ARCADE ( A TributE To ArcadE GameS )

All 30 levels are just the same map over and over again with slight modifications to the monster placement and monster types. This is essentially a dollar store discount bootleg low-budget version of any Doom II MegaWAD.

What the hell is this crap?

Hmm... not too bad idea, but the levels can be finished by quickly running to the exit in a few seconds, so there is no gamepay. 1* for the idea, 0 for the implementation.

'One open room' is not 'thirty levels of carnage'.

Not bad. Play it with AEOD, it's fun with it. Trust me. Even though without AEOD it's still not bad, all levels have same design (-1). Good job with different monsters on each level. (+1) Also, the music is good but get some more next time (+1). Now, go ahead if you wanna make a sequel. 4 stars - Killer11223346 (Now known as TehRandomKill)

Great WAD! =P Question: Why were there two maps in a row with no monsters?

I've seen worse than this. Then again, I've seen better maps that have this kind of gameplay.

rather unpossible to finish w/o cheating... the first two maps were fun the others are distusting

Maybe fun... the first ten minutes. Unremarkable

Yes, I get that the point is to shoot things. That is not fun when the fight is boiled down to circle-strafing around a horde in the same map thirty-two times. Vomit.

Simple. Not a bad attempt. Level 30 was ridiculously hard without cheating.

I hate it.

I am a big fan of old arcade games like Space Harrier and Smash TV, this does it for me... would be better though if you HAD to kill all the bad guys on each level before moving on rather than just being able to leg-it to the exit, it is too easy.

No words for this, the biggest complaint is that there's TWO FUCKING MUSIC TRACKS IN THIS WAD.

Piss poor and boring as hell.

This WAD isn't terrible but the rooms could have been different for every level for a better challenge. I like how you made up for it by sort of doing a 1monster type of thing for every level though. Level 30 is impossible to get through without dying at least ten times in my opinion. It is the kind of wad that should be used with RGA 2 or RGA 3. - General Mike

i wasted my time, i finsished it within 10 mins

Really poor. Just the same level for 32 levels, with poorly ripped Quake 3 textures. This is so bad it doesn't even belong on this FTP.

Some megawads or episodes built around a concept are in fact quite good stuff. This wad, however, is certainly not one of them, not even close in fact. It's just redundant to have a different monster over and over in the exact same room, thirty times. Did the author really think this would be a nice concept? I never would have. I can't think of any reason at all to play or even look at this. As such, no stars for you.

Very Good idea ! It's very fun. I play with often. Super !

I feel that doom is usually just a big key hunt, with a few monsters here and there to try to kill you. But i like skulltag's invasion mode bettar than this. Plus all the maps for ST's invasion.

Yeah. There's a big difference between this WAD and arcade games - arcade games are fun.

Robotron, I suppose. The basic idea is a large arena filled with large quantities of mostly a single type of monster. Briefly fun on the 'zombie' levels, because they shoot each other for great justice. A slog on every other level. Odd lapses include level with single revanant, level with two revenants, etc; obviously running out of inspiration. Last level has no monsters. Levels 31 and 32 levels tribute to Wolfenstein, v. clever.

No, not 30 levels. One level, over and over. Like QUAKE, but retarded 0/5
