated with a different command line parameter depending on what version of the game you have. v1.0 -> -next (Once in the game, press [ctrl] [tab] [enter] to activate) v1.1+ -> -goobers (Once in the game, press [lshift] [alt] [backspace] to activate) Spear of Destiny -> -debugmode (Once in the game, press [lshift] [alt] [backspace] to activate)

None of these commands enable any debug mode as far as I can see. Not that it's important but it would be nice to just fool around a bit.

I can't remember and i played the hell out of Wolfenstein when i was young, DAMN I'M OLD!!!! So to remedy i just did what i did when i first played Wolf way back when, just look at the wall and strafe and hold down the space bar lol.

[Criminal Upper]

Will play at lunch!

[Clevinger]

aaaiiiiii

[Haunted]

I'll play this even though my government doesn't want me to.

[hardcastlemccormick]

Here's @id_aa_carmack playing Wolfenstein 3D during the filming of his director's commentary

[FrontalMonk]

subbed, will play after I get home from work today. :)

[Kyouji]

aaaiiiiii

Mein Leben!

[hardcastlemccormick]

The iOS version of the game is free today too.

[5amshift]

Played it for a second on Chrome and it ran perfectly.

[Pociask]

Yeah, this. Did the exact same thing. First thought when I was playing - why did I think that was fun then?

[MisterHero]

This is the sort of thing fans love to do. http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/470460 Nice when devs/pubs do it themselves.

I was so excited when this thread showed up, thinking Wolfenstein would work as well as the linked game, but it did not. :(

[Glix]

Ran great in my Chrome! And free on IOS! yay!

I remember having to make the window smaller to get it to run, now it runs in a browser and on phones. I feel so old.

[twinturbo2]

The iOS version of the game is free today too.

Free is good. I'm still trying to get used to playing Marathon with touch controls, though.

[Hoo-doo]

The iOS version of the game is free today too.

Thanks for the update! Nabbed it for my iPad.

[Median]

It's not Flash. I'm guessing HTML5 or some weird Javascript wrapper.

Apparently it's 100% HTML/JS, no HTML5 Canvas or anything like that. Fucking mindblowing.

[aceface]

Anyone else play the original Wolfenstein? I had it on my Apple IIe. Good times, the soldiers would become gum wads when you killed them and the guttural German they would shout was terrifying. Needless to say Wolfenstein 3d blew my mind when it came out.

[Zeouterlimits]

Love it. Formative game of my childhood.

[angelfly]

Running Gentoo and it works fine in Firefox for me (I'm using version 12).

I'm in Germany at the moment.

[Evershade]

I've been playing this all afternoon, which embarrassingly, is also the first time I've ever played it. Feels good to finally rectify that.

[Persona7]

The framerate is weird in firefox and the walls blink in chrome.

I played Castle Wolfenstein in Dosbox recently and it was quite fun. Being chased by an SS trooper across screens and searching boxes frantically for a grenade was a nerve-wracking experience.

[Shadow Hog]

This port could really use some 1-key strafing. <_<

[hardcastlemccormick]

And now the Wolfenstein games are on sale on Steam. $3.75 for Return, Wolf 3D, and Spear.

And 50% off the id super pack if you're feeling that way.

[AgentOtaku]

:-( I'm in Germany at the moment.

ditto

I'm PISSED!!!

[AgentOtaku]

So yeah, could somebody maybe rehost the commentary somewhere or at least recommend a free VPN service or somethin? =(
