Helpyourselfish

The title of the WAD didn't catch my attention at all, so I only played it in 2021 for the first time, 11 years after 'Rip It, Tear It, Smash It!'. It's a rare Hansen creation with Doom II monsters, big, beautiful, with interesting layout and equally interesting secrets. The only annoying thing was the level of playtesting, I easily break the map in many different locations, and not very consistently. The passage near invulnerability sometimes doesn't open. There's the lava tunnel Memfis mentioned. The backpack secret can punish you if you are not a pro at 'parkour'. Still, a very enjoyable experience.

I personally don’t like large maps, because I cannot play it when I need to have a short break. Therefore this one was laying on my HDD for some time.
I like maps from Chris and this one is also good example of his skills. The layout is really complex and interconnected, but you always know where to go. Some rooms were too cramped, but it is probably the only negative aspect I’ve found. And I also like the background music. :)

it's an alright map. quite a bit of switchhunting ruins the vibes for me when playing it though, but when the combat is there, it's pretty well done. interesting usage of difficulty settings in this one too.

With a great music track, excellent visuals and varied gameplay, Helpyourselfish is a must to check out. You might get a bit lost once or twice (hint: look for newly opened paths) but the overall progression is clear and the map flow is great. None of the fights feel unfair, on HMP the action feels rather tense at times but there's just enough health around to keep you going. My only gripe are the places where you can fall into lava and die without possibility of escape.
