About This File
This is reminicent of a castle with moat and all. There still a few
problems. Some of the walls are paper thin, which should NOT be done
(I wish I'd known that earlier). Bitmaps don't all line up either.

By AutumnCyberStarlight · PostedIt's not terrible, but it is very bland and there's too many tight spaces. It is a 1994 wad so I will judge it by those standards, but there are good '94 wads. Repetitive texture usage makes it hard to navigate and know where to go, gameplay is rather bland as you mostly just use a shotgun for the majority of the map, and occasionally a rocket launcher, however rocket usage is limited due to how small and tight most spaces on the map are, so it's hard to use them without damaging yourself. The soulsphere trap was pretty neat and I liked the secret area with the lowering platforms of enemies, however alot more could have been done to make the map more interesting and varied. -
By Napeyear · PostedAwesome Eternal Doom influenced mapset that does a great job of combining the creative map design and exploration focused elements of Eternal Doom with modern game play. This WAD is a great alternative/spinoff to Eternal Doom III, lacking the huge levels with archaic progression and confusing level design that some people are put off by in the original. Some levels near the end are pretty big, but aren't super cryptic (save for one map) and feature some cool fights and always manages to stay engaging. Although there are only 11 levels, each one is chock full of fun game play and some really nice looking medieval areas as well, ending with a cool custom boss-fight at the very end. Highly recommended! -
By Logamuffin · PostedI disagree, I think it's very funny. Anyways, here's my review of it from my Dean of Doom thread a while ago: Oh boy, Combat Shock 2... Considering how unfun the first one was, I was really not expecting much. But wow, this blew me away! This wad steps on the gas and does not let up. The first map reminds me of the first map from Scythe 2's 5th episode both in visuals and vibe. And then the 2nd map. Wow, just wow. I feel like that map made me start loving slaughter maps, everything about it is just perfect. Then of course there was the 5th map: Boiling Point. This one was even more of a wow moment for me, at that point I knew I was playing something really special. The visual aesthetic of this wad is gorgeous, the combat design is totally bonkers and the fights rarely feel tedious like in the original. Everything just clicks. I wasn't excited before, but this kind of action makes me excited for Sunlust. Grade: A- -
