Awesome 40... working on it as I type this, I'll finish it today.

40 did the bulk of the mapping after my scrap of a start area, I’ve just added gameplay and changed a few textures. Submitted to 40 for approval, I’ll private message you a copy @phobus !

I’ll have time to play the rest tomorrow and make demos if I can.

Thanks for playing gaspe - I see 40oz moved the health and ammo around for my version, possibly making the latter more generous. I couldn't tell from your play through if the berserk secret is still activated by pressing on it or now comes down when the AV is triggered, but both work for me. Your cautious play seems to have been in response to the atmosphere and lower power weapon available, which felt like a good result for me.

Great job all, mad props to 40oz especially. Special thanks to joe-ilya and @phobus for busting theirs out in a short time period. MegaPancakeStrategist you know how much I love your map and style, you always have my eternal gratitude. Playing through these now!

First time seeing joe's map, pretty good for a quick effort. I wasn't bothered as such by the normal Doomy textured beginning as by the end it gives the impression of transporting to the alien place that the texture set implies... speaking of implies those fucken imps fucked me at the end haha. Phobus' map was a tricky little cunt, I've never been bitten by spectres so much in my Doom life. Fun map. Cupcakes' I've played a million times so I just action manned myself through the map, still love it Sarge! Beacon by 40 was a first time playthrough and a class map, even though I was a dumb cunt who missed a switch and got lost for nearly 5 minutes. Map06 I've played in it's early stage so I'll give it another run later.

You were under the pump this month 40oz  and I didn't think you were going to make it, but you managed to pull it all off and deliver another quick, fun and cohesive set of maps.

Wow nnnvork your first attempt was really really good!

People see a circle. People assume it’s a Circle of Death remake. I scratch my head wondering if circles were only invented with that map and it’s the only time some people have seen a circle in their life. I heh.

Thanks for more demos and reviews peoples! 

In Map05 I had just a scrap which was the starting area. I gave it to 40 in the case of him being able to do something with it as submissions were dry at that point. Then on my birthday I harassed him to make me one of his world famous birthday maps from it. He made the rest of the layout and architecture, added two Hell knights, the demons at the ssg trap and the arachnatron setup and said here, ya cunty cunt, now go and detail it. So I added gameplay and traps, that wonderful SP_CUNT1 texture at the chaingun pickup, changed around some textures and added more Giger. Then supercupcaketactics added some lovely lighting and more details to the bare spots while 40 finished it off with that moody lightning in the rev pit trap. Thus was born Forty and 2, that being 40oz & two other mappers, a small name play on the Tool song Forty-Six & 2. A true collaboration that is most parts 40 although it has my name on it and a wonderful backstory that takes longer to read than playing the map itself. Thanks for playing!

It works fine for me using Crispy Doom 4.3.

EDIT: That was the alpha version. Something is whack on the new one and the only guess I have for why is the node builder I used being ZDBSP, but that doesn't explain why it worked fine before.

Thanks @gaspe, Aisleen, nnnvork, and Killer5 for your playthroughs

Sorry you don't dig circles, gaspe. I don't do squares. All of these maps were last minute submissions (including mine) except for supercupcaketactics' MAP03, so its good news people liked it at all. I don't believe my maps here to be my best work either. Maybe you Doomers could help next time???

Glad to hear my map has gone down well with those who've made it that far. Not bad for a speed map built on a foundation of realising I was running out of time.

I'll have more time this month. I'm good to do better for #5!

Aisleen I finally took a look at it in SLADE and for some reason the REJECT and BLOCKMAP in my map was moved under MAP04 when going from the alpha version to the final....

I fixed that so here's a link: Xenomorph Base FIXED
