Here’s a cool way to play Doom that was suggested to me by a friend: combine the DoomRL Arsenal with Oblige to create DoomRL 3D! Can’t believe I didn’t think to do this before, seems like such an obvious idea. It’s a whole lot of fun too!
Whenever I die I like to start over and generate a whole new wad to get that authentic roguelike experience.
i don’t think i know nearly enough about doomrl to know wtf any of the items or weapons are, which put a minor damper on this
also oblige really really likes to generate the same couple archetypes over and over
but this was a pretty entertaining way to waste two hours haha
holy jesus tits i take it all back
oblige 6 is fucking incredible
i was erroneously using 4 which is total baby garbage; 6 actually creates things that look like (perhaps slightly unfinished or slightly unfair) levels
i kinda want to get into hacking on this thing unngh
(also i don’t know why but i can’t convince zdoom to show the hud pictured above so i never know what armor i’m even wearing or what weapon i have out)
i fucking love randomly-generated… “art” though for real
the whole idea is fascinating
i really want to get clio off the ground and turn it into a flora roguelike, with random items and enemies and story and puzzles even
