Oblivious to Evil, A limit-removing E4M1 replacement (-complevel 3) (now on idgames)

[Pseudonaut]

Oblivious to Evil is a short homage to Hell Beneath. It occupies slot E4M1 and was tested in DSDA-Doom -cl3 and Crispy Doom. Difficulty settings are fully implemented, and UV is not for the faint of heart.

E4M1 is probably my favorite map ever from the original, so this is quite the welcomed addition. Had fun with it. Some of the visuals are a little too dry and the teleport spam of imps is a little too much IMO, but overall, as a little homage, I liked it!

A terrific little homage with a deadly new twist! American McGee would be proud of your cruelty, mate. ;^)

Very fun little map, really liked it, here is fda with saves on UV - oblivevil-fda-01m.zip . You would need a recently released dsda-doom 0.26.0 to play it back.

Had to reload to earlier save after getting exit the first time because I was left with 1hp and couldn't find a way to reliably 2-shot cybers without taking splash. That geometry is sure awkward for 2-shotting, I think I found more or less reasonable spot to do that in the end, but idk maybe there are better places.

Like the map, but not a fan of the Cyberdemon (which I guess is why the BFG secret was there and likely a gotcha for UV), I'd say the map is pretty tight. Well done, it definitely captured the feel of E4M1 (although too many health pickups for a true homage).

The wad is now on idgames, and the OP has been updated.

I liked it, but I didn't really feel like killing the cyberdemons :P The vibe was good and I liked the height being a bigger factor than the original.

ohhhh this gave me major e4m1 vibes but the fucking cyberdemon that was just unneeded

[Clippy]

well this was a wacky take lol
