It's no Duke Nukem 3D, but 3D Realms has released the source code to Rise of the Triad, the older Apogee shooter. It's a modest 4mb download and released under the GPL license. You can view a readme with comments from Scott Miller and Tom Hall here.

    Apogee releases Rise of the Triad, which was originally a sequel to Wolfenstein 3-D, until id decided to pull the rug on the project. ROTT, as it became known, had many innovations, such as being the first game with a parental lock-out feature, 11-player LAN games, 9 multiplayer games built-in, 5 characters (with unique attributes) to play, and it was shipped with a random level generator. Unfortunately, the 90-degree walls was a serious limitation passed down from the game's Wolfenstein 3-D engine roots. (It still sold over 150,000 copies, which is a "hit" by industry standards.)
