Thread closed, GG. 

Great work, enjoyed both maps. Nice quadrun in Fifth's. Spend a lot of time in the demo of Skacky's map wandering around looking for secrets or trying to perform various jumps. Impressive what you guys manage to achieve in just a few short days. The only criticism I have is that I got a little lost in Skacky's map a couple of times due to everything looking quite similar on the silver/gold key-floors, but that's nitpicking.

Skill 3 demos

Fifth's: 73/73 kills, 3/3 secrets, 11 minutes

Skacky's: 112/112 kills, 6/7 secrets, 30 minutes 

You have such an alien playstyle. You got the grenade launcher secret in a completely unintended way for example. And getting from the lift to the window ledge was funny. Cool demo. :) 

Played through Skacky's now. Guess I got into a bad streak yesterday where I never got a rest from attacks (constant onslaught...) and the sounds of the ogres really got on my nerves. Nice map as well! I also played through it on Nightmare just to make sure I did not suddenly lose my manliness, no problems there. 

I told you it was okay, glad it was good this time.

And no it's not about manliness, it's about consistency. 

And I told you it was not about the skill. 

HTH.

Enjoy. Probably wont be up forever. 

 

I was going to have a rune at the beginning and then when you went through either door you got dropped into a hellish room filled with spawns via a 2nd playerstart.

But I am drained with all the mapping. 

Oh wait... ffs.. I know what you mean 

Enjoy your demise as you fall to the void.

Now, THAT's a start map !

Feels perfectly in harmony with both maps.

Now, that pack is complete. Thanks a lot !

(I'll also try to play the start map using the DMSP mod, to add one thousands monstrers in it... in nightmare mode!) 

just have a spawn point though? 

Not Dmsp compatible tbh 

Was just kidding with the DMSP on the start map.

Could be fun, however, to trigger some random monster waves on a start map, after hiting some secret button somewhere.

I still believe that start maps are underused. Start maps with lots traps and puzzles to solves, before selecting a skill and a map gate.

Like Indiana Jones in that Inca temple, walk on the wrong tile (while running to a gate) and get a smash on the face !

Or solve a puzzle of some sort to activate the hidden gates... 

You're looking for Tomb Raider. 

... 

There's a mod called doom raider. You should check it out 

 

Monster-free map jam. Come on! 

Someone needs to do a puzzle based mod with a set of logic entities (and/or, gating, etc) and a nicely controllable mover system. Using the stock set is ... challenging. 

In style, not necessarily theme. I'm thinking the traps, false traps, and ambushes. 

 

Both very nice maps and fun to play. Have some demos made, but i might want to improve them still (especialy the run on fifth is realy hard for me to do how i want it to)
