Maribo Posted October 9, 2022 (edited) old context: Spoiler These maps are made by @gabirupee. During the development of Hardfest, gabirupee had to unfortunately step down from the project due to personal reasons. They sent me a pair of unrelated maps to test shortly before that, a pair of Crumpets-inspired works that would likely have expanded into a few more... but unfortunately, they currently don't possess the means to work on them and probably won't for some time. I'd been wondering what to do about these maps for a while, because it would really suck to add another thing to the list of "lost wads" or whatever you'd like to call it, but gabirupee returned recently and gave me their permission to do anything with them so long as they're credited. So here we are, this is Muffins by gabirupee. :)MAPLIST: Map01: Stella Votum Map02: Brigadeiro There appear to be no difficulty settings. I tested these originally on DSDA-Doom v0.24.3 -complevel 21, but I imagine it should work on anything capable of running MBF21-compatible maps. Screenshots: Spoiler Get it here: -link removed at author request- Dev thread for a Crumpets-like wad by gabirupee. See the old context spoiler for actual context on the original post. You can probably find the latest version in one of their latest posts. Edited October 21, 2022 by Maribo 29 Share this post Link to post
Jizzwardo Posted October 9, 2022 I love it! Though I need to ask, are you meant to be able to walk through this railing? it seems a little bit strange to be able to but if that's what you're supposed to do then fair enough. Spoiler 2 Share this post Link to post
Thelokk Posted October 9, 2022 (edited) Omegalulz, those who thought Gabi's entry for Hardfest was a difficult map are in for a fun surprise with these ones. The instakill floor made me thing MBF, but it is Boom after all, huh? First map has some real cruel platforming, but nothing too crazy - did save a bit but was able to overcome without much trouble. The second map, on the other hand... savescummed away. Might even be a bit too RNG dependent, I actually had to restart because of a couple of very nasty damage rolls right at the start. Still, excellent mini-set that definitely shows some Crumpets inspo. Well done, and here's to Gabi's swift return to Doomdom. 2 Share this post Link to post

Gabi seemed to have been doubled down really hard on space restriction before having to stop... I remember one of their scrapped maps was a really tight jungle-y cavern with minimal space to move and some quite deadly enemies. Map02 of this seems to carry the same kind of design philosophy. 2 Share this post Link to post

RiviTheWarlock Posted October 10, 2022 It was enjoyable with save scumming, I'm not sure what Doom masochist would ever wanna play these maps without saves though. Several fights entirely depend on good infighting and damage rolls. If you go in open to saving it can be fun taking each ridiculous challenge step by step at a time. 0 Share this post Link to post
Nefelibeta Posted October 14, 2022 01: Nice little remix of Crumpets Map01, fantastic lighting and use of plutonia textures. The somewhat cruel platforming should give you a tiny idea of what would come later though. Do some sick ledgewalking, drink the Earl Grey and move on. 02: Never have I seen a map that drains most of your health by requring you to do an AVJ, but here we have it. This map is Crumpets on mega steroids, tight fights but much more hostile than Crumpets because of the amount of high tiers you have there. Even a cyberdemon, very unfriendly. In terms of resources, this map is probably more unfriendly though, for the most part I was under 30% health and ammo is also incredibly tight. Well too bad I also unfortunately missed the berserk secret. Overall pretty fun still, I'd imagine this will be quite frustrating without saves. :) 2 Share this post Link to post
Maribo Posted October 15, 2022 Gabirupee has surprisingly sent me a new version intended to balance Map02 to be much less rng, updated version is in the OP. 3 Share this post Link to post
gabirupee Posted October 15, 2022 Thank you guys for the feedback :D, these are some dumb speedmaps i made when i was bored, i didn't intended to release the way they are now but i glad you folks enjoyed these :) Will probably use this thread as a repository for more crumpets-inspired speedmaps if i feel the urge to do. 6 Share this post Link to post
LadyMistDragon Posted October 15, 2022 (edited) So a demo. I think they are of the fixed version. I had to rewind quite a bit in Map 01 btw since I can't doom platform to save my life. lmd_muffins.zip 1 Share this post Link to post

Nefelibeta Posted October 21, 2022 new 02: My doomer instinct told me it isn't a wise idea to play this map without getting warmed up properly, but yet I did it anyway. So a lot easier than I expected, much MUCH easier than the original map02. The fight that gave me the most trouble is definitly the boners trap backed up with 3-4 chaingunners, seems to be a little bit *too* on the nose to be honest. Overall a pretty cool map and probably a better opener compared to the original Map02. Quite curious, are you planning to keep the original Map02? Would be a shame if it's just gone. 1 Share this post Link to post
gabirupee Posted October 21, 2022 Probably will put it in this set on a higher slot, or utilize on some cp. 0 Share this post Link to post
