@Mostcus @davidlcraddock Hey Mikhail, unfortunately/fortunately we've already sent the final files to the printers on this one, so no backer list in the book itself. At the top tier we are doing one online, though

At the Boss Fight blog: my interview with
@davidlcraddock about BUT CAN IT RUN DOOM?

Over email we discussed the Doom history beat, selecting stories for the new book, the art of the game port, writing habits, Doom's creators, and Mina the Hollower.

@romero Thanks so much for your contributions to the book, John :)

[John Romero 🤘🏽 @romero]

David Craddock’s next book, But Can It Run DOOM, is on Kickstarter. I wrote the book’s foreword! Check it out if you’re interested in reading about how we made DOOM with porting in mind, and all the ways people have ported the game over the years. https://t.co/TnAbusQFbf

Sounds really cool

I’m thrilled to announce BUT CAN IT RUN DOOM?, a book about tinkerers porting #Doom to everything under the sun—featuring a foreword by John @Romero. It’s being published by @BossFightBooks, and the Kickstarter is live now! https://t.co/KkIwPbsgf2

[Boss Fight Books @BossFightBooks]

We're also releasing a deluxe hardcover edition of BUT CAN IT RUN DOOM?

The hardcover features a book's worth of bonus content: in-depth interviews with id's John Romero, John Carmack, and Tom Hall, and another interview with Doom 64/PS1 composer Aubrey Hodges.

[Boss Fight Books @BossFightBooks]

Based on original interviews, David L. Craddock tells the story of how clever tinkerers got Doom running on a pregnancy test, a pair of earrings, an Ikea lamp, a field of Minecraft sheep, a Twitter bot, and many more platforms.

[George Broussard @georgebsocial]

This book on Spelunky is fucking great, btw. If you have any interest in game design or being a designer it's worth getting this book. Not to mention all the cool and clever specifics how Spelunky was created.

[Boss Fight Books @BossFightBooks]

@magnusfurcifer @mossmouth Yeah, it's out already

[Boss Fight Books @BossFightBooks]

Preorders are now open for our reprint of SPELUNKY by
@mossmouth. Same great book but featuring a new cover drawn by Derek himself! The new paperbacks will go out late this month.

One of the most beautiful elements of my SUPER MARIO GALAXY book releasing in this moment is that it synced up with @GabeDurham and I becoming fathers. Really loved this interview!

[Boss Fight Books @BossFightBooks]

Today on the Boss Fight blog, I interview SUPER MARIO GALAXY author @JordanWMinor!

Over email we discuss book pitches, Rosalina's storybook, girldad life, Donkey Kong, the Galaxy Movie, Switch 2, and the game's new enhanced version.

@The_Alex_64 Totally. It's CRAZY right now. If you like to buy from any Canadian stores who do imports, we could work with them directly
