"Ann, are you feeling alright?" So funny thing about that, you are probably the third person to ask me in the past month. (The frank answer is no. I've been dealing with some Changes the past few months and it has been far harder to live through than I expected when I read about what to expect on paper. I'm getting by. I still enjoy things days one day at a time. But I'm definitely not "okay" and have no idea if/when I will be. ) -- Oh nooooo, the map I spent *most* of my time on is the one that broke! Must of have some last minute change I made to the zscript that I forgot about? In short, the player was meant to spawn with a weapon with deliberately limited ammo. They can shoot things. There's a couple of different endings depending on what was or wasn't shot, and a cross-map bonus with Rabbit Flow for doing a very specific series of events across two runs of 2x before going back to play the other one. The trail of snakes wasn't just a gimmick, but was meant to indicate that 1: they chain-react if shot 2: The weird screens can be destroyed 3: Either will kill you if you stand too close. The map was originally meant to be just 2 minutes long, but between adding in the multi-play gimmick and the script running kinda long, it ended up being closer to 5 minutes per run.

OMG RAMPerk Elmwood's crazy brain coming through again. 2 maps in a row where David's confused hearing himself in the map :XD Certainly a different tone from Elmwood's 2023 RAMP submission. Anyone trying that map after this year's is going to be all 😰

I lucked out on the Carmen Sandiego map. Got hit by the first archville and knocked up onto the platform with the blue key which allowed me to beeline for the exit. So I skipped more than half the map. 😃

Author of map 106 here. This might come as a surprise, but this is only my second map, and first one released. And the original idea for the map was way longer, with the dropship being halfway of the map. Later you were supposed to have a debriefing on a space ship, get a permanent upgrade, and then drop into a slaughter scenario, helldivers-style. As far as the map itself, the objectives being cut off, are an annoyance that are caused by settings - i would love to deploy a fix for that somehow. The most painful part was, that the objectives mentioned when the map starts to be timed - so you wouldn't know that you can no longer hunt for the remaining secrets. You are right about grammar issues related to "beacon enroute" - though to be fair, in original plan the beacon was supposed to drop from the sky, to lure the player into that particular location. You can even see that the beacon is in a separate square sector - it was supposed to be portals, to give visuals of a falling beacon, and then it opening... Nevertheless, should have adjusted the text anyway :). For the custom enemies, I used my Marksman Zombie that i have in my replacer mod - they are aggressive, and their reaction to being shot is shoot back. Though they are fairly inaccurate against mobile targets. The turrets I made specifically for the map, there are two variants - the chaingun turret that is hostile and the chainshotgun turret, that is on the dropship. I also made custom AI for them, to be extra aggressive and opportunistic. All in all, i'm happy with how the map plays, and I am glad you liked it.

wow ! RAMPERKY was a great map!! whoever made that truly pulled RAMP2024 together for me. truly it is the best doom wad i have ever seen in my existence. it definitely wouldn't be something I'd describe as "aggressively mid". if anyone were to say that i think i might just blow my brains out all over this comment section lol

RAMPERK incomprehensibility: honestly I don't see much difference from terry wads from the 90's and early 2000's, and in internet culture at large it's not like The hamster dance, Charlie the unicorn or Crazy Frog made any more sense then Skibidi toilet, ect.

no, i disagree. memes now - skibidi toilet, alpha males, soyjaks etc - have nihilism and depravity that you didn't see in the older internet memes. they reflect and amplify the political chaos around them, its very bad. older mainstream memes were harmless

One of my earliest gaming memories was getting a red boxed copy of a red shareware CD Disc that I think was named "200 Crazy Games". I feel like I've been kinda losing it since then because I've seen absolutely no proof that the disc ever actually existed. I can't find my copy anymore, the PC I had back then is long gone lost in some self-storage and probably destroyed, and any time I try to search the web for it I can't find anything with a similar name and package. 2000 games? Sure. Red disc? Yup. 200? Nope I mostly remember it because there was a driving game on it I liked when I normally have little fondness for traditional car racing games, and I remember there was a graphic-adventure on it that was running at the wrong speed so the first thing I did was leave the bedroom, move at incredible speed, fall through a crack in the floor and die horribly with a bright flash and I remember getting so scared that I turned off the entire PC.

Would reckon maps like Ramperk are the Z-Gen Terry wads; one or two videos ago was also one (arguably worse). Personally I do think they have more merit than the absolute unplayable crap that came out in the 90s and a shitmap twice in the entirety of the project is fine. I could follow the majority of this and I probably shouldn't say TOO much considering I've been rocking this Arisa grin avatar since ages past 😂........ having said that, it kind of lost its way around the labs and the plasma sections where it was just a buttload of monsters (pun intended). Highly appreciate you did the intro though David, that just shows you're in for a joke as well. As for the final map, that's based on a board and/or video game that's somewhat similar isn't it? I can't find it right now but I don't the premise of moving squares around is entirely original. To implement that in a DOOM map and make it reasonably playable is amazing though.
