Gloom Collection

ZGloom is a modern source port of the Amiga FPS Gloom with improved renderer. It is mainly focused on OUYA Android support (might work on other devices too).

Android / OUYA / Logitech G-Cloud port of the modern ZGloom engine, bringing the classic Amiga FPS Gloom and its successors to gamepad-driven Android devices.

Play Gloom, Gloom Deluxe, Gloom 3 and Zombie Massacre on Android and OUYA with a fixed renderer, widescreen support, post-processing overlays and save/load position – while staying faithful to the original Amiga gameplay.

ZGloom-Android is part of a family of cross-platform Gloom source ports that share the same renderer, options and feature set across desktop and console-style systems. This edition targets Android-based hardware such as the OUYA micro-console and Android TV boxes, with a focus on couch play using a controller.

🕹 What is Gloom? Gloom was a 1995 Doom-like first-person shooter from Black Magic Software for the Commodore Amiga. It featured very messy and meaty graphics and required a powerful Amiga at the time (an A1200 with 030 CPU was still on the low end). The engine later powered several related games and successors, including:

Gloom Deluxe / Ultimate Gloom – enhanced graphics and effects Gloom 3 Zombie Massacre Various full-game conversions of other 90’s Amiga titles ZGloom is a modern reimplementation of this engine.

✨ Key Features Modern source port of the Amiga Gloom engine Runs the original Gloom data files on Android devices (with a focus on OUYA and Android TV-style boxes) using the modern ZGloom C++ engine.

Supports multiple official games Play Gloom, Gloom Deluxe / Ultimate Gloom, Gloom 3 and Zombie Massacre (plus selected mods where available).

Built-in multi-game launcher If more than one game or mod is present, a simple launcher lets you pick what to play at startup.

4:3 and 16:9 display modes with FOV control Switch between the classic 4:3 Amiga look and a widescreen 16:9 mode and adjust the field of view to match your TV or monitor.

Improved renderer, lighting and effects Uses the fixed ZGloom renderer with cleaner perspective, fewer glitches and subtle lighting tweaks, including dust particles, dynamic muzzle flashes and colored floor reflections under projectiles and weapon upgrade orbs.

Atmospheric post-processing overlays (optional) Enable vignette, film grain and scanlines for a more gritty, CRT-style presentation without changing gameplay.

Save/Load position and extended options Save your in-level position (including health, weapon and ammo state) and tweak many more options than in the original Amiga release.
