ZDoom

Here's my toughts on the new video,im not sure about certain aspect of the re-design.

I dont mind some of the changes,but somehow i find the face/hair a bit more bland than the previous one.

Not sure if this is still Olive or another character,but if this is indeed Olive well i found her original face/hair better,it had more personality,it gave a more bad*ss vibe like she really meant business.

But here,she look not really serious,wich is why i said ''bland''.

That's all i have to say,the rest of this re-design doesnt bother me.

I found she looks less badass as well. Perhaps you should make her face back to original, and i desire nothing else about her.

IMO, It was better when it seemed controversial.

I'd much rather aim for blandly pleasant than controversial, at least for this project. I'll either replace the face with the old one for the next test vid, or maybe tweak the new one to look less meh

More importantly, here's a few new characters:

Skinny chick, chubby chick, lady in a dress, and a charming young man who just wants a quiet life.

Now this is just fine, thank you so much for the changing effort!

There is nothing about that update video (and the new characters) that I don't like. Especially that blonde fellow, he cuts a dashing figure in that purple suit of his.

You know,those sprites remind me a lot of the yeti from 'Ski Free' or Rare mascot 'Mr.Pants.

Yeti from Ski Free https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ji6IFDJFr8k

And Mr.Pants the mascot of Rare https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/It%27s_Mr._Pants

New stuff (just waiting for someone to catch the multiple references lol)

I'll have to include the skifree yeti as an easter egg somewhere, maybe as a halloween costume item similar to the radsuit

[EDIT] also, here's a bunch of new character pics

(still can't figure out DA/phpBB resizing so I'll just leave them as links so as not to clog up the page)

Faster, unshootable, noclipping and explosive turtle projectile... Eyup. Hopefully he'll get ended up in the revenant replacement, dude!

Anyway the reference... Guaranteed to blow your mind. Killer queen?

Close

He's based on/shamelessly ripped off of Yoshikage Kira from JJBA

He also look like Billy Idol.

And about those Deviantart drawings,yup they are great.

You managed to keep the style of the original but without the over exagerated body proportions,good job.

Beta is available for download! (technically it's still alpha but whatevs) Link is on the first page.
Summon "divinejudgement" to try out the zombieman replacement's alt death
also it'd be cool if I could get some feedback on what kind of thing people want to see in the game, just to give me a little direction lol

- Kissing attack is really weak except you grab the berserk. At least it wasn't so weak to against the zombiemans in the vanilla doom. Also it shows up first when starting the game, but at least i still get the ray gun.
- It's weird that only ray gun has OpenGL light effect, don't you think?
- Strawberry Smoothie's sprite doesn't exist in game.
- Love Buster and Positron Wand's love smoke is heavily blocking my sight... Have you ever thought to make them less visible?

Anyway about the feedback...
- I have no idea why you removed tons of weapons, though. I really love the explosive pops and pop launcher. Are you improving them right now? Hope so!
- I say leave the hatred as it is; they definitely describes why hatred is bad thing and determines to purify them all.
- I'd like to see more of the new clothes styles for the enemies! Yeah, graphics doesn't matter, but it would make the game more lively, i guess!
- How about ally system? When you purify someone, they'll eager to fight for you instead of being disappeared but not so often. Smart or not, they would be helpful.

So that's about it. Good luck and can't wait for the finished version!

Also HOLY SHOOT MAN. Is Divine Judgement suppose to be easter egg weapon or something? Now it become really bloodier.

Oh goodie, I love constructive criticism

- Kissing attack is really weak except you grab the berserk. At least it wasn't so weak to against the zombiemans in the vanilla doom. Also it shows up first when starting the game, but at least i still get the ray gun.
It's hard to tell at this point, but the kiss is actually a melee weapon. Up close it does more damage than the regular fist. The blown kiss is just for activating switches etc.

- It's weird that only ray gun has OpenGL light effect, don't you think?
Haven't bothered to tidy up all the effects yet, as I'm still adding the weapons

- Strawberry Smoothie's sprite doesn't exist in game.
...well shit, better fix that

- Love Buster and Positron Wand's love smoke is heavily blocking my sight... Have you ever thought to make them less visible?
That's definately getting fixed at some point (the code is borrowed from an alteration I made to the skulltag minigun)

- I have no idea why you removed tons of weapons, though. I really love the explosive pops and pop launcher. Are you improving them right now? Hope so!
You bet
- I say leave the hatred as it is; they definitely describes why hatred is bad thing and determines to purify them all.
I might be adding a few new types of hatred, but they'll be keeping their hamburger-helper-esque appearance

- I'd like to see more of the new clothes styles for the enemies! Yeah, graphics doesn't matter, but it would make the game more lively, i guess!
Each character will be fairly unique. I know it's just a graphical change but 1, it helps to tell the opponents apart in the heat of battle (or rather the heat of friendship, although that sounds kind of steamy)

- How about ally system? When you purify someone, they'll eager to fight for you instead of being disappeared but not so often. Smart or not, they would be helpful.
I've been wondering how to add that without making the game cluttered or too easy, maybe a random death state will do the trick?

Just like in real life, you'll be able to choose to use love or violence against your foes, and just like in real life, both will have consequences (if I can figure out how to implement it)
