However, he wouldn't include these in the archive as a file_id.diz file. Scott would also make these nice descriptions for the files in the file listing of SWC's file area.

Like most everyone else at the time, I was rather enthralled with Commander Keen & the original Duke Nukem like most people who were playing PC games at the time were. How did I get my start? Well, that goes way back to 1990 when I was a customer of the company. Well, my name is Joe Siegler, and I'm the webmaster for Apogee / 3D Realms. Your name is probably familiar to many of my visitors, but I'd like to start by asking you who you are and how you got your start in the games industry. 5,295 days from that is 13 Dec, 2025.Interview with Joe Siegler - 31 January 2006Īn interview with someone from Apogee seemed long overdue and Joe Siegler, the man who wrote the installers for Apogee's classic games and is responsible for the company's website, was kind enough to be my first interview of 2006. Why? That’s the 1st date that DNF will have been out longer than it took to develop. It wasn’t super heavy duty development there, just Todd, as the ROTT and Duke teams were working on the original Prey, so it was small time stuff he was doing." Todd Replogle was farting around with some Quake tech and ideas in his office.

It was in December 1996, very shortly after we released the v1.5 update for Duke Nukem 3D (the final one).

"I remember when we started development.

This comment likely means that the decision to put the side-scroller on ice came soon after. Siegler then goes on to state in the same blog post that internal development of Duke Nukem Forever at 3D Realms began on the 15th. The forth build of the leaked lot is complied on the 8th, this build also seems to be the last prototype of the side scroller era.Īccording to Joe Siegler, after the release of v1.5 for Duke Nukem 3D, Todd Replogle, one of Duke's co-creators and a programmer on Duke 3D begins experimenting in the Quake engine, while the rest of 3D Realms is busy working on Prey. Yes, we're working on a scroller, it's called Duke Nukem Forever. :)Ĩth sees the first of the 1996 protoypes (and possible of ALL prototypes) completed, its mostly an empty level.Ģ4th sees yet again another build complied this month! Is APOGEE working on any new platform games? On the 7th at 5 PM, Joe Siegler, web wizard for 3D Realms, is asked this question on Usenet: And, of course, he'll have his legendary attitude and Duke Talk(tm). Duke will have several familiar weapons, like the shotgun, RPG and Ripper, plus several new weapons. The graphics will be very realistic and dark in style, and not cartoonish like the first two Duke platform games.

Duke will climb chains/poles, ladders, walk hand- over-hand along wires and pipes, do midair flips and ride several vehicles, including a jet ski and a Harley. We're using the same Duke model from Duke Nukem 3D and adding dozens of new frames. DN Forever is not a sequel though, rather it's simply another episode in the life of Duke, just like each episode of Star Trek is not a sequel to the previous episode.ĭN Forever will be a side-scrolling platform game similar to the original two Duke games, but with far better technology and graphics. Scott: Geoff, we are also making Duke Nukem Forever, which will be out next Christmas for sure.

I do expect to be in full production in a sequel to Duke by Xmas 1996. Possibly with polygon characters, but we are still in the fact finding stages. It is likely we will do one more 25-30 level game with an improved Build engine. We are deciding now what technology we will use.

George: There will be a sequel to Duke Nukem 3D. GSW: What can you tell us about the next Duke Nukem game? Can we expect a sequel for Holiday 1997?
