It depends on whether you want the level to be "challenging hard" or "annoying hard." For challenging hard, give the player just what they need to get through the fight. For example, you can kill a Baron of hell with 12-14 shotgun blasts/6-7 super shotgun blasts. If you have two barons in a room and a shotgun, you would need at least a shotgun and a box of shells to make it work. I would only put the bare minimum of ammo on UV. As far as health goes, you would need to put more of it in a smaller environment if you were to use Barons because without much room to move around, the player is more likely to get hit. Think of how much health the player will need. Playing through it several times and seeing how much you get hurt is really the best way to gauge this. "Annoying hard" will disregard the above rules because the author hates you. Don't make "annoying hard" maps.

One of these days I'm going to do something to get that typo off of the idgames page.

Thanks! It'll be done sometime in this decade.

It's something I'm working on that is currently untitled.

You should see what they mistake for news.

It's weird seeing Australian Flo.

Messing with the doom punch and some new gore effects led to this, which is impossible to get a screenshot of in action:

The HUD weapon graphics are misaligned. It's most noticeable with the chaingun muzzle flash. And, IMO, 3d models for doom sprites look about as good as sprite-based monsters would in Half-Life. Since I've only got an Android device with a resistive touch screen, I won't be playing this. Probably wouldn't run on the device anyway from the look of those water effects.

Wizardry.

Deathmatch.

I was curious to see if I could move a skybox camera around in ZDoom. It's possible, but it doesn't handle turns very well. Sorry about the lack of sound. Fraps wasn't being cooperative today.

R.I.P.

The first map is pretty hard. Nearly impossible until I found the SSG. The exit doesn't work, so I'll warp to map02. EDIT: MAP02 is less difficult, but I passed the exit line before I could kill the last monster. I'd suggest putting the monsters on the rising floors (tag 1) somewhere else to avoid getting stuck in those pits accidentally.

I'm pretty sure it's legal in Arizona to just shoot someone who pisses you off on the internet. This new law saves lives.

That screenshot makes me think it's just rendering in some kind of 3d anaglyph. Get out your blue and black 3d glasses!

This. Also, it's still science fiction because no one uses Google+.

Why post a video of Rick Santorum not using a racial slur when there are plenty of other videos where he says crazy, reprehensible, regressive shit?

Do nuts.wad.

Ah, crap. Thought I'd gotten all of the sky transfer problems. Thanks for the feedback. Deleted the old file and changed the link above.

Okay. This is a boom compatible map I threw together over the last couple of days called "Troll Fortress." New version: http://www.mediafire.com/?6tfb2f03cb5ssvy

@Kaiser: I like the textures. They fit well with Doom64. Now, YET MORE CITY: http://imgur.com/RZKWO http://imgur.com/Y0Sw8 I'm thinking of ditching the fake pixelation on the billboard. It looks weird except when looking at it straight on: http://imgur.com/qOBE8

I played maps 1, 2, 29,999 and 30,000. I found the secret exit in level 2 by opening the console and typing "map map29999."

Strife 3 will come out before Half-Life 3.

Once back in the 90's *shudder*
