Has anyone claimed E3M4+MAP23? If not then I'll take it.

EDIT: I checked the OP again, looks like the project is full.

we got a few slots left though

@SpaceCat_2001 can you make a custom skybox for deimos/city levels and hell levels?

I think you should edit the buildings from doom 2 city level skybox to the episode 2 deimos mountains (so the mountains look like they are behind the city, also keep the red sky

 

and the doom 2 hell mountains to the doom episode 3 mountains

Doomguy gets confabulation. Thus we are making prequel to The Thing You Can't Defeat

what if the plot was where the UAC transfered the bases from the moons onto earth instead of being on mars and they perform the teleportation bullshit and demons appear

 

and deep into the heart of doomguy's home town, a portal to hell emerged and transfered hell onto earth

 

also what is a confabulation

Confabulation is when person's memories merge, blur and corrupt; it's usually a byproduct of braindamage

That would be a great title.

I am a writer of sorts. Nothing published but fairly confident in my writing skills.

I remembered something, in the Ultimate Doom in name only megawad, intermissions map names were accompanied with names of map creators beneath them, we could make something similar.

Doomguy was fighting the icon of sin, but before getting his unrendered ass kicked, he opens a portal sending "our hero" to the future, a future where he is the ruler of earth.

I don't know if the icon of sin has a power similar to this canonically, nor do i care, and any similarities with Samurai Jack's plot is mere coincidence.

Long ago in the lands of Texas, I, Icon of Sin

The world warping master of darkness, unleashed an unspeakable evil.

But a foolish marine warrior, wielding a supershotgun, stepped forth to oppose me

Before the final blow was blasted i tore open portal in time and tossed him into the future, where my Hell is Revealed©. 

Now the fool seeks a way to return to the 1994 and undo the future that is DooMed!

groovy, but some complaints are that there is too much shotgun shells, which makes it a ssg fest, so i reccomend to remove some so the demons gotta chance.

other than that this is really cool!

No, it's not. I legitimately love Slough of Despair, it's one of my favorite maps in commercial Doom.

this is very fun and looks great, but you seriously didnt use special feature of map7? And i thought we cant put monsters that are not present in both maps

That's a really interesting opinion and one I haven't heard very often. Would you mind explaining? Also, how do you plan to implement the hand into all of this?

@Logamuffin is clearly Okuyasu in disguise, of course he will take map that features Za Hando

Spoiler

And you can make the map in the form of this hand for extra funnies
