Oh, that's good to hear - it seemed bad that the demo (in Debian) is not
actually a realistic demo of what you would get (in Debian) if you
bought the full game from Steam, because it defaults to a different
engine that is more advanced but less faithful to the original game :-)

I'd be happy to swap it back to chocolate-doom (>= x.y) | hexen-engine
when a suitable version is available - please open a bug when ready.
