Solid set of re-interpretations of 11 of the original maps that looks better and are overall more challenging. If you're not a TNT fan this probably won't change your mind, as they do pretty much what the original maps do, but if you are then this is recommended. I especially liked Open Season and Stronghold in this one. I would have liked to see Eternal's idea of MAP12, but this was never made into a full megawad.

I've just finished playing all the maps, and seeing this TNT maps remade is a great feeling. Generally they are all a step above their original counter part, but also having played TNT Revilution I can't help but compare then, and putting the maps that pull the same inspiration side by side there is no contest, Renascence is left way behind, not to say there are bad, but Transduction and Fortress of Bullets are just in another League.
Now, Taking advantage that I'm talking about Revilution it's map 18 (Hell's Signs) was made by Eternal and probrably is a little glimpse of what episode 2 of Renascence could've been.

Finally, I find it very tragic that this isn't getting a sequel, but since Eternal still an active mapper so the hope isn't complete lost.

Eternal shows one more time how much he loves TNT: Evilution.

 

Sincerely, i can't show him how much i appreaciate this love.

It just made verything right, even the quirky designs of the original team are respected here, and impproves with hist vast knowledge an excellence on mapping.

 

Eternal, i can only wait for you to, someday, revisit this project and make a full Renascence for this much beloved IWAD.

Faithful recreation of the first 11 maps of TNT: Evilution, with levels similar to their original counterparts but having enough differences to make it a refreshing experience. While TNT: Evilution have its flaws and this PWAD still carries some of the more infamous ones (MAP08: Metal comes to mind), this is still a solid set of levels that captured the sense of adventure and exploration that is present in the TNT IWAD.

Remakes are never better than the originals and this happened to be a remake of something not so good.

Renascence is to TNT what Remain1 is to Doom2, sortof. Pretty good work, even if the map04 reinterpretation could be better in my opinion. ~Naan

Not bad. You did a pretty good job recreating the levels from TNT.

Captures the TNT feel very well. Not a big fan of Evilution, but I enjoyed these for the most part. Some of the original maps (Map08, Map11) just weren't salvageable, and Map06 felt like I downgrade from the original. Still, 4/5 for making tnt levels I don't hate.

Enjoyed it immensely. It kept the style of the original whilst keeping things new and with Eternal's trademark style. Very good. 5 stars. -TRRobin.

This was really awesome. I felt like I was low on ammo the first few maps but other than that the whole thing was just amazing. Good work, I'm hoping to see a remake for the rest of the maps. 5/5 -High Flyin' Ryan

Good remake, not bad for TNT fans, but it's a little hard...stopped play at map07, because I get boring on that, like the original TNT. :p 4/5 -playerlin

Some maps are better than the originals. Other maps only capture the essence. In any case good job. 5/5

MAP01 had me worried that the whole mapset was going to be too easy, as I didn't get hit once. However I'd managed to die on MAP07, so the difficulty had curved nicely. Certainly has the feel of the original, but perhaps sticks a little to close to the principles, as I'm not much of an Evilution fan. 4* - Phobus

A very impressive remake. I'm six maps in. Personally, I would have preferred if you were less faithful to the original (I don't think the original TNT is that good). Thanks for sharing.

      These levels are short, sweet, and pack a lot of punch. Complete with a humorous end-text-screen containing a healthy dose of silly shock-humor, this a masterful triumph of Heretic map-making, and most certainly a must-play wad.

      A really frantic and fun DM map with pretty neat stuff like invisible pillar in the middle of the arena, doesn't have anything to do with the title but the level can become a BFG spamming fest soon, especially with bots. Less fun in SP but the arch-ville+bunch of nazi combo is a nice feat.

      Only six enemies (played on UV) and no working exit. Other than that, it is a pretty detailed map for 1995. I enjoyed the general design and the poisonous vats of acid. Very cool, but not practical for good gameplay.   EDIT: Just discovered this is a ideally a DM wad… haha, for that purpose, it seems good. My original rating was 2/5, will change it now.

      Lots of traps and monster closets. Some switches are activated by shooting but there's nothing to really tell you about this because they look the same as other switches.   Texturing is good and enemy placement proved rather difficult at times. There aren't may health pickups on UV so it was a fight to get through.

      It's pretty good for 1994. If you don't mind having no health items at all (except in a few maps) and the outrageous amounts of cyberdemons per map, you should give it a try. It's pretty challenging and I like it. E2M3 is a bit 'eh...' though.
