Missed this when it happened in November 2023 - but someone got a CD with all the MacPlay source code - letters from John Carmack about development, some emails from employees talking about optimizations - some 040 assembly - and a bunch more.

I know people always hate on the Mac port of Doom, but I played it quite a bit on my PowerMac 6115/CD back in the day.

I hope to see a Doom030 in the future, like how we have 386Doom and 8088Doom. Even on an early PowerPC, Doom on Mac ran kinda bad.
