|  "Doom Wad Idea"
, posted Sat 9 Jun 15:20  
It might be interesting to make a wad that is a shifting labrynth. You create a maze that constantly shifts based on where you go. As you walk through the labrynth, you will be walking over linedefs that trigger some doors to close and new ones to open, changing the layout of the maze. The maze will be constantly shifting, revealing new areas and rooms. Your objective will be to find 3 (or 6) keys to complete the map.... sorta like finding the 8 oracle dudes in Commander Keen, episode 4: Secret of the Oracle ;). Or you would have to find switches which would open up new areas in the maze that would not be revealed by the shifting maze.

It is so precious and philanthropic to be a sedge and falcon burrower and scale the mountain walls by way of moonlight.
The warning that I received... you may take it with however many grains of salt you wish -- that the brown acid that is circulating around this is not specifically too good. Uhh... it's suggested that you do stay away from that. Of course it's your own trip so be my guest... but uh please be advised that there is a warning around that one ok?
Are we having fun yet?

If you're aiming for a "flat" laberynth then just play some Fortress of Dr. Radiaki and you'll see how HORRIBLE that could be.

Only if it was really well done. I would like it to have 3d floors, lots of lifts and effects, and a lot of wide open rooms with uneven floors(lots of ledges), bridges, and multiple exits/entrances. A level like that with simply tons of hallways to run through with a lot of enemies would suck majorly.

I might just be saying that to get you to read my work. But I'm probably not so you should read it. It's quite good. Unless you can't read in which case you'd probably miss out on something really moving inspiring or humorous."

Map 9? of Plutonia woulda been cool with a shifting maze. The map with all the arch viles.

Apparently some of the upcoming Skull Tag maps have something like this, although in multiplayer, using a technique devised by Michael Niggel.

Like "Hunted" on Plutonia. I think I'll make something like that for Underworld, only using more of the idea of "The Labrynth". (famous picture)
