Doxylamine Moon: Overdose

About This File

TURN OFF "try to evulate IT"! The map is in fact a reinterpretation and continuation of my map from Sacrament wad.

Major differences: - The map became "playable", e.g. there are many monsters in it (this was the main goal of remaking the original). - New locations added. Hope they are as successful as those in "Doxylamine Moon" in Sacrament. - Automap added and handled properly. - Also, old locations have been slightly modified.

Now, a few words about the plot. Generally it's based on the Sacrament wad story: It's the End of the World. All unworthy people see each other as monsters, including the protagonist. The action is taking place later than the Sacrament.wad's plot. The protagonist wakes up in a museum, where he passed out for a while - due to an overdose. By this time the End of the World has entered the final phase long ago (it began in the end of Sacrament.wad), and among other things, the wet areas became freezing (slightly). The main character, of course, is not aware of what's going on, so he must think what to do in this situation.

Not as good as the original which was more atmospheric and exploration based. This has more enemies yet is confusing because the blue key area is there, yet no blue key. No need to remake an already good level.

I don't think that the alternate exit is reachable on this version, the one that's on Sacrament is reachable though it's puzzling as hell. this version is basically a more combat-oriented version of the original, and it's very nice.

Underrated. Not a perfect one but I couldn't hate any parts of it. 5/5 - Katamori

It still a nice map, but must have a powerful computer for it...the new weapons sprites seems not fit at all... also, I didn't found the blue key, so the other exit(?) is unreachable, even I use noclip cheat to get it, the teleport into the inner room still killed my DooMguy instantly, I have no idea why still put that exit on the level since this release's Map02 is useless... 3.5/5

Efford: 4/5. Nice scenery, but way too many visible items causes it to slow down to unplayable, even on i7-2600K & HD-6950: 3.5/5. Gameplay: almost not there. No challenge, and 90% of doors are no-ops which leads to endless searching: 1/5. So overall: a disappointing 3/5

A nice city map. It's a real city, not 'tetris'. I want more! 5/5.

Great design, but sometimes this map may run very slow even with prboom's software renderer.

"the map became playable" you say... indeed, some action has been added to the table, but the map not became more entertaining because of that. atmosphere is a bit ruined now and brand new action isn't anything great. in trying to achieve both points you just lose it all IMO.

I've played that work. Also played some other works of the same author. What I can say? It is boring. The author obviously tried to create something that can raise him in his own eyes, meybe in eyes of the same-kind geeks (subscribed in the credits section, to the matte, their works are not much worse from his). But author have only achieved another witness of his shit-feeding. 1 star - because of my good mood.

      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 is 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.
