Doomcraft

Open a gate to hell in your Minecraft world. Doom II's demons pour through it in endless, growing rounds, run by a real Doom engine playing alongside Minecraft. Fight them with Doom's guns, earn points, and spend them on weapons and upgrades. Play alone or with up to three friends.

Minecraft draws everything. Doom decides what every monster does, when it attacks and how hard it hits. The monsters, weapons sounds and status bar are read from your own copy of DOOM II while you play; none of it ships with the mod.

The first minute

1. Craft a Skull Key: Bone, Gold Ingot and Redstone Dust in one column (it shows in your recipe book once you pick up a bone).
2. Right-click it. The sky turns, the Gate opens, and you are handed a pistol.
3. Round 1 begins. Left click shoots, right click is each gun's alt fire, R reloads.
4. Press B to spend points at the Upgrade Station.
5. Press H to banish hell. Everything goes back to how it was.

What's in it

• Endless rounds that grow every round, with Swarm rounds, Flight rounds, and the Cyberdemon and Spider Mastermind as bosses.
• Seven guns as real 3D models, each with an alt fire: aim the pistol, choke the shotgun, empty both barrels of the super shotgun, spin up the chaingun, salvo the rocket launcher, vent the plasma rifle.
• An Upgrade Station with ammo, armor, one attachment per gun (laser sight, bayonet, grapple and more) and fourteen stackable enchantments.
• Doom's own status bar, with health and armor running to 200% and your Minecraft armor counting as Doom armor.
• Monsters that use the world: they find their way round your walls, fliers come over them, zombie gunmen climb your ladders, and the big ones smash through if you allow it (/doombreak on): a Demon bites through a stone wall in a few seconds, a Hell Knight throws fireballs into it, and everything is put back when the Gate closes.
• Infighting: Minecraft's own mobs and Doom's demons fight each other.
• Torches matter: demons never appear where it is lit, so you can build a base. Keep them waiting too long and they come back meaner.
• The guns work anywhere, Gate open or closed.
• Classic or modern look: press V to switch the gun in your hands between the 3D models and Doom's own first-person sprites, sights and all.

Playing together

Up to four players share one hell. The host opens their world to LAN and sends friends the address that appears in chat; friends join with Direct Connection. Everyone needs the mod and their own DOOM + DOOM II, and each player opens the Gate themselves. Rounds grow with the number of players. The host must be on Windows.

Needs

• Minecraft: Java Edition (your own account)
• DOOM II in any form: DOOM + DOOM II (either the classic or the 2024 files), the older DOOM II or BFG Edition releases, or Final Doom
