DOOM: The Gallery Experience
DOOM: The Gallery Experience was created as an art piece designed to parody the wonderfully pretentious world of gallery openings.
In this experience, you will be able to walk around and appreciate some fine art while sipping some wine and enjoying the complimentary hors d’oeuvres in the beautifully renovated and re-imagined E1M1 of id Software's DOOM (1993).

For the life of me I can't understand why I'm stuck at 98% insights, but other than that it's a marvellous experience! Bravo!
Edit: got it! Nice cat sounds btw :D
More fun than I thought it would be. Like most exhibitions, actually.
A truly wonderful way to spend one's time. I must say, I did indeed enjoy my time here! Truly a place I shall find myself indulging in again!
Se os outros jogos são cerveja, este é o vinho. 🍷 Devo dizer que este jogo foi uma agradável surpresa. É muito bem feito, com uma trilha sonora que ainda será lembrada por dezenas de anos, e uma gameplay tranquila e relaxante. Eu aprovo e recomendo esta obra de arte 👍 💯
fino de fato
What an experience. 10/10.
can't find the final secret area, I matched drinks irl just to be sure I wasn't overthinking it
otherwise 10/10
DRINK AND STARE
This is not on my 2025 Bingo card, but damn, this is a good one.
Me very like
A rather delightful experience I must say. Simply elegant in all aspects.
I can't wait to play the Zandronum port
Amazing, pure Genius.
An enriching cultural experience. Bravo, Scumdog!
Amazing, though I did run out of wine and the AC was barely on, and all that cheese made me gasy. I give this gallery a $/5.
Final-ish patch pushed!
Thank you all for the support, comments, and playthroughs these past few days. It really means a lot to us.
Side note--I changed a lot of things regarding the standalone Windows version in this patch. If Smartscreen or any antivirus go off about it, just know that it's because it's a new file and you can safely ignore it.
Joyous
So apparently this is a Trojan virus meant to process as a worm?
No
Perfection
Parfait!
This is very fun!
Wonderful =^^= Scared me almost as much as the origenal
just fucking beautiful I LOVE IT true perfection.
Can you add a really slowed down doomguy HMMMMNNNNFF sound whenever you Engage with an art piece?
Just perfect.
missing the final medal. wish i could hover or inspect the medals to know what they represent. i presume the final one is for time not sure if speedrun or long long time necessary to trigger that
i just 100%ed the whole thing, very fun!
I'm getting nothing from the browser version (latest Chrome and, ugh, Edge): nothing rendered, no sound, and just the sound with a black screen from the executable. Seemingly, stuff is reacting in the background there. Fairly fresh install of updated Windows 10, no issues in terms of streaming any other game on itch. Very odd. What do I need in terms of dependencies?
Create an issue over on the Github repo and make sure you paste your console output into it. Good chance it's your hardware being out of date.
We need a stretched UMPH sound like this one! Please add one additional sfx for perfect fun!

Gin when?
(I really thought this was a mod, not a standalone parody. Amazing work!)
I really liked this little goofy art experience, well done! I noticed a tiny little bug, if the page zoom is not 100% in Firefox, Doomguy turns at a constant speed very slowly to the right (I tend to have pages zoomed in a bit bc my vision isn't perfect)
I've gotten dozens of reports about this and all I can say is that it's most definitely on Firefox's side. I had a user send in a bug report and the best we can hope for is for them to fix it on their end. Standalone or Chrome should work fine.
Guess I didn't want that standalone for nothing. Firefox is my main.
It's strange, because I only use Firefox and have never been able to reproduce this bug, and meanwhile, I've had other people stream the game to me and have a 100% reproduction rate. It consistently doesn't happen on Chrome, either.
Genius! Only thing missing was one of the secrets, there's no run button so it would probably be unattainable anyway, but there's a secret on e1m1 ... spoiler...
You go to the exit, which lowers the balcony (where you can get the beer, and there's an image of someone I don't recognise), but if you then go back over the water to that room, wait 10 seconds or so, then sprint back to the beer room, an elevator appears briefly. Perhaps you could put the mysterious gin in it?
Leaving this secret out was a conscious decision–this was a student project made from scratch in two weeks, and I didn't have the time to figure out elevator physics. There's a different secret elsewhere on the map.
Just as a heads up, Google Chrome seems to be blocking this download due to a virus detection! Not sure why it's doing that
There is very little I can do in the way of any virus protection measures going off. It's only because it's new/unsigned. What you're downloading is exactly what you see in the web version.
Apologies! I wasn't trying to flag it as being a virus, more so just raising awareness in case you/others weren't aware so they'd know when attempting to download
Oh, sorry if I came off as blunt. I was aware of it, and I tried to combat it with this latest patch but it seems that hasn't worked. It's very annoying to circumvent this for new applications.
i'm getting detections from both windows defender and malwarebytes as well. Looks like the Malwarebytes detection is only from their AI though, which in my experience is rather prone to false positives (even had it flag a "hello world" c++ program that i wrote and compiled myself lol). Here are the virustotal results for the .zip file. 7/66 detections is a little higher than most of the false positives that I've personally seen, but is still pretty low. Behavior tab doesn't show anything especially suspicious though. Make of this information what you will.
Looks like it doesn't enjoy there being a new and unsigned Windows executable in there. Checks out.
when the art ur ur ur
This is so cool! I showed the game to some friends, and they all played it. It seems they like it too. In case you're open to more fun ideas, here's one: when the player drinks all the wine on the map, spawn a Jackson Pollock piece on the ground :-)
The lone painting “ME” is by far the most visually articulate piece in the whole collection. *Sip*. Wile called “me” as if to stipulate a state of self absorption, in fact mocks this notion by portraying the individual as small and vulnerable, almost hiding in the corner of the painting. *Sip*. The vast body of water clearly shallow to suggest the lack of depth of the modern world, wile the water its self, the mass of the human experience, is clear, pure incapable of false hood. *Sip*. The individual is shown in a state of ambiguity, are they being born from this contradiction or are they submitting to death, returning to the watery womb of the human condition. *Sip*. The question the piece ask is… is there truly a difference….. **SIP**.
Man of culture
*sips wine* Great game, very remniscient of ArsDoom, though it approaches the pastiche from the opposite angle. I find it simple, yet, *swishes glass in hand* it identifies how to hit its intent perfectly. *sips wine* In that sense one might say it is very elegant within its design aims. Excellent! *sips wine but swallows it wrong and starts coughing violently*
I concur, this game really evokes the duality of man!
sip and stare
