    It seems that when interceptor bought 3D Realms earlier they also inherited about 25 years worth of backup hard disks and other development material. They are going through it now and finding early versions of duke 3D, shadow warrior and there might even be a 1996 build of Prey.

    I'd say there's a lot of builds of Duke Forever in there!

    Unfortunately dnf and prey builds can't be shown due to copyright.

    This is awesome! Love seeing stuff that never quite made the cut. Just a shame there are some legally murky IP's mixed in there so they have to take a lot more care before releasing the betas, unreleased builds, etc.

    Yeah' would love to have seen a build of dnf when it was using the quake engine. It looked much better than one that was released, for it's time of course.
