The Bowels of Hell - Download
|
This is a 32 level replacement for Doom2 which was created using SLIGE.
The version I have here was redone by an anonymous Doom fan who made many
improvements to the code. Here is the
Slige Home Page.
What is slige you ask? For those who have been around awhile you know, for
those who don't it is a program that creates random generated levels for
Doom and Doom2 and does a pretty damn good job too. They aren't of the
same quality that a really good level designer such as (cough, cough)
myself will create but they come out decent and playable and actually fun.
The whole process takes about 5 minutes. Can you imagine that?
So what can you expect? - This one is more difficult than November Doom2
wad but less difficult than The Proving Grounds. You can see from the
screenies below that there are plenty of badasses in this and a couple of
times I actually ran short of ammo.
What not to expect- Don't expect lots of architecture. This is after all
generated by a program and the program has no imagination. It does a
decent job of texture alignment but is not perfect - same with floor and
ceiling flats. Most of them look ok but some are a little out of wack.
Why do I recommend this download? Because its FUN! I have enjoyed playing
this so much its not even funny, despite the drawbacks of the program. You
will notice that most if not all the levels first rooms have a certain
ceiling style - that is what distinguishes them as slige wads so people
don't make levels with slige and then submit them to the ftp sites.
Anyway - just check it out and see what you think...
