Today marks the 25th anniversary of the release of Quake. To celebrate, I'd like to share some news from across the community.

Blue Monday is an awesome "blue themed" map pack from some of the best Quake mappers in the community.

Head on over to Makkon's Twitter post where he has links to some of his amazing texture creations.

This is a guide to show you how to get Quake running on the modern QuakeSpasm engine but keep the traditional "software-rendered" chunky look.

Thanks to the phenomenal effort of some of the best Quake mappers in the community, here is the XMAS JAM 2020.

This guide will show you everything involved with getting TrenchBroom up and running on Windows ready to create and compile Quake II maps.

Following my last feature, and continuing the theme of Quake appearing in 90s Australian video game magazines, here I present to you some of the Quake articles from the magazine PC PowerPlay. This was the the sister magazine of Hyper which I previously featured, and as of July 2020, is the only Australian PC gaming focused magazine still being published. In fact it has now lived on longer than it's older sibling Hyper which has since been discontinued. PC PowerPlay is today published by Future.

This is the first in a series of attempting to capture the media buzz around Quake in 1996/97.
