CLUSTER QUAKE-GAMES-EDITOR · 11 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2022-04-21

Classic game level editors

This cluster comprises open-source level and map editors for classic id Software, Doom, and Quake-engine games, including some extended to support related engines and physics asset creation. The dated entries are sparse, with a single entry in 2011, another in 2016, and the remaining five spread across 2021–2025, showing no strong growth trend. The leading members by activity signal are TrenchBroom, its AppImage variant, and netradiant-custom, all currently showing 0 stars.

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.

Two labels per entry, never collapsed into one: how it was built, and who stands behind it. Counted over the 11 listed below. Unlabelled means nothing has decided yet — not that the answer is small.
