E3M4 - Ventôse by Roofi

Description: A strange museum resides in the heavens. Who could have built it? It's huge! In any case, a long adventure lies before you. Will you get out of this museum alive?

NB : Ventôse is the name for March in the Republican Calendar. It's the date when I finished that map.

Build time: 3-4 months

New music (if any): Secret of Evermore - Queen Bluegarden

Tested with: Prboom+ complevel 3

E3M5 - Brazen Hell by SteveD

Description: Hi Walter confetti. Here is my map, Brazen Hell  The background music is Beast Attack, composed by David Whittaker, from the old Amiga game Shadow of The Beast.

I know you didn't want hard, slaughtery maps, but I disappoint you once again. ;D

I did a quick implementation of difficulty settings, but I've only tested UV.

In the process of making and testing this map, I suffered from indecision. As I said a few months ago, I wanted to create a scenario where Hell was taking over an interstellar outpost, but the forces of humanity were making a comeback. In this version of the map, you'll see where I forked off one side to become a techbase. However, in making the Hell portion of the map, I created a non-stop, fairly savage fight with over 300 monsters on UV, and with a really bigass trap. In testing the gameplay tonight, I said to myself, "This is really all the map we need. There is no reason to make a techbase side, and if I do that, it will just make the map overly long and possibly boring."

Those are my thoughts, but I give you this version with the techbase fork, which is just some stairs and an empty room, so you can decide for yourself. If you agree with me, I'll delete the fork and clean up a few other things, get rid of the yellow skull bars, and it will be done, apart from any changes that need doing after we get some playtests.

New music: Beast Attack by David Whittaker

Tested with: Crispy Doom 5.10.0, Gzdoom 4.5.0

E3M6 - Severed Realm by riderr3

Advanced engine needed: Limit-Removing
Music: growls_then_bites.mid from LauraMIDI pack
Map: E3M6
Single Player: Designed for
Cooperative: Yes
Deathmatch: Yes
Difficulty Settings: Yes
Build Time: 12 days
Editor(s) used: GZDoomBuilder-bugfix, SLADE3, WadSpy
Tested With: PrBoom-Plus 2.5.1.4
Description: You stepped into Severed Realm's main entrance. The sun was shining and scorching heat was radiating from the sky under your feet...

E3M7 - What Stares Back by Pegleg

Title: What Stares Back

Map Slot: E3M7

Build time: Many, many hours spread over several months

Music: "The Infinite Sky" by Zach Siegel

Difficulty settings: Implemented

Co-op: Starts only

Deathmatch: Starts only (I don't think this map is terribly good for deathmatch, but the starts are there for completeness)

Tested on: GZDoom 3.2.5, GZDoom 4.1.3, and PrBoom+ 2.5.1.4

Editor used: Eureka v.1.27b

Estimated playtime: At least 30 minutes

Additional comments:

- Eureka built the nodes using the XNOD format (ZDoom uncompressed normal nodes).

- The ammo is intended to be somewhat tight on UV. If you find the secrets, the ammo will be less tight. The ammo has yet to be fully balanced for the lower difficulties, though.

E3M8 - Without Remorse by The_Slovinator

Description: This was my first time making my own E3M8, so I tried to make it as cool as possible & quite tough for the final level. Really proud of this one.

Build time: One month & six days

New music (if any): Breaking Benjamin - So Cold (MIDI version)

Tested with: Crispy Doom 5.9.1

Difficulty selection: Yes

E3M9 - Deja by ShadesMaster

Description: Latest version. Not much through the red door path proper, but the side areas where the computer maze was is now a puzzle to get the BFG. And of course inspired by Pandemonium. Essentially, you need to access multiple prior secrets and do things in a certain order or the BFG remains inaccessible.

New music: Sinister by Bobby Prince

Tested with: Crispy Doom 3.2 and Gzdoom
