Devil Hunting In Twilight - one level WAD set in a dimly lit forest

[lubba127]

After hearing rumours of devilish monsters murdering hikers in your coniferous U.S county, you dawn your ill-fitting tech armor, draw your sidearm and face the treeline, hoping to catch the killer creatures of the night.

 

Progressive difficulty, plenty of ambushes, jumping and crouching disabled, and freelook is allowed but not preferred (to each their own).

sky3 ruining my fun again

Really enjoyable experience, the atmosphere is stellar and the fights were exciting but still manageable. Had to run in GZDoom since there was a missing SKY3 texture, apparently? Probably had to do with the TEXTURE1 and PNAMES lumps not including the default textures.

Oh for goodness sake. I always forget about that when editing the texture lumps. Truthfully I hadn't booted the game up in prboom+ in the final stage of development (which I assume you were using) so this went completely unchecked. I will get this fixed by the end of the day as I have to go to work in an hour. Thank you for pointing this out.

 

And also thank you so much for the praise in spite of that error, I'm glad you enjoyed it :D

Keeeeewl map. I hope you'll forgive me going straight for the head of it all at the end. But damn, that was quite something! Although perhaps the tower stair fight is harder for people that know what they're doing.

Oh this looks like my kind of Jam~!! I'll have to give this a look later~!

Here's my first time playthrough with saves. The stairs fight is indeed the hardest in the map. At 15:35 into the video there's a missing lower texture that I noticed. A good map, I enjoyed it.

Excellent atmospheric map, pls make more!!
I had to play in Crispy because of the missing SKY3, was going to mention fixing it but looks like you're already onto it but had just forgotten.

my apologies, I've been rather busy these past few days. It should run in prboom+ now. It does for me at least.
