Overgrowth [MBF21]

[arrotive]

Yo fellas, you might know me, you probably don't, but that's not important. What IS important is that I've got a map, that I've made just for all of you lovely folks to play, yes YOU. But enough of me running my mouth, anyways, here's the map!

 

Compatibility: MBF21 (duh)

For advanced ports (cough, cough, GZDoom): No jumping and or crouching, freelook is fine though!

IWAD: Doom 2

Map: MAP01

Buildtime: ~10 days (please end me)

Playtime: 15-20 minutes

Now.....the long part, the Credits:

 

SMG Sprite: Doom Delta

Minigun Sprite: Skulltag

Textures: OTEX by Ukiro, and Grass Midtex ripped from Valiant by Skillsaw.

Midi: Accelerator by AD_79, Waiting Room by AD_79, and Intermission is a random conversion of "I wanna be like you" from the Jungle Book I found.

Pistol/Chaingun sounds are ripped from Doom Delta.

Shell Sprites from Ray Mohawk 2 by Doomkid

Tree Sprites are automatically generated by DOOMTREE

Sky from Mek's Box O' Skies

TITLEPIC is the Quake 3 Render of Doomguy

DECOHACK to make the Dehacked, UDB to make the map.

@Paf for fixing the sky issues in this damn wad and playtesting,

And finally, all the lovely folks at The Entryway ( https://discord.gg/Ascc59b ) for playtesting, giving advice, and generally just being grand ol' people to hang around!

That was a good map! I guess the MBF21 was mainly used to speed up the basic weapons, but honestly, all to the good! The initial area's tough to break out of, but the spice of Arch-viles was really nice and the final bits were a good ending!

Nice map. Here is fda with saves: overgrowth-fda-00003.zip. You would need dsda-doom 0.25.6 to play it back.

I have a thing for maps that force you to use a single shotgun, but do it well (which is rare), and I think it worked out nicely in the first half of the map. Visuals are also pretty.

 

Fda will give you more feedback than any text, but a few things you might want to consider:

1. Maybe a teleporter back after picking up the red key, so you don't need to walk back all the way.

2. Lava area with revs can use a few pillars imo, otherwise there is not much space to break the homing missiles and it kinda promoted campy gameplay.

3. I ran out of ammo in the second half of the map, but I admittedly wasn't careful enough with my ammo usage. If that's what you intended, alright then.

 

Also as a minor note it is usually a good practice to post .zip archives instead of .rar archives.
