 Dark Tide by Lutz bay-bay. Download at ftp.fu-berlin.de/pc/games/idgames/newstuff/dt-lutz.zipRequires The Return resources.
This sexy looking new castle map by OG mapper Christopher Lutz is recommended for ZDoom ports, though apparently with PrBoom+ on cl9 and with mouselook/crosshair enabled it does just fine. I’m at work or I’d be playing this right now, but you on the other hand have no excuse. So gets to stepping and download now or leave your Doomer badges right here on my desk on your way out. You’re welcome. |

Oh hell yeah! Saw some early screenshots of this a long time ago. Can't wait to stare at all of this eye sugar!

There is something really charming about castle maps with a dark blue DWANGO looking sky.

I've been excited about this map ever since you posted your early screenshots of it. A magnificent work of art this map is! You're gonna need a lot of help in the gameplay department though. It just doesn't flow well. You've got way too many monsters. There's so much eye sugar that I just want to have a look at it, but all of the combat sequences stretch way too long. The monsters just become a nuisance. In my playthrough it took me almost 4 and a half minutes plugging away at everything in the courtyard before I even entered the first room in the castle.
Every location where there is a weapon, you're surrounded with monsters by which the given weapon is least effective with. The super shotgun room is a chore with all the hell barons and suspended cyberdemon. The plasma gun is physically blocked by a hell baron, the rocket launcher is in a room full of sniping hitscanners, etc etc.

I just finished Hellscape recently, and it reminded me of just how good of a mapper Lutz is. I'm sure that this will be great as well.
