Scuba Steve's: Action DooM

About This File

Action Doom is meant to try and bring back the run and gun feeling from the old 2D shooters like Contra and Metal Slug. In the tradition of such games there are no bullet weapons, only projectiles. And just like Contra every enemy and subsequently you, all have but one hit point, aside from bosses and mini bosses.

To make the game feel more 2D and less frustrating, you will never be attacked from behind, and the level is entirely linnear.

This is actually really boring. If I wanted to play Contra and/or Metal Slug ever again, I'd use the simulacra you can download off the net. Give me Elevator Action any day. Or better yet, real Doom...

Note that this was made in 2004. But it still is great,even after playing Action Doom 2 (And its great to find the Hidden End if you play on hard mode "hint" "hint") 5 stars

No, we are not. Perhaps if you read some of the reviews above, you would realize this. Reviews get deleted on the basis of retardedness, so a shitload of both high-voting and low-voting reviews have been deleted from here.

Don't even bother correcting me. This is the worst wad i have ever played! Not a joke. It's so hard even on practice oh and why 100/1? Stupid thingy. Why are there never medikits? The weapons are unrelated to DooM. This is called action DooM and it has no relation to DooM! There's no way to skip the intro. This goes to the section of one of the worst DooM wads.

Oh ho HO! LEGENDARY INDEED! I loved it. It's one of those wads where everything is perfect. Well, not everything *coughdifficultycough*. Still, despite the ultra hardness, this is just an awesome awesome wad. Everyone should grab it. -lerner

The most original concept I have ever seen put into Doom, it easily earns a spot among the top wads ever created.

The amount of ACTION this wad has blew my brain out the back of my head, and onto the wall behind me! I loved it. Great atmosphere, awesome weapons, and very challenging. Something I love to see in a DooM wad. *****

      I genuinely enjoyed this mod with its level design and music. It was challenging and interesting and it kept me playing a while after beating it to try to find anything. though I would say it was slightly repetitive and overwhelming with enemies at some moments.

      Writing a review for Darkening 2 is tough. It's a beloved megawad, and for good reason. As many other reviewers have said, it is historically a very important project.   It was an important megawad for me personally. I fell in love with the first level in particular. The music, the realistic architecture, so reminiscent of the video games of the 90s... It all left a lasting impression. And it was one of the most beautiful wads I've seen at the time.   But I rarely played anyt

      A competently made map, for sure, but fun? It's way too long and repetitive, with same-y combat & ambush scenarios used again and again, and with way too much enemies, and not that much of a challenge, even for me who isn't exactly fond of "SUPER HARD WAD #9263!!!!11!. You can cut the whole thing in half, and then cut THAT half in half, and it would be a better map. Is it bad? No, just a little bit above average, mostly because it drags a bit too long.

      Generally good map design, but the difficulty as is the case with pwads tends to be uneven even on HMP, especially when you mix them with what slaughtermaps tend to be (monster spam). Too many parts where, after pressing a switch, you'll spend some time killing enemies only to realise the map maker tried to get cute and spawned a bunch of hidden archviles somewhere to start reviving everyone while you were busy wasting ammo. This is especially unfun in parts with very little cover where you'll b

      I like the part where I pay for the numerous murders I committed by getting beaten up by either a Mancubus or an Arachnotron, it changed my outlook on Monster Priority. Thank you "Problematic" Revenant #7, I have yet to find a way to repay him.
