Unknown - a boom compatible puzzle map

[Danlex]

Unknown is a monsterless boom-compatible puzzle map that I made in less than 2 weeks. I started making this map for a community project but at the end I decided to release it standalone instead (I will make another map for that project eventually).

I only used one custom texture (from ComTex) for the skybox, status bar and titlepic/interpic, everything else is Doom 2 stock textures only.

The "No Trees" version of the wad included in the zip file removes all the sector trees in the map, improving the framerate if needed.

Having fun with this riddle, very interesting puzzle map with a cool atmosphere.

Ive completed 3 puzzles so far, and almost did the Platform one.

Cant figure out the tombstones, same goes for the eye-circles.

Strong "The Given" vibes... including the framerate drops =P

 

Very interesting, I always enjoy seeing monsterless puzzle maps even if I am hopeless at them.

Thank you for another unique masterpiece. I finished the minefield puzzle and started tackling two other ones. No performance problems in Woof.

Managed to find a solution. I think I found an unintended way to decipher the tombstones, intended way is really cool.

The starway structure puzzle and the one that fills with blood were my favourite puzzles.

I can see myself playing a mapset of this style, great stuff!
