About This File

I'm a big fan of H.P. Lovecraft and I had originally meant to do a WAD with a Cthlhu Mythos theme. I was gonna go all out too. I wanted to change all the sounds and the graphics and mabye even screw with the EXE. Fortunately, I woke up and realized I hadn't graduated yet and was in the middle of YAHS (Yet Another Hectic Semester). Most of H.P.'s stories involve ordinary people going about their daily activities until they find themselves face to face with some nameless, cosmic (blasphemous, even) creature that either drags them off to some abyss or eats them right there on the spot. I decided to tone it down but tried to keep a Lovecraft feel to the WAD. Be sure to drop me some e-mail with your opinion of the result or about the WAD in general. Just for the record, I managed to work out all of the bugs that I saw. If you find any others, let me know. Anyway, I hope you enjoy playing it.

Oh, in case you like WAD trivia, the marine's apartment is an exact replica, down to the burners on the stove, of an apartment I rented in Raliegh, N.C. when I was working with IBM. If anyone at the HelpCenter is reading this, then get back on the phones! :)

Beyond Kadath is basically a nicer polish of these maps. This is good in its own right though. **** -sargebaldy

      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.
