It's a pretty bloody broad demand from them. According to the wording any use of their brand name "to attract internet users to your website" is deemed unacceptable. That means any fan site too, surely? Not that they'd be dumb enough to try that (hopefully).

Well, interesting development here, ZeniMax have just issued a cease and desist on DoomRL. Doesn't affect Jupiter Hell, but it sucks for a free, fan-made game that's been around 14 years :( In less depressing news, there has been a meaty Kickstarter update on gameplay and design and a video message from the game's voice actor (aka BroShep from Mass Effect).

Thanks! We'll have a new Roguelike Radio episode about Jupiter Hell in a few days :)

Jupiter Hell, successor to Doom the Roguelike, has launched a crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter. The creator of DoomRL is seeking £60k to complete a turn-based roguelike with modern 3D graphics and original metal soundtrack, with significant thematic inspiration from Doom. John Carmack has backed the project. The game is scheduled for release on PC/Mac/Linux late 2017, with an early alpha available Jan 2017.
