Doom 2016 — Omarchy theme

Remember the Jump 'n' Shoot? The Secrets? The Industrial Glitch Metal? Sadly Mick Gordon hasn't figured out how to get into our hypr systems, oh well, that's what cliamp is for. What if your desktop matched that praetor-green HUD on hellfire orange instead of another flat dark mode that could belong to anyone? Hyprland’s active border runs the same dual-accent trick as Asphalt, HEV, Galuga, CS, Cyber Shadow, Eternal, Caged, KI, Rising, Stanley, SF6, T2D & USFIV: praetor green → hellfire orange at 45°.

Slayer theme for Omarchy. Inspired by the look of DOOM (2016) — not affiliated with id Software or Bethesda Softworks (see Credits below).

The only Omarchy “doom” pack that turned up was AX200M/omarchy-doom-theme — that’s MF DOOM (the rapper), not the 2016 reboot. Windows Rainmeter suites (“Doom Marine Green”, “The Argent Tower”) and wallpaper packs exist, but they don’t port cleanly. This one was built from Steam library / promo art and HUD-less shots the same way as Asphalt Legends, HEV Suit, Operation Galuga, Counter-Strike, Cyber Shadow, Doom Eternal, Half-Life Caged, Killer Instinct, Metal Gear Rising, Stanley Parable, Street Fighter 6, Terminator 2D: NO FATE, and Ultra Street Fighter IV.

Install

omarchy theme install https://github.com/AlxWolfenstein97/omarchy-doom-2016-theme.git
# optional — About + screensaver ASCII for this theme (skippable; see Branding)
cp ~/.config/omarchy/themes/doom-2016/about.txt ~/.config/omarchy/branding/about.txt
cp ~/.config/omarchy/themes/doom-2016/screensaver.txt ~/.config/omarchy/branding/screensaver.txt

That clones and applies the theme (omarchy-theme-set runs inside theme install). Do not follow with another omarchy theme set — a second set skips the first wallpaper and just wastes a switch.

Or clone into place (then you do need an explicit set):

git clone https://github.com/AlxWolfenstein97/omarchy-doom-2016-theme.git ~/.config/omarchy/themes/doom-2016
omarchy theme set "Doom 2016"
# optional branding — same as above
cp ~/.config/omarchy/themes/doom-2016/about.txt ~/.config/omarchy/branding/about.txt
cp ~/.config/omarchy/themes/doom-2016/screensaver.txt ~/.config/omarchy/branding/screensaver.txt

Already installed and just switching back later:

omarchy theme set "Doom 2016"
# optional — re-apply this theme’s About / screensaver marks
cp ~/.config/omarchy/themes/doom-2016/about.txt ~/.config/omarchy/branding/about.txt
cp ~/.config/omarchy/themes/doom-2016/screensaver.txt ~/.config/omarchy/branding/screensaver.txt

Cycle wallpapers with omarchy theme bg next.

What’s in the pack

Branding (About / screensaver)

Optional. Omarchy’s About screen and screensaver read from ~/.config/omarchy/branding/. Shipping per-theme .txt marks isn’t original — other Omarchy 3.x themes did it — but it’s the fast path if you want this pack’s wordmark on idle and on About without hunting files.

Prefer the .txt files and the cp lines in Install. That’s what you’re meant to see. Editing the text also works (Style → About / Screensaver → Edit Text).

Skip the cp if you already have custom logos / screensaver art you care about — or back those up first. The branding slot is really meant for your marks (put personal art somewhere easy to reach). The Style file picker works, but drilling into ~/.config/omarchy/themes/... is slow busywork for something optional. Don’t feel obliged to bring mine.

The .png versions are here for the README and for a quick Style → Set From Image try. In my experience Omarchy’s image→ASCII path is a bit thinicky on color and boxing, so don’t expect magic from the PNGs — the hand text is the good path.

Screensaver / logo ASCII has no empty lines (dense pack from the official 2016 sawtooth wordmark; About is a Praetor helmet silhouette).

Unlock

Style → Unlock → pick this theme (unlock.png / preview-unlock.png).

Extend further with plugins

This repo is palette + assets on purpose. Omarchy already colour-coordinates the shell, terminals, and editor from colors.toml. The plugins below push that idea as far as it can reasonably go — optional extenders, not required theme baggage. Themes keep working without them; authors can stick to the snappier stock pipeline if they prefer.

They do not depend on each other. Pick what you want; run the whole inch-a-lada if you want the desktop to feel like yours.

The big sweep

Boom-in — one paste. --enable --yes skips the per-plugin clone/enable prompts; arm-all then arms deps + Style/theme-set + root/SDDM/DRM (no Y/n). Omit any plugin add line you do not want; arm-all only touches what is installed. Sudo may ask once — that is the boom, not a menu.

omarchy plugin add https://github.com/AlxWolfenstein97/chroma.git --enable --yes
omarchy plugin add https://github.com/AlxWolfenstein97/omaobs.git --enable --yes
omarchy plugin add https://github.com/AlxWolfenstein97/omacursor.git --enable --yes
omarchy plugin add https://github.com/AlxWolfenstein97/omahud.git --enable --yes
omarchy plugin add https://github.com/AlxWolfenstein97/omaboot.git --enable --yes
omarchy plugin add https://github.com/AlxWolfenstein97/omavt.git --enable --yes
omarchy plugin add https://github.com/AlxWolfenstein97/omatty.git --enable --yes
~/.config/omarchy/plugins/io.github.alxwolfenstein97.chroma/tools/arm-all-family.sh

Boom-out — one paste. Teardown + ledger pkg drop + plugin remove. Ledger drops only what we recorded pulling; may fail and stay if something else still needs the package (e.g. Goverlay after Pillow) — fine. Loud boom-in after this is enough — no tombstone purge needed (optional OCD flag lives on the plugin READMEs).

~/.config/omarchy/plugins/io.github.alxwolfenstein97.chroma/tools/wipe-all-family.sh

Piece-meal (not boom): one plugin’s Workshop paste — plugin add + interactive install.sh (asks [Y/n]) — lives on that plugin’s GitHub README. Single-plugin full wipe: …//uninstall.sh --yes.

Taste

Colours and contrast are tuned for what I like to look at. If they feel loud or wrong for you, fork and retune colors.toml without guilt.

Credits / legal-ish

• Visual inspiration and reference art from id Software / Bethesda Softworks’ DOOM (2016) branding and marketing (Steam library hero / logo, official key art, HUD-less Steam store screenshots). Not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by id Software or Bethesda Softworks. Just public pixels arranged into an Omarchy theme — no money, no official product.
• Wallpaper 0-hell-horde also appears on Wallhaven (yj7pld); composition matches the official hell-horde key art without title overlay.
• 1-praetor-fire / 3-cyberdemon / 7-slayer-mono likewise appear on Wallhaven (6qzqox, 76q62y, zxdz3y).
• Steam store shots used for 2 / 4 / 5 / 6 were checked for HUD and logo overlays before shipping — the UAC-foundry store shot with an in-world facility logo was dropped on purpose.
• If id or Bethesda hates this existing, they can say so and I’ll deal with the repo accordingly.

Do whatever you want with this theme pack unless id Software, Bethesda Softworks (or the law) says otherwise. Fork it, recolor it, ship it in a rice. No warranty — it’s wallpaper and hex codes.
