Make Your Own Doom Cheat Code

[DSC]

I'll start with the following one:

IDGAF- gives you berserk but instead of a fist you attack by flipping the bird. Instantly kills and gibs any enemy. Oh, and it also makes you invulnerable.

[Drum]

IDHELF - Increases max health and armor both to 500%

[Stupid Bunny]

I’d make a cheat that immediately applies a different random action to every sector in the map and continues to do so every 5 seconds until the player dies or escapes the level somehow. And also every 5 seconds a random thing in the map turns into an archvile

[CravenCoyote]

Someone in an AOL chat room in the mid 90's insisted there was a cheat code to activate "Breakfast Mode". He gave us a ridiculously long cheat code, starting with id, and of course I tried it.

 

It didn't work so I just assumed I'd written it down incorrectly and I always wondered what "Breakfast Mode" might include.

 

Ahh, to be young again...

IDENDIT: ends the map naturally by pulling up the tally screen. I can't stress how often I'd use this over IDCLEV to get to the next map.

 

Edit: another one I just thought of that'd be infinitely useful: IDSTRIP. It resets the play down to 50 bullets, 100 health, etc (basically like they started a new game). DSDA is the only source port I know of that has an actual pistol-start feature and I remember seeing on guy mocked for asking if there was a mod for automatic pistol-starts because "what? are you too lazy to type IDCLEV?" The problem with that is if I pistol-start a megawad, it won't tell me the running tally of how long I've played each map because warping just acts like it's a new game.

For a cheat called IDGAF, that's a lot of fucks given.

So don't strafe left too often or you're fucked. Awesome.

I'd prefer if typing it would instead make your punch do that anytime you swing afterwards since it'd be annoying to keep typing it over and over again. I'd imagine co-op would be way more fun with this.

[Guff dotD]

IDJUMP - Whenever you press the use key and don't interact with anything (i.e. no walls around you) you jump instead and it plays the Revenant arm-swing noise when jumping.

[Fonze]

IDBUN - heretic had playable chickens, rott had doges... I think doom is missing out on a quintessential part of retro shooters 🥰🐇

Yeah, maybe I didn't think this one through... Although, that sounds like something the Casali's would've done in Plutonia if they had the chance!

[aRottenKomquat]

IDMASHUP: Randomly selects two maps from the currently-loaded WAD, chops them into 2 - 6 pieces each, and mashes them together into one big level. Playability not guaranteed.

IDTALLY - Shows on either the Automap or your HUD the amount of enemies you killed versus total to kill, all items collected so far and secrets found so far (and maybe total playtime).
