I believe this is the second best megawad of the 2000's (after Scythe 2), I don't think anything else from that era has kept me invested throughout the mapset, it offers so much variance, each map is unique and beautiful in its own way, even the 90's shenanigans of some of the newer mappers. Highlights : 4, 5, 6, 9, 10, 12, 15, 18, 19, 21, 25, 28, 29, 32. There are a couple of stinkers in here, as to be expected, but I'm more critical about them because of the poor gameplay, they do look amazing, but that's only a shell of what they are. Lowlights : 2, 14, 22, 23, 24

A furry Doom mod & megawad. You play in a pseudo-third-person perspective of a shirtless red fox, you can see the character attacking in various, entertaining ways, such as scratching its back on a rake, or kissing a bunny while reloading a shotgun. Though I don't understand why the plasma gun is a worse chainsaw. There's a lot of detail in the drawings, they're all cleaned up, coloured and animate nicely, but the inevitable low Doom pixelation at the time makes it look really rough at times, especially with smaller sprites such as the hud mugshots. The maps are mostly extremely small and inoffensive, though a couple of them are big. They look like the author's first attempts at maps, and I gotta say, they're better than my and other's first few maps, there's a ton of experimental level design going on; cities, jungles, ships, trains, theaters (with fully animated little movies) and even a studio with props and a movie shooting going on, it's all very abstract, but I found that as striking design that way. There's a lot of gory drawings and animations that resemble a lot what the author went to work on afterwards, most notable example being the Jack webcomics, which also feature a lot of gory and hellish furry drawings, but more serious. MAP32 (a super secret map) has a super hidden secret that the author wanted to hide, due to its offensive nature, but hey, I see that's all the rage at the rest of the reviews here, but just you know, the rest of this wad is pure carnage. It's a bit of a shame that this was kind of ahead of its time, if ZDoom would've been properly made, this guy could've made the animations more fluid, and used resizing to make the art not as compressed. Overall, I found the mapset to be fun, the gimmicks were decent, maps don't look too shabby and the dehacked weapons were entertaining. There are a couple of unplayable maps if you pistol start, but when the mappack has 32 unique maps, it's not much of a burden. I'm interested in seeing TOONS FOR DOOM 1, even if it's supposedly worse.

I'd say the huge layout makes the gameplay what it is. Feels like GTA.

Great map, loved the dark yet colourful atmosphere and the gameplay.

I agree with Tarnsman, this wad sucks a rather big amount of dicks/cocks/penises/ male genitals. 3/5

Clever sound replacement.

What's the point of this if this just bugs the game even more?
