Death Bear Posted January 28, 2023 (edited) Hell Yeah! celebrates the Pineapple Under the Sea Speedmapping Series’ Second Anniversary by sharing 61+ 1-Hour creations by a number of mappers in the largest PUSS wad to date! Co-led by myself and @BluePineapple72, we present to you a compilation of work from the largest group of unique mappers we’ve seen thus far participating in PUSS, with over 61 submissions from 31 mappers! Due to popular request, here is the "official" release thread. These were all made in 1-hour, more or less, and feature the application of several themes and gimmicks inspired by our work in PUSS Series II (Trick and Tear 2, TH1RT3EN, 12 More Days of Doommas, Mysterious Mayan Madness, Pac-Man Doom, Pandemonium Speed Weeks, Revenge of the Speeddemons, & Dead Mappers Tell No Tales) as well as Skulltiverse, Solar Struggle, and Musical Mapping. Hell Yeah! kicks off PUSS Series III, which runs from September 2022 through August 2023, and is full of all kinds of goofiness, inside jokes, aggressive hand cleaning, and project foreshadowing alongside a wonderful display of 1-hour speedmapping! We had a lot of fun with this, and we hope you do, too. These Maps are done in Boom Format for cl-9 play; were tested in PRBOOM+, DSDA-DOOM, and GZDOOM; and because of the sheer volume of submissions, we have included a MAPINFO/ UMAPINFO. Thank you to all our "outside" playtesters: @Clippy & @Biodegradable ! As always, thank you to all the event staff who contributed their time and efforts to making this quite a birthday extravaganza! And guess what mappers, I didn't forget you. Download: idgames link Here is your extended RC1 Maplist with Screenies: MAP01 Spoiler Get to the escape pod and get in the game! You have no chance to survive make your time! All your maps are belong to us! HuzzaH! Spoiler MAP02 – MAP12 Spoiler I’d say we started off easy with the first ten maps…but not really. Sounds pretty on brand for us. Heich claims the first submission in both PUSS I and now PUSS XX! They love to name their speedmaps in reference to their size. Still loads of fun! Raid the shoreline and show the monsters your big guns! Spoiler Complete with a jungle gym and seesaw. Man with a Gun is NOT playing around with this one. Time to get up and show the demons your favorite toys. It’s nerf or nothing! Spoiler Philnemba makes their PUSS debut with this punchy number. Get furious and get to brawlin’ in this fun map inspired by the classic game! Spoiler HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO US! You ever wanted to know what it feels like to be the candle on top of the cake? Peccatum ensures an unforgettable experience doing exactly that! Spoiler Myolden shows off his signature style while burning you in a way that Kelso would approve of. There is no original recipe…only extra crispy. I played badly for three hours to take on these 13 fools, so hopefully you fare better than I had. “Hey! BluePineapple here! Just wanted to extend Bear’s paragraph to mention that I beat MAP06 on my first try! No. I will not prove it.” I'm sure you did. Tryhard. Spoiler Muumi regales us with a map recreated from the memory of his very first map from the 90s. Don’t repress this one! Spoiler Speaking of memories, can you believe that this is our SECOND anniversary? Muumi remakes the first PUSS map ever, “Love Station” by Heich, in a very hellish aesthetic. I think you’ll love it. Spoiler Finniks13 returns to PUSS with a beach map, which…honestly…yeah. It’s pretty peaceful. And relaxing. Enjoy a drink…put your feet up…THEN PICK UP THAT GUN AND GET TO WORK! Spoiler Oh, hi, Mark! Memeboi makes their PUSS debut, and what a START(AN) it is! Enjoy this interesting concept map with a plot twist at the end! Spoiler Peccatum says that this title stands for “Gospel of Fire”. Speaking of fire, you might want to come in hot on this one. Enjoy your bloody ascent…and good luck. You may need it. Spoiler WOAH! I love Crash Bandicoot! Like, I LOVE it. So does BluePineapple72. So, to partake in this lovely platforming challenge to the soundtrack of one of my favorite games was pretty fun! If you’re one of those that remembers Crash as being particularly difficult in some places, prepare yourself. There’s no slide jump here. Welcome Ravendesk to the PUSS series! Spoiler MAP13 – MAP23 Spoiler We’ve had a lot of mappers new to our series in this wad. This section shows us that, and DAMN, can they