Hocusdoom RELEASED (/idgames pending)

[Disc Primitive]

That intro screen cracks me up when the zombie is loudly puking out a line of text Can't remember what it said...

And the amazing artwork was drawn using ONLY 16 colours. Really impressive art considering the constraints.

That atwork may look better on an old crt monitor, but indeed, ther're people over there that can make 16 color only draws looks like 256 color :O

That's actually what I love in c64 stuff, like this one http://c64pixels.com/main.php

Those greens are sure kicking!

I just started crying

One little nitpick: The hud's clock touches the heart graphics, I'd increase the gap between them for more aesthetics

This is a wet dream for a retro gamer like me.

Another fine example of superb Doom modding. My personal Cacoward for this year already goes to this one.

[spoone]

ahh yeah, monster bash. i do remember that game too, it had a child-friendly gores and violence!

anyway i think someone already managed to make a mod about it on wolfenstein 3d long years ago.

They tried but nothing came of it. No release. Only screens.

[Captain J]

ahh yes. i only watched those screenshots and didn't checked it's downloadable. anyway that's kinda sad to hear.

Wip of the Egypt levels from Episode 2:








Bumping my own thread :V

[Captain J]

as long it's all about author's post or progress, i think it is find to bump, including necro ones. and i say this one is really GOLDY SHINES!

[Yholl]

my hype is being multiplied halp it burns

[Tormentor667]

Impressive shots as usual, I like it

One suggestion though: I think the palm sprites that are in the map clash alot with the sprite style in the skybox. Especially that the palm trees are already heavily overused in other maps. I'd suggest picking up what you have in the skybox and use that as an actor instead for the map areas.

Hi!

First of all, thanks so much for trying to make a 3D Hocus Pocus game! I was a great fan of that game when I was a kid, I was very sad to see there wasn't any sequel, and I very much appreciate this initiative.
I have a problem while trying to launch Hocus Pocus Doom: I can't manage to open the game with gzdoom...i tried to add the directories of Hocus Pocus Doom in "gzdoom-username", but it didn't work... In fact, there are two .WAD files: "hocustxt" and "hocusmap"...and it is impossible to open any of the two with gzdoom.

Has anyone got an idea of what I am expected to do?

Thanks!

PS: I possess windows 7.
