The famous designer John Romero, who worked on the original Doom series, revealed the release of a brand-new level for Doom II on March 2. One Humanity is a map that is the first new level Romero has released for Doom II since the game's 1994 debut. Notably, Romero didn't make this additional level only for fun; instead, he created it in an effort to gather funds for the assistance of Ukrainians who are now suffering as a result of Russia's unjustified invasion of their nation. Thankfully, it seems that Romero's most recent project has been quite successful, as seen by the new Doom IImap, which has raised over €27,000 for Ukraine.
Romero charged players a nominal €5, or around $4.35 USD, for the One Humanity map. This puts the €27,000 sum into context by showing how many gamers made a substantial contribution to the cause. Romero said that the whole amount will be donated to the Ukrainian Red Cross and the UN Central Emergency Response Fund. In a recent tweet, Romero took sure to express gratitude to everyone who donated to his campaign.
Can I still make a contribution?
On Romero's official website, anybody who would still want to support his efforts may do so. To play the Doom IImap, players must have a current source port and an official copy of Doom II. This means that the map won't run on its own once it is downloaded.
Thus, this Doom IImap ought to be only one of many chances that gamers have to help the conflict victims in Ukraine. Romero is far from the only developer offering support to Ukraine, as seen by the large Itch.io bundle that was just released. Although the continuous combat is horrifying, players are not at all powerless in this circumstance.
