Projectname: shorty400
Description: The goal is to make unique themed-vanilla Doom2 maps with not more than 400 linedefs per map.
This will get tricky for the later maps which should be much bigger than the first ones.

That's an interesting limitation that I don't recall ever seeing before. What made you pick 400 as the limit?

I'd considered doing something similar in terms of restricting the level design, though I was thinking of making the limit be 999 vertices, rather than basing it on linedefs.

Looks decent, nothing too special, although this is a good idea and I'll be watching.

Also, what is that writing on the wall on screen 1?

Well since Im a fan of small maps (I hate big ones :D)
I started with the goal of doing only 200 linedefs per map.
Then I saw that this would be impossible if you want to make the map detailed.
So I raised it up to 400.
So you see, the idea was found in boredom^^

shorty400, the name of the WAD :D


I know its nothing to special but well this isnt meant to be something special.
I mean, I cant do scripting, things with Decorate or what ever, I only know how to design maps and edit umps this is why I do thing simple little project.

But thank you for your interest screens will follow in a few hours unfortunaly I have some more work to do :-(

Intressting. Maybe I can make one map to contribute.

Would be very nice of you.
More screens will follow in 1-2 hours I think.

What kind of theme would you like have for your map?

So I've almost finished the first map I just have to add some more items and stuff.
This is a screen from Doom Builder of the whole map:



Unfortunaly it got EXTREMLY small but well I think this is ok for MAP01.
For the other maps I could need to add a few less details, might be tricky.
The map isnt really speedrunable because there will be monsters blocking your way all the time because its really tight.
Well, I will try to make MAP02 much much bigger (Lets say like the original MAP02 of Doom2).

I will upload the first map tomorrow so you can play it and maybe give me some feedback :D
