About This File

Inspired by episodes of TJHooker when ol' Bill Shatner hurtles his toupe packin' body over numerous chasms to snag the bad guy.

Made for Doom2, Map01

This wad serves several purposes.

It is large, and may not run well on slower computers with monsters, or during Deathmatch. For this reason I have mad the Easy settings have no monsters. In this difficulty setting you must jump across 9 rooftops in order to reach the exit. Consider it a test of your Doom agility. Very challenging.

Then there are monsters on the Hurt Me Plenty setting. Very tough to kill monsters AND jump across these rooftops. If you can do this, you're a STUD.

Then there's UltraViolence. Even more monsters. If you can do this, then you are a Doom ANIMAL!

Then there's Deathmatch. You can do it cooperatively against the monsters, or (as I suggest) play without. The level is large, so it works best with four people to keep the Frag count up. But if you like a good hunt, this is for you.

pretty good, very unique style of level. That damn arch vile pissed me off, knocked me off the roofs.

This is dated February 1995. It's a kind of small town level where you start at ground level and then climb up to some rooftops; the design is simple but there's a decent lot of baddies. It reminded me of a level from "Thief II". Suffers from the fact that several of the monsters don't wake up until you're on their platform, so you can snipe them, including an arch vile; and it builds up to a boss battle that never comes. It's like a prototype of an okay level.

      Unloved

      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.

      The Darkening Episode 2
      By LouigiVerona · Posted
      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

      The Revenant Problem

      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.
