Russian Random Speedmap Pack #1 [18 totally different maps]

[DRON12261]

What is this? This is a big compilation of totally different maps made in a limited time. The idea came about in a crazy spontaneous way, first I pushed @MAN_WITH_GUN to make a map on Discord for his birthday (happy birthday again). Further I was inspired by this idea and decided to try to speedmapping for the first Doom and funnily enough separately from us at this time speedmapping decided to try GranitMaster. Next when Man With A Gun played my map in voice chat he again wanted to speedmap for the first Doom. After seeing this funny sequence of "speedmapping incidents" we decided to take this "relay race" to the masses by organizing a modest event in our local community. And here is the result you see now, 18 completely different maps in 9 days!

In this compilation you will see:

• Classic E1 maps;
• Over-detailed levels (mapper, touch the grass);
• Shovelware from the 90s;
• Cyberpunk 1993;
• Slotter version of Dead Simple for... HEXEN;
• Ice Dancing with a Cyberdemon;
• Some another bit of gothic;
• and much more...

The conditions of the event were as free and simple as possible - the only limitation that participants had was time. The idea of the event was that someone just started to do something and most importantly immediately bring it to completion (partially analogous to NaNoWADMo).

A quick summary of the rules:

• The participant chooses his own time for which he should make a map, but no more than 10 hours.
• The participant is free to make a map in any format, for any target ports and for any game on the Doom engine.
• The map is the priority, not the timer! Generating ideas, selecting music, textures, and other resources are not counted in the timer. Only the mapping process itself counts. Similarly, fixes and balance adjustments are allowed after the map has been made (but only small ones).
• Authors are free to do whatever they want with their maps afterwards, to refine them, to remake them, to release them separately. Their work is not rigidly tied to the project, in this package stored just speedmaps, which later in the hands of their authors may well serve as a foundation for something more ambitious.

 

 

The most interesting part - the list of works. I have categorized all the maps by authors.

I was glad to participate in this project, a great experience. As a result we have a lot of good maps from a lot of talented people. I hope to participate in the next parts of the project!

[Async Unicorn]

It was funny!

Also it's funny that my first map was released in someone's project and not externally, like it's usually does, lol.

[MAN_WITH_GUN]

I've farted. It's wet. And i don't wanna move.

I would never have assumed these were done in a speedmapping project going by the screenshots. They look very impressive. Looking forward to playing them!

[Walter confetti]

Interesting thing, it's like the Mondo /VR/ and DMP 2021/2022 projects but for speedmapping.

@LoatharMDPhD
DRON12261 calls everyone to speedmapping with the words "Are you made a map for OUR community project, comrade?!" (Photo in color)

[DRON12261]

Well, there is a high probability that this event will be continued in the future, as the participants were satisfied with it and show a desire to do more. And I hope you like these maps (I'm still baffled that we have SPEEDMAP for STRIFE, has anyone ever mapped for strife?). All participants will be interested to read feedback on their maps, so feel free to write both positive feedback and criticism.

[Winnkar]

Cool! I was glad to participate in this project! This is my first speedmap wad and my first participation in a community project!

[LadyMistDragon]

The Strife map did feel like the first section of something a bit larger admittedly, but glad to see something that's not a stupid troll map!

I'm wondering what would be your opinion about my map!

It was....fine I guess. The verticality is certainly superior to that of a 1994 map if nothing else.

Strife , Hexen , Heretic speed maps were created as an experiment . These 5 Maps are the first Speedmaps for me.
