MoP: Ah, Halloween Harry, our brief shareware adventure really needs to be concluded one of these days.

Pseudoman: I'm pretty sure that game was released as freeware: Alien Carnage/Halloween Harry
Still would be sweet to have that or Bio Menace here, depending on which is better. (I liked Bio Menace better, personally.)
Hope they bring Commander Keen, Crystal Caves and Wolfenstein 3D to GOG.

... aren't the Keen and Wolfenstein games owned by Id, who's owned by Zenimax, therefore NO CHANCE IN HELL?

StingingVelvet: The fall of 3D Realms is truly one of the more interesting stories in gaming. Top of the world to nothing, with no reason other than managerial idiocy.
This would be a documentary worth watching, imo. The Rise and Fall.

Well, on Steam both Wolfenstein 3D and Commander Keen are indeed listed with iD as the publisher.

I'm not too sure. While Wolfenstein 3D is indeed mentioned as being sold by id/Bethesda on GamersGate, both it and Commander Keen can be normally purchased by the 3D Realms site. An exception perhaps?

Just in case... it appears that Bio Menace is freeware as well: Bio Menace

I agree, it would be good to see more freeware games here on GOG, but I guess it must be a matter working out something in the legal departments.

Interestingly, when I tweeted Apogee about Bio Menace, they seemed pretty indifferent about it. But we may be seeing Wacky Wheels come in the next few months, depending on what Cascadia decides.
I'd like to see Prey on here. Prey 2 was supposed to come out a few years ago too, and turned into vaporware. Would be nice to see Interceptor work with Human Head Studios to get it pushed out.

The Fall of the Triad?
I am personally happy that interceptor is doing well. I wonder what triggered Apogee to sell the rights to Interceptor?
Okay, so they 'only' acquired 3D Realms/Apogee Software Ltd., not Apogee Software LLC:

Update - it is SND Invest, not Interceptor Entertainment, who bought 3D Realms.

SND Invest is part-owner of Interceptor Entertainment.

You can let Interceptor know what you want to see them do with the 3D Realms brand here:
