Waddle: WAD Player

Play the classic-Doom-engine games you own, anywhere. Waddle is a WAD player for iPhone and iPad: a game library and touch controls built around Woof! - the modern continuation of the Boom and MBF ports that faithfully preserves original gameplay while supporting today's mods, up through the MBF21 standard. Ready to play out of the box. Waddle bundles Freedoom Phase 1 and Phase 2: two complete, freely licensed games built by the Freedoom project for this engine family. Tap and play - nothing to configure. Bring your own WADs. Import WAD files you own from the Files app, iCloud Drive, or the share sheet - commercial IWADs you've purchased, or any of thousands of community-made maps and megawads. Zip archives and DeHackEd patches are supported. Every map set is a game. Import a megawad and it lands on your shelf as its own game, already paired with the right base game. Add-ons and DeHackEd patches attach to any game from its page, where you also set the load order and compatibility level (vanilla, Boom, MBF, MBF21 - or auto) and find its saves, which are kept per game. Play your way. Touch controls with two schemes (classic twin-stick and modern drag-to-turn), adjustable feel, and buttons you can drag wherever your thumbs want them - plus full support for game controllers and hardware keyboards. Walk into doors and switches to use them, and pan and zoom the automap by touch. Open source. Waddle is free software under the GPL-3.0; the engine it descends from is GPL-2.0-or-later. Source code for the entire app is available on GitHub. Waddle includes no copyrighted commercial game content. Only the freely licensed Freedoom data is bundled; commercial WADs must be imported by you, from copies you own. This app is not affiliated with or endorsed by id Software or Bethesda.
