New on MacSourcePorts.com: Heretic II

Self promotion

A while back someone made a source port for Heretic II - they melded Heretic II's game source with Quake II's engine source and got the one entry in the Heretic/Hexen series without a source port up and running again. Then someone forked it and made it run on UNIX-like systems. I took that port and got a signed and notarized Universal 2 app bundle going.

Usual rules apply - you need to supply your own copy of the game data (which is a little tricker this time because this game is not on digital services).

Yay for one more old school (if less known) game on the Mac.
