I could do M1, never tried a base map, would be fun for me. Textures, is it fine using the ones from ad wads? Plenty of base textures to choose from

Please only peeps that want to contribute to the jam.
@Giftmarcher
No worries, map 1 is yours.
Stick with the pak0, pak1, and maybe mission pack textures for now. We can look at other textures when you get to creating detail.
awesome :)
So I guess I'll work on the secret map

Do you have anyone in mind for coding/making the boss? I'd be up for that if nobody else is...

With gravity settings and various fixes, like fish count, may be a plus?

Start map will be made by a special guest.

Ionous was doing the boss level, if you want to collaborate with him on that, then I'm more than happy with that so long as he is.

Daz jumped into the discord and asked to do the start map, but if you want to do another secret map then you're more than welcome to join and contribute too.

This was suppose to be retro/painted with a rougher brush yea? Id1 architecture but +1, we can do better without it taking longer today :) and with texture alignment. I got the impression this is not a "every brick is a brush" kinda thing, focus is on solid gameplay

can i suggest the lava worm here?
https://www.quaddicted.com/reviews/virtus.html But it would become completely a mod.
If not and it's simpler to do, A chton with DoE's Lavamen. Bosses on their own are easy to exploit.

Five bucks that the changelevel triggers will lack the no intermission flag...
Actually, I expect a clever and intricate combination of skill selection and secret level in one!

As Lovecraft invented a ton of alien deitys/monsters it could be one of the other ones.
Remember to not make it a bulletsponge, like in any other 'modern' FPS.
Use the Zelda formula: Do some shit 3 times to kill the boss: e.g.: press 3 buttons to grille some dude in his jacuzzi because of some conveniently placed electrodes.
I wouldn't enjoy an original boss remade.
I don't have a clue how long it takes to make enemys for quake from scratch.
Would You Guys Consider Including A DM Map?
If so I like to do something and I've released some in the past. Although I should probably read this thread instead of scanning it. LMK.
@Giftmarcher
I linked the discord chat that we're using for communication earlier in this thread. Please join us. Everybody else who is participating is there.
@FifthElephant you too.
Hey Guys
