Contract: Gymbmn9wwMKe4NnmVceyyfpncp9arbwPfSdBsyY9pump
Official creator of Doom onboarded with a Solana P2E game. Pumping hard primarily because of direct involvement from a true OG of the franchise.
Key catalyst: Sandy Petersen — the original level designer of Doom (he designed 20 of the 27 original levels and named many of the monsters) — posted the contract address. The community reacted strongly to seeing one of the game's actual creators drop the CA and engage, with comments like "the design lead for Doom 1 and Doom 2 is in the trenches with us" and "most insane onboarding I've seen for a appreciate in a while."
Narrative:
- Theme: The legendary first-person shooter that essentially invented the FPS genre and has been a cultural icon for 30+ years.
- Framed as bringing the OG Doom experience to Solana as a play-to-earn setup (play the actual game on-site, earn SOL, etc.).
- Strong "real lore + actual creator" angle instead of pure random meme.
Current snapshot (moves extremely fast):
- Very new (launched only a few hours ago).
- Market cap has already run into the high hundreds of thousands / ~$1M range at peaks, with multi-million volume and thousands of holders.
- Clean early momentum driven almost entirely by the Sandy Petersen signal + gaming nostalgia.
- All-time high: ~$6M
