Just beat the first map. Brutal! As usual not really my kind of gameplay with those monsters. Great visuals and good design.
Best Start Map Ever
The secret secret difficulty path was a bunch of fun, as was the reward (secret). I ended up taking skill 0 though :(
Map 1 here I come!
Fuck
Map 1 done.
219/226 kills (and that's on Easy skill wtf!)
1/2 secrets (the one towards the end)

What on Earth was this?? Like someone said, I never want to see the inside of your head. This map felt like a decade worth of Quake maps put through a meat grinder. The sheer randomness of this made it so great - there's just so many different kinds of stuff thrown at the player.
The theme was random, but not incoherent or disparate - just very fucked up :D It was very evil, and yet somewhat passive aggressive in the way it functioned. Can't put my finger on this at all...
Anyone remember the "Quake V brainstorm" thread from many moons ago? There was a bit of speculation about the final episode being Quake's twisted, brutal heartland etcetc. This map suits that idea like a glove :D
The gameplay was very much Tronyn, though I enjoyed the fact that I didn't get slaughtered every second (well balanced). The abundance of cells, combined with the Mjolnir/Blaster pretty much mitigated the strength of the (sometimes hilarious) hordes. The ice bolt crossbow thing felt questionable in theory but worked out well.
No demo because I suck _____ _____ (fill in the blanks)

You know what? FUCK YOU GUYS. How DARE you wait until I am out of town, away from my computer for a week, to release this. YOU GUYS ARE TRULY EVIL AND HAVE HATE-FILLED HEARTS.
I will probably be able to play this sometime in 2010, but not until then. I hope you all choke on your own new year's eve vomit.
Thanks for the maps!
Awesome!!!

Well worth the wait, awesome stuff guys! All 3 levels looked great and were a big challenge, especially the ending. That was a right bitch, as expecting.
Oh Holy Shit Wow

I remember running around in the "scrapped" pieces of A Roman Wilderness many moons ago. Despite being unfinishable and having no lighting there were some really crazy ideas in there. I didn't think it would ever see the light of day in a finished form.
How wrong I was! I'll rock it out this evening.
