About This File

Just a quick note to go with these four wads--I think that everything is ready to go--no bugs or unintentional traps. Thanks to the folks that helped play test these (some are still waiting to be tried in co-op and/or deathmatch mode)and to my wife, Carolyn who designed and developed some parts of these. If you enjoy these, drop me a note. These sorts of things take a bunch of time to work out and encouragement is helpful. I'm going to do a few more wads that I won't upload to the general public and (depending on response) maybe I'll just shoot them to who ever is interested. Of course, this costs bucks--hmmm, I'll have to work out something. On the books now: Jewel.wad and Reactor.wad. Thanks for downloading this! Kurt Schulenburg 76360,3125

4 maps. FRED: Fun, violent, a little ugly though. Large arena with tons of monsters is the highlight. JSTUFF10: Wonderful, intricate design. Good looking, nice fights, ingenious secrets. SPIRAL: Very violent, complicated design, confusing but good nonetheless. WALLS: Least impressive, intricate design, but progression is really wierd and requires finding lots of secrets. Also much easier than the others. A strange helpless Cyberdemon at the end. Overall: Grades 3,5,4,2 gives a rounded average of --4/5

I think Fred was my very first level in Doom, put together in 1993, hence the ugliness of it! (I got better...)(Man! 15 years ago!) JStuff10 is acutally the 10th version of a wad that took forever to design and playtest. Spiral was a lot of fun to make, the spiral design really took a lot of doing to the textures correct. Walls was one of those that probably had too much thought given to the design - and not enough to the playability. It still works. Kurt Schulenburg, 2008

      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.
