Overlaying screenshots and photos with Google’s “Deep Dream” algorithm is now something everyone’s abusing and one perfect choice from the world of video games is the original Quake. The game’s dark, haunting, full of crazy textures and this process just adds an extra level of trippiness to it.
Quake came out in 1996 when 3dfx Voodoo cards ruled the market and these shots – made by Spirit on Quake’s Facebook – really look like someone ran the game with one of those cards but messed up everything in the setup.

Looks pretty much in theme, Quake was always creepy.
Shame they ditched that theme for the Cyberborg aliens.
Yeah, I didn’t really like Quake 2. At least by Q3 they realised that the game had pretty much become just a shell to run deathmatch multiplayer in and ditched the pretense.
now THAT’S a bad acid trip….
I am unfamiliar with both Deep Dream and Quake, so… everything here looks pretty normal to me 😛
A bunch of shitty, noisy textures.
Does this mean I should play Quake next time I drop acid?
It’s Peacock-tacular!
So, apart from running screenshots through the filters, has anyone yet passed all the textures through and released that as a mod yet?
