Radio Free Gehenna: A Retro Community Project (Featuring Zero Fancy Presentation)

[AtticTelephone]

                                                                     

Radio Free Gehenna (title inspired by Radio Free Albemuth) is a CP with the only theme being retro, as you are limited to only the textures provided by Doom 2 and the texturepack below (scrapped together from the Parallel Phobos texturepack, Deus Vult, Scythe and Dystopia 3 + some cavern crap from an old wad called Mayan Temple). The texturepack also includes titlescreen and intermission music from Requiem + title and intermission graphics, as well as sky textures.

 

 

Rules:

 

As said above, you can only use textures from the pack and Doom 2.

 

All maps must be Limit-Removing, nothing else.

 

Detailing should be restrained a reasonable amount for the sake of visual consistency across maps.

 

Zappa references in your map titles will make me like you more.

 

You cannot submit a map if you have not claimed a mapslot.

Have a good mapping session. Also, I forgot to note that custom midis are both allowed and encouraged. I'll add a MIDI thing to the Map Submission Template.

I take MAP08, why not?

Have a good mapping session. The ghost of Zappa drives you forward.

I like to experiment with different textures. Sign me up for slot #3, please.

[Chainie]

You seem quite eager, have a good mapping session.

Have a good mapping session. Make it a good one because it's the intro to it all.

[AtticTelephone]

I'll be reserving MAP10, got to give the spelunking junkies a good subterranean map

[Walter confetti]

Interesting, but i have too many other Doom projcets needed to be completed first, good luck with the project! Did this project have any kind of theme or it is free for all?

The only theme is retro, and one of the rules specifies restrained detailing.

[Matt Eldrydge]

Hey, I'm interested in giving this a try. Could I get map 04? Also, I assume the format is vanilla Doom 2?

Have a good mapping session, also, yes it is Vanilla Doom 2.

[Logamuffin]

I'll take Map05 please!

I'll call my map "Cosmik Debris" or something :)

Have a good mapping session, also, Cosmik Debris is a bit of a strange title if you aren't making a space map. Maybe you could try "The Eric Dolphy Memorial Barbecue" and have a bunch of hanging corpses over burning barrels. That's a Zappa track AND it would fit the map.

[Axuris]

Suppose I could make a non-Boom map for once, I'll take MAP06.

@AtticTelephone Would you mind moving my claim to a later slot? I'd like to use higher tier monsters.

MAP12 for ya. Use them high tier mofos however you want.

[Al-Faris M]

Sign me up for MAP07! I would like to make a boss map (like Dead Simple), but I wont go too harsh on difficulty since it's the MAP07 slot :P
May I ask, does the "retro" theme imply that the maps need to look like old 90's Doom maps? If so, then I find that excellent!

The retro means it shouldn't look like any modern fancily detailed maps. Have a good mapping session.

[Heretic926]

I'll take MAP09, always wanted to make a map in single digit slot.
