Thanks, but i think FS3 it's pretty old for a nomination... As well as some other projects like Absolution

[IstoleyourToast]

my friend (foreshadowing?) is making a mod that will be released around April, i dont know much except the title.

i dont know if that is allowed to post a map or mod that is still in making, so i apologize in advance.

so i guess.... +1 DOOM Reimagined?

[Terrcraft]

+Astral Abstraction

[Serathis]

Outpost 13 for newcomer and map. Excellent stuff.

 

 

[jmac]

 

Altitude Adjustment by Dreadopp and Lord_Z is a really solid map with a ton of creativity.

[WorldMachine]

+1 Boomer: Beyond Vanilla

 

Amazing stuff!

Was a runner-up last year

[xScavengerWolfx]

Since i didn't get to do this last year due to working on my solo project. I want to give a +1 to Beta 64 remastered.

 

I am currently doing videos on the Doom 64 mega wad and i am loving it. Dare i say it's better the Doom 64 itself.

 

But yes i'm slapping a +1 for Beta 64 remastered.

Oh oof- sorry-

[princetontiger]

Outpost13 for sure...

[RichardDS90]

Seconding Altitude Adjustment. Feels quite unique and fun. Not to mention some serious attention to detail.

[Plerb]

+1 to The Fireblue Conundrum by @Valhen

 

 

[tom3kb]

I found this on Zdoom forum, looks interesting, have to play more.

New Total Conversion.

I think the judges really should check this one out, play it blind. :)

+ Nakano, a really cool map paying tribute to new sunder and quite impressive for a first released work. It is pretty damn hard but lower skill settings should be coming soon-ish (people play these things on UV anyway, right?)

 

 

Nah, sorry I can't agree with this one. The visuals are very good, if copied very much from Sunder Map 19, but the combat is absolute ass. I like hard combat, Abandon's my favourite WAD for gods sake, but the fights here are just BS for the sake of it. The guy obviously studied at the school of Hell Revealed too, given how grindy some of them are.

It's almost a shame, because the ideas are great. I'd personally move each gun up a room, make the platforming sections a tiny bit more lenient, and provide just a little more cover during the plasma fight (good god, there's nothing there at the moment), then it'd be a killer map whilst still being super tough, just without the BS factor.

This thread isn't for debating whether or not somebody else's mentionation is worthy or not (as long as they follow guidelines in the OP) -- please keep that sort of commentary elsewhere.

+1 I think Daylight District by Squonker team was great! I had a blast (and some pleasant frustrations) while playing. 

 

[bioshockfan90]

+1 Daylight District

 

Punchy newschool goodness

 

+1 cr2.wad (Crumpets 2)

 

One of Ribbiks' most accessible works in a while, very fun to play.

 

+1 Dessert 2

+1 PhoboChromaPhobia (P.C.P)

 

[NecrumWarrior]

Oh yeah, also +1 Dessert 2. Thanks for reminding me @bioshockfan90 lol! 

[stephyesterday]

also +1 cr2.wad. some of ribbik's comfiest work to date, with beautiful architecture and great use of midtex-cute and custom things.

[senpaigru]

+1 Daylight District

+1 Dessert 2

+1 Headless Chicken

[DoomGuy2077]

Dominus Diabolicus. A 1 man megawad and the combat and level design is really tight. 

[T-117]

+1 Dominus Diabolicus.  This one has a classic feel with really good map design and challenging combat.  Definitely a labor of love.

I will assume we can mention friends' projects we playtested.

 

+1 for Strife: Low on Ice - enhanced

 

Strife mapsets are in themselves a rarity, let alone sets that use UDMF to recreate the original's gameplay and RPG elements.

That's cool, I'd seen screenshots of this elsewhere and was looking forward to it coming out. They should do a release thread so more people know it exists!

Unlikely, as lokk has been banned on DW for a while.

 

I was made aware by them, however, that they did make a release thread on ZDoom, for each version, with a little more info.
