I cannot imagine what any of this means to people who don’t know England.

He’s made so much more than I’ve included here.

I strongly recommend just scrolling throughthe Twitter threadwhere he posts progress.

An absolute joy and weird reminder of just how daft England is.

You have to understand: this is one of the most English Englands I’ve seen in video games.

Dan Douglas is catching the weirdness while it whizzes past at breakneck pace, preserving modern England for posterity.

At some point, he will release this as a Duke Nukem 3D level we can actually play.

Until then, yes, do follow Dan and that thread.