hang! Oh, look. My first map in this wad. It’s short. It’s sweet. It has XIII vibes. Grab that pump. Spoiler You’ve heard of Dead Simple, right? No? Cool. Buckle up. Spoiler So, if you’re familiar with PUSSXXII, which at this point was already something we were planning…that’s what inspired this. Cold. Dark. Also, inspired by Jimmy track…who is probably the one artist PUSS uses most when it comes to tracks. Raise a glass to this legend. Now go grind some ghosts. Spoiler CyberosLeopard returns to PUSS in this map undoubtedly inspired by THE first speedmap. It’s gonna get messy…make sure to bring your hot soapy water to clean up. Spoiler Why, thank you kind, sir…I do believe that my collection is the best of all collections…especially when you doth decide to partake in fisticuffs! Welcome Savarin with their PUSS debut! Spoiler Lullaby creator and long-time PUSS veteran and contributor Danlex punishes us in another Underhalls-inspired map that might make you jump on the deck and flop like a fish (which is better than getting blown up by a cyber or crushed by an angry ceiling). I’ll let you decide how you want to spend your night…I’m not your dad. Spoiler The name says it. Be careful in there…don’t get squished. Or burned. Or blown up. Fight hard in Luleta’s PUSS debut. Spoiler Welcome MFG38 to PUSS with a slicey-dicey bone zone that might be more than you bargained for! Spoiler You know, I used to live in Lubbock (where Buddy Holly is from). You can’t escape his influence. Just like I had a difficult time escaping this dirty Spider Queen’s gun. Have fun and get an inhaler if you start wheezing. Spoiler A foreboding techbase…a demonic presence…one man, standing alone against the darkness. DFF joins PUSS with this atmospheric map that’ll leave you knee deep in…something? Spoiler In what might be one of the more unique maps in the set, for sure, 2022 Cacoward Promising Newcomer Thelokk joins us for this bloody little adventure. Spoiler MAP24 – MAP34 Spoiler This section showcases some work by several of the mappers who made multiple contributions to this wad, on their first PUSS outing! We love to see it! Still wheezing? Good. Grab a mask and go to the wedding anyway. What’s the worst that could happen? Spoiler Ancient Aliens inspired me to keep mapping, and to fall in love with aliens all over again. But I don’t think that’s what this legend was referring to. I’m not saying it was aliens, but it was aliens. Pick up your shotgun, Waltuh. Spoiler Based on the iconic end to Knee Deep in the Dead, Mememind gives us a fight against the bruiser brothers…with an upgraded arsenal to deal with Doom 2’s roster. Spoiler The discussion goes that Lost Souls did not count toward the 13-monster gimmick. Here, it is utilized as such. Spoiler Not sure if this is a reference to my FAVORITE track by MegaSphere, or if it’s something else. But I almost had a stroke with this map. Jumpscares and traps got me. Prepare yourself. Spoiler Suck the marrow out of life! Kill your way into the depths of base with ALL the bones. [Insert inappropriate joke here]. Welcome Lineman to the PUSS series. Spoiler So, I said ‘Not your pants! The gun!’ I don’t really care if you don’t wear pants, but you’re gonna need a gun or two for this one. Spoiler Welcome Silhouette 03 to PUSS with a pair of maps that lean heavily into appearances by our boney friends. If that’s not a party (foul), I don’t know what is! Spoiler I love libraries. Reading. Quiet. Musty smells. MMHMM. Now fill it with demons, and you’ve got quite an educational experience. Open up the hollowed book, pull out your handgun, and show them the true meaning of violence. Spoiler In another PUSS I remake, Muumi reminds us what happens when the Nates Lever…deadlines get pushed, dev hell happens, and we find an RC1 released a quarter late. My bad, everyone. I’m just going to point my finger at Blue and blame him. In the meantime, enjoy one of Muumi’s phenomenal skies! Spoiler Unfortunately, the original submission for NANOMAN by PUSS vet Walter was lost, due to an unfortunate mishap on his part. NANOMAN rests now in the annals of lost PUSS maps. As we grieve its loss, play NANOMAN 2.0, the remake. I REMEMBER THE NANOMAN!!!! Spoiler MAP35 – MAP45 Spoiler Hell yeah! Here we go again! Not to be confused with Goat Simulator. It would behoove you, though, to be careful around the corners. Spoiler Welcome TheV1perK1ller to the PUSS Series with this seriously