    Voxel Doom

    A new mod that replaces all sprites with voxel models. It's my understanding that all of the models were recreated by hand to retain the look of the vanilla sprites. Looks better than any mod that tries to turn Doom 3D, in my opinion. https://www.moddb.com/mods/doom-voxel-project
