About

A long time ago, in a culture far, far away... games were games and Duke Nukem was a badass. Take Dark Forces, the 1995 Star Wars shooter, add Duke Nukem 3D, the 1996 classic shooter, enhance these two with awesome levels made by the community, force powers, light sabers, new art and sprite edits galore, plus some new gameplay mechanics, and you get Duke Forces.
