About This File

After Two successful...ish endeavors, the MAYhem crew is back for its biggest, most ambitious, and closest to on time campaign yet! (Everything said and done before July!) As usual the maps were made in a one month time span (the month of May). Only this time, to commemorate the cultural zeitgeist of the era, all the maps were confined to a 2048x2048 playing space, so years from now, we can look back on one of the definitve passtimes of the early months of 2014! While severerly dating in execution, we on the MAYhem team hope this levelpack will neverhtheless keep players entertained for a long time to come.

Welcome to MAYhem 2048!

Very good map set for UV players!

I would like to give it 5 but some lame maps prevented that.

This was pretty good. Great in many parts, but some random slaughter-ish parts threw off the balance and let it down a bit. Still very fun to play though. 4 stars. -TRRobin.

Has a couple of bad levels sure, but generally the stars algined for this one. Some maps in here I'd call their respective author's best work.

Excellent ~26 maps, with latter maps and maps >=33 sucking very bad. Nevertheless, it deserves 5 stars. For the most part you don't even feel this is based around 2048 gimmick. These feel like normal, albeit short levels. You can beat this WAD in one sitting.

2048 seems to work better than 1024, IMO. Would like to see more projects of this size. A couple of meh maps, but mostly good stuff here.

it's like Claustrophobia 1024 except with just a little more space, as well as leniency in early levels. by MAP21 and on it starts to get more cheap and annoying than levels before it(dickish cyber placements on MAP23 and MAP28!). I will admit that Corsair's map was the best one though. don't play if you want something traditional.

Absolutely fantastic work from some of the authors here; there's some clever ways of saving space throughout. Being a "1024-like" you're going to see some repetition and iffy ideas, but given the restrictions I think everyone did an excellent job. A stellar mapset if you're not afraid of being beleaguered from cramped & difficult gameplay now and then.

I understand that nowadays slaughtermaps are popular but come on, I don't feel the need to die like 10 times in same spot just because of a stupid monster trap, though I must blame AEOD for throwing hard monsters at me. The maps that killed me the most were 24 and 29, which were really frustrating and unfair IMO. I died 37 times in whole wad (yes I counted them). Although there were maps that were easy and fun, most of them were too hard for my liking. Sorry. 2/5

As far as community projects go, this was one of the more sucessful in terms of execution. 2048 is definitely a better limit than 1024, allowing some freedom while still forcing creative ways around it. except for that fucking marcaek guy's map this would be 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.
