Synami Posted July 6, 2023 Just finished a casual playthrough, some of these are really impressive for only being speedmaps. The MIDI choices are also really well done, kind of glad I don't have to listen to The Mucus Flow's MIDI for the umpteenth time. I hope you're feeling alright. 2 Share this post Link to post
Zahid Posted July 6, 2023 Played it all are slaughter maps except 5th also without much layout but can be good for mood as you mention 0 Share this post Link to post
NoisyVelvet Posted July 7, 2023 Oh no... not the dum-dum thoughts... here's some fda/second-da's noisy_thoughts_oh_god_the_thoughts_make_the_thoughts_stop.zip 2 Share this post Link to post
TheNoob_Gamer Posted July 7, 2023 A nomo playthrough I recorded by accident. Everyone here was saying that it is good for mood, and I agree. Going through these maps without any fighting at all depict a really moody narrative. Spoiler To make up for said accident, I made some fdas of the first 3 maps too. The nihilistic gameplay really suits the emotional theme (I think?) the set was going for. nyukob_3thoughts_uvfda.zip Spoiler I forgot to turn off a smooth weapons mod while recording MAP01. It was quite an exhausting take, so I decided to just include the mod with the demos themselves. All other files can be viewed independently. I thought my rig was going bonkers in MAP03. Turns out it is meant to be bonkers! 2 Share this post Link to post

Scuba Steve Posted July 7, 2023 What is going on with map06? It brings GZDoom to an absolute standstill. 0 Share this post Link to post

It brings GZDoom to an absolute standstill. that map (and map03) has an "infinite" bfg setup which was a problem for gzdoom i guess. i didn't test the wad with gz, so didn't know it'll cause such lag hehe just fixed that. gonna do a couple of another fixes and then upload a final ver! 1 Share this post Link to post
dashiefrickintyan Posted July 7, 2023 i really want to say thanks to everyone who liked this small wad<3 knowing that my small story might've touched something inside of you warms my heart i made last fixes, and if there's nothing left i'll upload this version to idgames list of fixes: Spoiler - fixed broken signature on all maps - adjusted the floors in red area on map02, now it's easier to get back - fixed door that was upper unpegged lol - added pain sector in yellow area on map02 - maps06 and 03 are not killing gzdoom anymore (but please use dsda and enable software rendering sijfisdjflksjflksjldf) - cleaned dsda console from switch garbage:) - changed some graphics- you still can't save her 3 Share this post Link to post

s4f3s3x Posted July 7, 2023 I'm on MAP02 and Blue Key area is bullsh*t I wasn't expecting this sort of gameplay when I read "focused on atmosphere", but maybe I'll be better going forward. 1 Share this post Link to post
