Battle_Korbi Posted July 27, 2017 Or any kind of hot liquid these days, that is. What (mega)wads you can recommend that are short and simple, yet fun? Not neccesarily pocket-sized maps. Not too much complex nor puzzley either. To consider how much simple, consider maps so simple that even after you finish them, you won't forget about the soup/tea/coffee/any beverage you left somewhere to cool down. So? 0 Share this post Link to post
Misty Posted July 27, 2017 I guess, TVR! will fit here. Levels aren't hard, don't have long puzzles and maps are quite small. 1 Share this post Link to post

Voros Posted July 27, 2017 googol.wad I recommend watching speedrun demos instead of playing WADs though. 0 Share this post Link to post
Grazza Posted July 27, 2017 Of recent wads, I can suggest this. Very bite-sized maps, some violent and some less so. Overall fairly cute stuff. I have recorded a few demos. 0 Share this post Link to post

I'm getting to the point where I just download anything you recommend -- I like your style! ;-) Finding time to play them is another matter. :-\ 0 Share this post Link to post

42PercentHealth Posted July 27, 2017 Ah, ribbiks. I did not like Stardate 20X6.... Well, maybe I'll give him a second chance. 0 Share this post Link to post

SunLust, Stardate, crumpets, Italo doom and frog are all good in their own right. His maps tend to be a bit more unforgiving though. ;-) 1 Share this post Link to post

I don't like Ribbiks' speedmaps because of lack of exploration and frustrating experimental traps which need a lot of tries before managing to survive. 0 Share this post Link to post

Some of the encounters don't really achieve slaughter proportions, but they can still be just as hard. 0 Share this post Link to post
Ribbiks Posted July 27, 2017 (edited) not sure how my maps got roped into this thread. don't play any of my stuff @Battle_Kirby it's not what you're looking for. As far as enjoyable "fast food" doom maps go, why not try something like coffee break (aptly named) or the rebirth? 1 Share this post Link to post
AncientRain Posted July 27, 2017 Coffee break was the first WAD that sprang to mind 0 Share this post Link to post
