Just yesterday I was thinking about DBP63 and lo and behold, it drops! Thank you!

 

Edit: Back with a few thoughts after finishing the first five maps. Given the extended development cycle I expected some huge project like Zeppelin Armada, but instead of being disappointed, I was actually quite pleasantly surprised by how "back to basics" it is. I would almost call it conservative - it feels very straightforward and old school, perhaps a bit reductionist. Sometimes the combat is rudimentary and for me the first three maps are quite easy on UV, but I was glad to see that things get more interesting and more challenging with MAP04, like that final room with the hell nobles, cacos, and mancubi. I can praise three aspects without reservations: the clarity of the design, the aesthetics, and the music. I haven't encountered any issues, managed to max everything so far including items. Thank you for that, the extra time definitely resulted in better quality control upon release. Will post more as I blast my way through.

 

Edit 2: Found a little problem in MAP07 - there are two computer area maps and you can't pick up both of them so 100% items is impossible. I suggest removing one of them. Screenshots attached with the one I couldn't get.

Well I know what Im doing today

 

Done and done. Thank you all, that gave me everything I want out of a DBP. A mornings worth of interesting levels to run through, some challanging levels to run around and all of them gorgeous. 😃

Took me a little more than an hour to finish it so yeah, you can literally begin and end today. Very enjoyable. It becomes...electrifying in the second half, excuse the pun.

Thanks for bringing colors back to DBPs. The latest entries' monochromatic filters were starting to be a little bit monotonous.

That's fair, but there is also the option of playing with a custom palette of your liking on top of the ones already provided by DBPs. Check out Nihal's thread in Mods & Resources here, or Cryonaut's compendium of palettes on moddb:

Or you could go creative in SLADE and experiment with your own.

Great runs through these maps. You always make it look easy.

I have played these, and they are challenging.  You are right, map 8 is brutal on the first couple of runs.

Fun Mapset.  Well done maps. Cool runs.

First, congrats on the release of another DBP project.

 

I just finished the wad and lots of fun were had. Very good stuff for a quick blast. My highlights are maps 07 and 08 with very fun and spicy fights.

 

Thank you all the mappers involved in this amazing project!
