Congratulations @mArt1And00m3r11339, you managed to finish the final section without relying on the crushers to take out the barons around the outside. Was that deliberate or because you didn't know about the crushers?

That was because I had 100 health left with no armor and there were no megaspheres left. I was afraid that if I took the stairs with the barons alive, I would end up dying (I would fear that all it takes is 2 fireballs from the barons and I'm dead, so I just stayed away and killed them some by some).

@Bdubzzz I beat "Swiss Cheese Strike," level 18. Video of it will be on YouTube soon.

@Bdubzzz I will have to have some Swiss cheese after playing your level ("Swiss Cheese Strike"). Kills (4,722/4,655) and 100% on items and secrets.

@Bdubzzz I beat your level, "Blood and Stones." "Back and Forth" is probably going to be harder than the other ones that you have made for this community project.

@Bdubzzz I beat "Back and Forth." Easier than expected (took me nearly a day, as opposed to "Swiss Cheese Strike" and "Castle of Hell," which took 2 days).

nice job, Back and Forth took me the longest but the final version was nerfed down so it could be easier for me to max ;p

This music would be a good fit for your level.

 

[mArt1And00m3r11339]

@antares031 I beat your level. Video of it will be up sometime soon.

I will definitely play this as soon as the final version is released.

I still think it was a pretty good level. My longest levels are the cake levels (Oreo Cake Massacre, Carrot Cake Massacre, and Peanut Butter Cake Massacre) which took me ~6 hours to beat them.

I wonder if this project is still active.

It will be on idgames, when it's done. If you really want to know about the progress, just ask the project manager.

The reason why I asked was because I haven't heard anyone say anything about this project in some time.

I believe there are just some co-op checks to be done before the wad gets shipped off to idgames, and the SP version of the wad will not change at all at this point.

Found that I have to wait for almost 8 mins after killing all enemies...

Good job on beating it.

Small issue with map 17 Literally unplayable. I completed the western + encounter pacifist which resulted in the last encounter of the map being skipped.

The monsters can't be woken up from the last fight area either so I had to play the level again to see the last fight. 

 

Hope this was worth bumping the thread.

Heh was thinking, 'that escalated quickly' -- until remembering the map name.

It would be a major issue if the map was, indeed, literally unplayable.

 

Might as well ask if there is any update on the coop version or final release of this project?

[Firedust]

Hi! What's yellow key switch supposed to do on map 9? Nothing seems to lower or open. Am I missing something? Playing in zdoom 2.8.1.

Good find, but I don't think it can be fixed without desyncing the demo.

There's just one issue to solve and some more testing for the coop version. I'm tempted to just upload them to the archive separately at this point!

Hopefully it lowers this pillar/teleporter:

It didn't : ( I'm playing the co-op version I think.

I'm currently playing this wad. I have a lot of fun on it but unfortunately , I don't have the time to write detailed reviews. So here are short reviews on the 8 first levels I played for now :

 

1 - Fun but brutal colorful classic cavernous map.

2 - A hellish level with very rudimentary graphics, but on the other hand I had a lot of fun in the room with the teleporting monsters.

3 - Fun map which can be easily cheesed by circle-strafing. Arch-viles didn't cause me so much trouble.

4 - Very Brutal little arena. Nothing special to say about this map.

5 - Tough "Ribbiks wanna-be" kind of map with a million of arch-viles but fun.

6 - Really impressive map in terms of architecture. It reminded me of Sunder map 11. Pretty creative combats , even if I found the last area a bit dull.

7. I didn't like this map. I didn't understand the gimmick here. I had to watch BK's demo.

8 - I oddly enjoyed this map. I loved how square the architecture was. The level was not very hard except at the end where I literraly spent hours to find a way to kill all the HK and the Revenants.

This is on /idgames finally!

The version for coop isn't included in the idgames release; it still needs some testing and will be released separately.

I'm playing through this for the first time myself. Most of the maps were pretty fun so far. I've had to skip map07 because I don't know how to glide and I've skipped map11 as well because I just got so frustrated with the meager ammo supply in the last fight. I've actually noticed a lot of maps have had a pretty low ammo supply, which I'm not really a fan of, but oh well. Map31 was incredibly, incredibly grindy for me, not sure how many people would agree. I'm at the beginning of map16 right now, and I must say whoever chose the midi has absolute great taste. It's probably my favorite banjo-tooie soundtrack aside from the Grunty Industries one.
