Scuba Steve's: Action DooM

   (633 reviews)

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 WAD deserves a gold medal for having the densest amount of goods packed into just four levels. ***** -Huy

Yeah, it's okay. Pretty over-rated. At least I can say I've played it so I can give a legit comment on it, if nothing else. ;o) 3/5.

You look me in the eye and fucking tell me right in my face it's overrated right now. Don't have the balls, now, do you? :) Despite it being WAY too short which would (normally) knock off a star, an extreme replay value, tons of music, and a different feel than normal Doom more than make up for this shortcoming. The weapons and extras are a nice touch to add to that 'old-school' 2D shooter feel, even though it's still (of course) still in 3D. 5 out of 5. --prdarkfox

This was literally the first ZDooM WAD file I ever played. I used to play JDooM and I decided to download ZDooM to play this and see what all they hype was about. I must say it is probably one of the most awesome and well put together WADs I have ever seen to date. ^_^;

Pretty Good. The concept doesn't always work and it's really really hard at times, but overall well worth a look.

This wad is amazing from an artistic point of view. Loads of awesome graphics and amazing new scripting. But this would never qualify as a commercial release. It is way too hard and frustrating. Gameplay is very unfair. Heck, I died a zillion times on the practice skill! 4 stars --- Starburst.

I also feel this is overrated. Given how many technical hurdles were overcome, it's rather disappointing that the levels do not play all that well. 4/5

This ia a wad with interesting aspects. There's a count of a "score" on the screen, but I couldn't make out, what it was good for. The ambience is quite impressive. It all started very interesing; however, in the first map, in a place which was surrounded by bomb throwing machinery, I got stuck. The way back was cut and I didn't find a way to proceed. This shouldn't occur in Doom maps, regardless of all originality. 1/5 -Milian

you know, there are many bonus levels. while playing the game, type in the idclev cheat code, and put numbers 06 to 29, and you will warp to extra stages. I think that those extra stages are just leftover levels from the beta stages of Action Doom.

      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.
