What Hacker News says

How awesome is it that you can pickup an old game, one of your favorites maybe, read the actual source code - which might even have a modern analysis discussed at length by Fabien Sanglard - and then play the game... with all of the community's latest tweaks/optimizations... AND then ... when you come across a bug ... you can code the fix yourself! After reading this article, I compiled Duke Nukem 3D and played enough to find something that bothered me. Just pushed a fix for horizontal mouse-look/strafing (to Fabien's 'chocolate' repo): https://github.com/fabiensanglard/chocolate_duke3D It's like this weird connection to the original devs ... and my childhood.
In The Man Behind the Curtain: Commercial games with source code releases

A true gem is hidden down at the end of the first page: https://github.com/fabiensanglard/chocolate_duke3D [...] a port of the Vanilla source code with two goals in mind: Education: Easy to read/understand and very portable. Fidelity: The gaming experience should be similar to what ran in 1996 on our 486s. And from the README: Aimed at education: A lot of comments and documentation has been added in order to help programmers to understand and learn.
