Doom Must Fall

Game: Doom Year: 1995 Port: Any Specs: E2M1-E2M9 in the original package; Sparky's is E1M1, with the big showcase level being E2M8 in the original Gameplay Mods: Some weapon mods as well as random powerups Author: Fairfax Shield "Mackey" McCandlish aka "Avatar" idgames | doomwiki | onemandoom

In the year 2097, humans control HARs (Human Assisted Robots) and, uh, I guess fight each other in tournament combat. BUT! In Doom Must Fall, you're a bounty hunter who has been hired to oust a pirate organization named Iron Fist from its fortress. You get close when the pirates start teleporting invaders onto your personal spacecraft. You have to fend them off before you counterattack, beaming into their labyrinthine structure.

This TC is a fangame of one of Epic's lesser-known properties. If you've played Hell to Pay then you may be familiar with Mackey's 3D modelling of sprites already. I think that it looks a little better here because there are no clashes with Doom's original sprites. E2M8--E1M1 in the repackaging--is a cool, wildly abstract outing that reminds me of crazy early 3D-rendered games.

I'm close to done with my vanilla doom mod set in Yangshuo County... including a recreation of the Moon Hill. Not much I could do to really do it justice, but I'm pleased with the end result.

It will also incorporate my Bite-Sized Threat gameplay mod, which dramatically reduces both enemy health and ammo supply.

My NaNoWADMo 2022 project, now called Deadliest Dem(o(li)ti)on, is not too far from done!

Codename HYENA: Killer Machine

Game: Doom II Year: 1998 Source Port: Any Specs: E1M1-E1M9, E2M1-E2M9 (E3M1-E3M9 deathmatch) Gameplay Mods: Weapon and monster alterations Author: Unholy Software (Kristian Kall aka “Kristus” and “Nimrod”) idgames | onemandoom

Satanic terrorists have assassinated the President of the United States and his family. You are an elite member of the US-aligned Terrorist Force Defence Organization, codenamed HYENA. You are out for vengeance.

Before so many wicked cool Legacy mods and other things from Kristus there was this, a mescaline-infused Doom clone featuring cyborg horrors and technological terrors as well as a cast of plain’ ol terrorists.  For every decent-looking screenshot I have two or more bits of absolute weirdness that are worth seeing if you’re into the wild and crazy aspects of user creativity. The third episode looks to be mostly single-player originals that were gutted in one way or another for deathmatch so if you don’t mind using the warp command then you might -idclev to them for wild stuff like a badass Mortal Kombat floor emblem.

I would strongly caution against pistol-starting these levels and you are probably better off on a lower difficulty-setting. Some of the horde-style monster placement with hitscanners and all can be brutal.

Yangshuo Invasion! Vanilla Doom 1 mod inspired by Knee-Deep In The Dead’s sky texture, full of exciting gameplay changes, and also with Lorelei Ni.

Well, now I'm working on my NaNoWADMo 2022 project, and it's going alright!
