DCG Retrowave Posted October 15, 2020 (edited) "When the Icon of Sin was slain and Hell was obliterated by the heroic space marine, the majority of Hell's residents were wiped out in the process. Some hellspawn remained, but they appeared to be completely harmless. As the humans rebuilt Earth, the (mostly) friendly hellspawn adapted to the lifestyle of the Earthlings and established their own civilization among mankind. Many people thought the demons were rather adorable now that they were peaceful creatures. With most of the world's animal population being lost during the "Hell on Earth" invasion, the hellish monsters seemed like the perfect solution for the humans' severe lack of animal companionship. The demons enjoyed being adopted as "pets" and after a few months, even the skeptics couldn't resist inviting the demons into their homes." "During the first few months back on Earth, Doomguy was still grieving the loss of his beloved pet rabbit, Daisy. Now that some time has passed, Doomguy feels like he's ready to adopt a new pet. Perhaps the local pet store has one of those cute Pain Elementals..." "Doomguy's Funny Pet: A Happy DOOM Adventure by DCG Retrowave" is a work-in-progress DOOM II mod that is fully vanilla-compatible. I started making this on October 7th and so far three maps are complete. Your job as a DOOMER pet parent is to take good care of "Funny" the Pain Elemental and keep him safe. Funny is required to exit each map (he's the only demon who can access the exit rooms) so make sure he doesn't get killed by any mean monsters! Download "Doomguy's Funny Pet" today! petdemo.zip DOOM happiness is a happy Pain Elemental! Happy first mission! Hello there buddy :D Welcome home, Funny! Thank you for opening the exit door for me! Hungry Pain Elemental :D The food court has some happy visitors :) I see a food item :O Yum yum sauce :D It's Funny's first day at school :) Nice little boy :D Principal Arch-vile seems nice :) Principal Arch-vile is having a word with these misbehaving students :O You must be Funny's math teacher! Take a seat at your desk and I'll come back to pick you up this afternoon, Funny! :) petdemo.zip Edited November 4, 2020 by DCG Retrowave Demo Release now available! 35 Quote Share this post Link to post

Also, the school maps look really interesting, a question: Can Funny fight back? Thanks! Funny is unable to fight back in this WAD. In "Harmless Pain Elementals?" from last month, I had them spawn more Pain Elementals, but only when attacked first. Of course, a Pain Elemental as a Lost Soul replacement meant that they weren't really attacking the player. Instead, they're just summoning some friends :D. In this WAD, Funny has no attack at all. His FaceTarget function just makes him stare at you for 10 game ticks and then he'll return to Chase. On 10/17/2020 at 1:36 AM, elend said: Wow that looks great and very funny! Funny indeed!

I was hoping to have the first part of the WAD (maps 1 to 7) completed so I could release what I'll be calling the shareware release, but that'll have to wait until sometime in November. The basis for maps 4 to 7 do exist, but the actual missions are not implemented yet. The demo I'll be releasing today is still the first three maps that were showcased in the video, but they're more complete now (for example, the cafeteria in the school isn't just a big room with over 100 Pain Elementals now :D) Get ready to adopt Funny! 4 Quote Share this post Link to post
DCG Retrowave Posted November 4, 2020 (edited) The first demo release is here! This WAD features the first three maps of "Doomguy's Funny Pet." I haven't added a MAPINFO yet, so please enable "Doom (Strict)" compatibility settings manually if you're using a ZDoom-based source port. Also, because this WAD has some custom sprites, it won't work in vanilla unless you manually remove them from this WAD and place them in a backup of DOOM2.WAD. There are utilities that can do this automatically and I'll be including one in the next release for your vanilla DOOMING convenience :D petdemo.zip Edited November 4, 2020 by DCG Retrowave 4 Quote Share this post Link to post

brick Posted February 25, 2022 I guess thanks for the bump since it allowed me to discover this wad. This is absolutely adorable and puts a whole new emphasis on Doomcute. Unfortunately I couldn't get very far, the collision detection (at least in GZDoom) makes the PEt go a little too high while entering the house and it then becomes impossible for him to go into the hallway leading to the bedroom. It's a really cute idea though. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post

Perhaps I'll revisit it at some point, but my primary focus nowadays is kick-starting my music career. I do plan on finishing my main DOOM project later this year, which is DOOM 87: The Lost World! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post
