Loving the theme going on here. Can't wait to see the final product!

Screenshot update!
Going through each map again and adding some details here and there and
I am really thinking about adding reverb effects to certain parts of void maps to
make the maps sound more open.

Screenshot update!

Lookin' good! Ambitious/creative idea too.

Some video footage of me playing map01.

Interesting ideas. I really like animated sky and the black Demon having that revenge fireball attack upon death.

This project isnt dead, I just havnt had the amount of time to work on it that Id like to have.
Here is some screenshot updates of a new map that I am working on.

There's zones in the fifth(?) map that become bridges that don't teleport the player before the bridge raises.

It's not a void wad unless falling into the void kills you and takes 45 seconds

Love the shots, this looks great :D

ha. the one thing that irritated me about void.

It's looking really good. I just wish I had the free time to beta test.

It looks truly beautiful, not only is it an original idea, with new weapons, a few new enemies, and the fact it DOESN'T murder you for falling into an endless pit, but instead, teleports you to somewhere else, I love it. Keep on doing what you do, this will be one of my favorite WADs for doom.

Looking for a few testers that are interested in a close testing phase since my wad is now ready for testing. Send me a pm if interested.

5 map demo is now released hope you guys enjoy.
I would love to hear any feedback your willing to give about my wad <3

Can't wait to try it. Downloading now.

Screenshot update

almost done with map06 and already thinking about what map07 will look like.

Someone likes his SPFACE.

Until I can get my Main account back(cant password reset an old unused email) Ill be using this account to post updates to this wad.

 

Here are some screenshot updates of map07 

Doing more tweeks to certain subvoid in the first maps, like map01 and map02 ill make monsters and items stop respawning after 1 or 2 instances.

I removed the pistol and replaced it with the first void weapon,  also added a new melee weapon that steals life on hit and gains ammo for its altfire per monster hit which tosses out a barrage of fireballs.

There's a neat texture in a R667 texture file that involves a bunch of melded faces in similar manner to the SPFace, maybe it will be of value?

Ill look into that thankyou Sarais!   i'm also looking into adding more good textures into this wad.

Ah, yes. It's in the shadowcastertex wad.

What ports/engines is this compatible with?

It works with gzdoom and opengl zandronum.  zdoom doesnt look right with this wad, especially the skyboxes look cruddy on zdoom.

Finished map07 and just started on map08 last night. I added a new weapon to this wad which is called the Void Blade. This weapon is a melee weapon that you can find in every map. The Void Blade's main attack is a melee attack that deals a good amount of damage and steals life based on damage done. The secondary attack is a ranged attack that tosses out a few short ranged fireballs, the only way to gain ammo for this secondary attack is to hit monsters with its melee strike.

 

Here are some new screenshots to show my current map progress.

 

Half way through with map08, this will be the first nonhellish looking map in the series.

 

heres a teaser video of version 1.2

 

 

 

Here are some screenshots of my progress.
