Five Minutes of Hell

About This File

Basically, this is a temple in hell that can be blazed through in 5 minutes. No real plot, just demons getting blown away.

This wad originally began life as part of what was going to be a 9 map set for Vanilla Doom, but I abandoned it after switching to Zdoom. Then I took bits of maps 2, 3, and 5, converted them to Zdoom format, put them together, and added some basic Zdoom functions and scripts. It was going to be part of the Doomworld Mega Collab (or whatever it was called), but I missed the deadline. It gathered dust on my hard drive for a few months, until recently when I decided to polish it up and release it anyways.

One more thing. Given that this is my first public release, I'd appreciate some constructive criticism so that I know what to improve next time.

Stealth monsters just pointless, and you used it badly too. The level itself just okay, but feel you could do better. And about the monster trap fail to teleport on the yellow key room, since I tested all release versions of ZDooM can run this WAD(2.0.96 to 2.8.1), all have this problem so I don't know if author ever test it before release... 3/5 -playerlin

Hey Linkrulezall, it's Faceplant from Pirated Games Central! Knew I recognized that name. Anyway, this is a fun blast of a map that gives you just enough ammo to get by, but you'll always have a few spare rockets. There's a circular room with an intersection that leads to 2 different battles, I like that. In that room, once the bars come down, there are missing textures. Overall this is fun, download it nao!

Started out very well, but ran out of steam later on. At least one sidedef (1830) is missing a lower texture (crouch in sector 219 and you can see the HOM). More than 20 monsters failed to teleport in for me in the yellow key area, although that may be GZDoom's fault rather than the map's. All in all, fun, but not super-special. 3.5/5 - ZZ

Boo, stealth monsters (only 4 fortunately). Also the "music" was just a single note for me, probably something wrong with my system. Anyway, this is a short and visually simple brick\\marble temple map with arena\\trap oriented gameplay. Some fights are trivial, others require decent maneuvering skills. The level feels very disjointed, just rooms connected by doors, but I thought it was kinda fun to play. The new story screen is appreciated too.

I not-horrible type of map that works decently enough as a first release. The architecture is predictable plain and with noticeable errors at certain points (DOORTRAK pegging issues, flat mismatches), but these are mostly forgivable. Gameplay is solid, albeit one-note. The stealth-cacos aren't really necessary, the fights all of the same flavor and variety, but the cybie battle was a decent enough moment. All in all, it's worth a playthrough if you're bored, but nothing you'll remember the next day. 3/5

      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.
