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.

Am I the only one getting a Duke Nukem vibe from this game? Two stars for the DN vibe, one for the impse, and one for the hidden Mario Brothers section on the first level to make it 4/5.

Too short. Good throwback to old games otherwise though.

Definitely a great Wad, though it was somewhat difficult at times, making it a little frustrating. Aside from that, it was definitely impressive. -Tango

Absolutely amazing, really brings you back to the old days of NES and Contra etc. From an arcade game standpoint, it's kinda short. But it's got replay value coming out of it's ass. And for a Doom2 wad with so much going on in it, it's not short at all. It's extremely exspansive actually.Graphics, scripting, sound. Everything is really grade A. Very true to the genre.5/5 -Kristus.

I love seeing projects such as this. The ones that go into territory outside of the typical doom game play. 5/5

This was one of the best mods i've played in a long time, i loved the car chase section! The only problem i fould was my temporary loss of sight when i idclip'ed my way into 'that' cell and had cheated to get nightvision because the flashing was making me feel sick... needless to say, i will never look at imps and doomguy the same way again... (shudder) But apart from that, 5 stars.

I say that it was very well done. To combine Doom with Metal Slug is very interesting. What I like to see if it is possible to simulate a side scrolling effect to make it play and feel like Metal Slug or Contra. The only thing I didn't like too much was the 1% health thing. I know it simulates the side scrollers but it gets a little annoying after a while. Still I like the creativity and the effort really does show. Excellent work Scuba Steve. -Alando1

Simply awesome! Quite a challenge too. I also liked how you can get the better ending on the hardest (NOT Nightmare) difficulty (much like in Contra III The Alien Wars for the Super Nintendo). So original! Loved it! 5/5

      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.
