ROTT TTURNS TTWENTTY

Yesterday was the 20th anniversary of the shareware release of Rise of the Triad, Apogee's first-person shooter designed by Tom Hall. Former 3D Realms/Apogee webmaster/community manager Joe Siegler was one of the developers on ROTT, and he has posted a retrospective on his blog discussing the game in amazing detail, covering its history, the development team, insider anecdotes from its development, the recent ROTT remake, and more. The piece also includes behind-the-scenes photos, a video of unused capture sessions, and a tender homage to former 3D Realms programmer William Scarboro, who died in 2002. For those interested, the original Rise of the Triad is still available on GOG.com.
