Okay a very peculiar question here, but hear me out. I saw someone on Youtube playing a TACTICAL TURN-BASED RPG that was DOOM. It had the same sprites, textures and everything else. I'm not sure if it was made in the DOOM engine or not, but this is my question... can DOOM be coded to play as a tactical turn based RPG? In other words, could I make one using the DOOM engine??
Thank you in advance.

Re: Tactical Turn-Based RPG?
GZDoom can be coded to make almost any kind of game. However, and I don't mean any offense, this requires HEAVY amounts of programming knowledge and skill. Better start brushing up on that object-oriented programming fundamentals!Hidden Hands wrote:can DOOM be coded to play as a tactical turn based RPG?

Re: Tactical Turn-Based RPG?
I'd say that it would be far easier to code something like this in Unity than in the Doom engine.
