How did people even find the hallway?

i would love to try to play completely through this mod, but i have one problem.

whenever i drag myhouse.pk3 to gzdoom, and select doom2.wad, it just places me into the shortened version of the mod where you get the blue keycard inside of the red carded closet. does anyone have advice on how to get the full version to work?

That's what is supposed to happen. You're playing the correct version.

I think a big part is that it managed to appeal to both newcomers and experienced Doom players. There are many interesting things for these two types of players to focus on throughout the level. The basic gameplay and mystery of the map doesn't depend on any Doom knowledge, and it lets itself reference modern cultural ideas unconnected to Doom like liminal spaces. At the same time it's filled with extra jokes and details just for the experienced players, like how the map initially pretends it's only going to use Boom features and eases itself into using more advanced features so it can keep surprising the player about what it will allow itself to do.

 

Compare this to another recent map that plays with the player's expectations, TNTPhobia. I like the map, but it only really has something special to offer the whole way through for experienced Doom players. This stops it from having the same level of breakout potential that MyHouse had.

I did it. It took 2.5 hours of work, but it was worth it.

Time for bed.
