About This File

My first finished Doom 2 level. Attempted to follow the design principles outlined by John Romero for Doom E1. I additionally tried to design a level that would be a good introduction of the game mechanically and visually for someone completely new to the game.

The map provide good action, gameplay is good.

Maybe the map itself lack of something like more details and polish in my opinion. I will not count it since it is a first map from the author, so 4/5. :)

This is a terrific little map with fun combat and cool secrets. It very much feels like a more compact and frenetic version of E1M1. I've even been practicing speedrunning on it too, which has been fun.

This could ascend to Cacoward quality with a simple copy/paste clone job -- then it'd be Double Impact. *booed off stage* 

 

It's an adequate "my first map." You chew up lumps of fodder with weaker weapons in small rooms with sharp directional lighting for about 2 minutes. One of the secrets was cool. Satisfying enough.

Definitely plays a lot like E1M1. Not a bad quick play at all. I like these short-n-sweet ones!

Feels very Doom 1-nish, like a twisted version of E1M1. Simple, short, straight-forward, but not bad. Try making something longer and with more open layout.

      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.
