New Wad - Attack on IO


Recommended Posts

Forget what I said about the Quake part. I was going through the Ultimate Doom maps, and Doom 2 maps. I would say Attack on IO is more similar to Ultimate Doom. The gameplay in Attack on IO was very familiar to me, and my first impression was Quake. Then I compared Quake to Doom, and then realized Quake has faster moving enemies. Comparing a Doom mod to Quake would not make much sense. Attack on IO is based on Ultimate Doom with more enemies, uses the Doom 2 wad, and has different visuals. The main difference between Ultimate Doom, and Attack on IO would be the visuals. Attack on IO has much better graphics, because of the Doom Engine source port.

I finished this recently on easy (I'm not a strong player :D ), and had immense fun. I really liked the tight maps, and a lot of it really demands you keep moving or get destroyed. Great visuals, I loved the big open blood/flesh canyon room, brilliant stuff. I'm trying to get some friends to buy doom just to play out this map, enjoyed it that much.

 

I really like you have it reset weapons each level, you can really control the skill. Cool use of traps, it felt very video-gamey, kept the momentum.

 

I'm a new / old map maker, want to incorporate some of this vibe into a map set I want to make.

These maps are gorgeous, with some greatly designed combat encounters!

I hop in blind at HMP while I muse about difficulty levels, and will upload a map a day for the next week.

@Pistoolkip I agree about the difficulty levels. UV should be considered an extra hard+ mode, which is how I usually treat it, but moreso in my later work. It maybe because of youtube trends that UV has become the standard - but I don't know really.