awesome attack on a demon infested base. Spoiler See what I mean? Heich likes to emphasize the smallness of some of these speedmaps. Though I think that’s cool: it knows exactly what it is. Don’t expect an easy time clearing this one out, though. It’s DYNAMITE! Spoiler Hello, there. Don’t be guppy. Be the big spoon fish and don’t get trout-slapped by the demons here. Spoiler Savarin returns for a fun platforming map that gives you only what you need to complete it. Go fast, hit buttons, and don’t trip over your bootlaces. Spoiler 9 out of 10 dentists surveyed recommend this map. Also, that toothpaste? It’s Aquafresh! Hell yeah! Clean teeth! Spoiler They’re coming. And they’re hungry. Spoiler I just don’t want to imagine this smell… Spoiler The fires rise as the name says it all. In this fiery pit of death, only your willpower (and some shells) will save you! Spoiler Embrace the piratey tune, and get your jack sparrow on, or end up in davy jones’ locker. Spoiler The name says it saul. One after Magna Carta! Spoiler MAP46 – MAP56 Spoiler If you ever suspected I don’t like mapping, this section says otherwise. But despite monopolizing these 10 maps, there is some other great stuff in here! What some of these mappers can do in an hour is awesome. An extra-potent remake of E1M2, complete with my favorite doom 1 track. I’d give you a hand, but half the fun is doing it yourself. Spoiler Hell CAN be mean. And usually is…especially in the hands of our peg legged friend, who was one of our first contributors to the PUSS series! Spoiler The first of several maps I made in a self-indulgent mapping spree one day. Let’s raise the blood of the pool to critical capacity. Spoiler More jokes about bones. Spoiler Your palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy. There’s vomit on your sweater already…but that’s not Mom’s Spaghetti. Spoiler You are huge! Spoiler That means you have huge guts! Spoiler As you guessed, there are Archies involved. Stay frosty. Spoiler This map is beatable. Just not be me. It technically breaks the hard limit of enemies, but I was lazy here…I MEAN, I MADE AN EXECUTIVE DECISION HERE! I’M A PROFESSIONAL! Spoiler In case you were interested in doing a bit more of some light reading, look no further! (You might regret it though.) Spoiler Everyday I’m Shufflin’. Just another little loopy techbase for shooting demons. Sorry-not-sorry for party rockin’, folks. Spoiler MAP57 – MAP61 Spoiler And we've made it to the end! Hell yeah! You tired of playing PUSS remakes of Underhalls, yet? TOO FUCKING BAD!!! Muumi creates a great looking, scaled down MAP02…but doesn’t pull any punches. I’m too smoll to die! Spoiler The town to end all towns…in this wad. It’s a knockdown-dragout to the end, so let’s GET2It! Spoiler See what I did there? Of course, you did, because you love Plutonia as much as I do, which is very much. Now take a chill pill and play this scaled down version of MAP32. You’ll thank me later. Spoiler Muumi recreated BluePineapple’s first map from PUSS I, so it’s only fitting Blue returns the favor. In what he considers his favorite map from 12 Days of Doommas, “The Korvatunturi Massacre”, Blue takes us on a Doommas journey inspired by PUSS history, and apparently some inside joke about 400 – naw…that can’t be right. Can it? Spoiler Have you enjoyed all the memes and inside jokes? Well, we’re not done yet. Blue gives us a Quick N Dirty credits map referencing PUSS I MAP01…also, there may be some chicanery involved in your arrival. Best of luck, and thanks for playing! Spoiler Spoiler A SECRET IS REVEALED! What's a PUSS wad without secret maps!? Nothing says Doommas spirit like slaughtering demons in the snow. (MAP62, Enter from MAP15) Spoiler Do not dareth to hassle me, brethren! (MAP63, Enter from secret exit in MAP62) Spoiler Here’s your TLDR maplist.

Walter confetti Posted January 28, 2023 11 minutes ago, Death Bear said: Ancient Aliens inspired me to keep mapping, and to fall in love with aliens all over again. But I don’t think that’s what this legend was referring to. No, it's actually referencing that Ancient Aliens! Never saw the history channel documentary where this meme thing born. Also the room in the screenshot is inspired by a corridor section in MAP09 (the north-west area). 2 Quote Share this post Link to post

Thanks again for your continued contributions to PUSS, Walter! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post
