WinDoom is an early port of DOOM v1.8 for Windows 3.1x, made by Gabe Newell and Robert Hess. It used Win32s and WinG APIs to enhance graphics and sound, and supported MIDI music. It had some technical issues, but was playable. WinDoom was never released and was replaced by DOOM 95, which used DirectX and was a showcase for Windows 95.
