ZDoom

I love brutalism! Now you're making me want to try my own take on it.

I wanted a few maps to take on brutalist architecture, but without the bland colors, in a map contest that I was trying to author (unfortunately, I discovered that I didn't know everything that I wanted in there, or how to correctly portray what I wanted to happen).

These look amazing!

The architecture itself somehow looks like a spider. Or maybe walking factory even. Heh.

Test video for lightning and rain SFX:

Having rain play through mostly a single channel at a time is too weird

That's really nice and atmospheric. What music is that in the background? It sounds vaguely familiar.

GZDoom is gonna flip me the bird soon...

It sounds vaguely similar to Perfect Dark's Chicago Stealth track, so that's understandable.

A couple of those lightning bolts were upside down... XD

Anyway, the map structure combined with the atmosphere and music reminds me of Mechadon's mapping style, and some of the more beautiful maps I've seen in DUMP 2.

Looks like a bunker that could block anything but moon's falling!

throw in a bunch of neon signs, and power lines everywhere and you have the perfect cyberpunk map.

Should brightmap those lights
Also, amazing how much SSAO can add depth and detail to otherwise flat scenes

Remmirath: these keep getting better and better! Out of curiosity, can you post 2 identical scenes, with and without SSAO? I'm just curious to see what they look like without post processing.

And are you using customized SSAO settings? Those kind of look stronger than GZDoom's defaults.

Just about perfect targeting for projectiles affected by gravity. Here, the imp fireballs have a gravity of 0.125, resulting in a very flat arc over this long distance.
