* DuelingGames: The game came out in a year that saw a handful of other attempts at bringing a ''Franchise/{{Doom}}''-like FirstPersonShooter onto the Amiga, which also includes the likes of ''VideoGame/{{Fears}}'' and ''VideoGame/AlienBreed 3D''.
* HeyItsThatSound: The game samples a ''lot'' of sounds from ''Film/{{Aliens}}''. Many screams come from that movie, the item pickup sound is the pump of Hicks's shotgun, the mecha and door sounds are also derived from there. The game may as well be called "[[RedShirt Wierzbowski]] [[TheyKilledKennyAgain dies a lot]]".
* OneBookAuthor: Counting the original ''Gloom'' and ''[[UpdatedRerelease Deluxe]]'' as a single game, ''Gloom'' was Black Magic Software's only game.
* PermanentPlaceholder: In ''The One'' magazine's preview of the game, the programmer admited the game's name started out as a joke, and while he did consider some proper titles like ''[[UltraSuperDeathGoreFestChainsawer3000 Gorefest '95]]'' and ''[[UltraSuperDeathGoreFestChainsawer3000 Bloodbath]]'' they would up sticking with ''Gloom'' as they got used to it.
