ZDoom

Yeah, looking back now. The enemies could have been toned down a lot more. I think throughout the mod's development, I did tweak the health of all the enemies quite a bit. I suppose making the enemies use super-fast projectile attacks in place of hitscan attacks would have been better. At least the Cowboy Lizard was a step in the right direction.

it's still a lot of fun to play though, and i actually liked how many guns there were in the mod, even though it probably would've been smarter to have less guns that are more useful overall (the magazine sizes are a bit too thin and they're often very inaccurate).

A 3 weapon slot system like some of the more recent Doom mods have could have been a great way to deal with the large weapon list. The only mods I can think of at the top of my head was that recent Rainbow 6 mod and one of Wildweasel's mods (The Greatest Hits or something?).

i would probably suggest it at least 6 or 7, mirroring how many guns you have in Doom. DRLA has a 6 weapon slot system, and i feel it was a good balance that filled enough niches for each of the classes, given the amount of guns available in there.

Sorry. I know I kinda drove that idea; I just missed how it was the only gun from The Exterminator that had been cut; I liked it there (despite its code being a little broken in the player's favor).

Perhaps you're thinking of wildweasel's Nazis(!) mod? Because I'm actually the one who designed that weapon slot system. Had I known you'd want to use it, too, I could have ported it to Lizard Squad.

I liked the assault shotgun too, haha. I just think it was added in a little too late in the mod's life.

I haven't realized that assault shotgun was actually from the oldest version of of the mod. Well, that's good to know. I really loved that gun in game!

And what i expecting right now is reviving more weapons and enemies from the older mods you made. Like Lizard war weapons.

I'd rather not bring those guns back ! If you guys thought some of the guns here looked bad, those guns in Lizard War were god-awful. The weapons and enemy sprites in ICD-Lizard were pretty craptacular too. Also, there were twice as many weapons in that than in Lizard Squad.

I downloaded it to record a video and I did not only laughed my ass off with the hand drawn graphics mixed with Havoc's voice but I found it really nice to play. Then I realized that there is a texture pack and now I'll have to record a new one.

I always find it really cool and amusing to see other people's gameplay videos of my mods. I'm glad you enjoyed it! I can't wait for you to play it with the texture pack. Just wait till you see MAP31 and MAP32 again lol.

I bet MAP32 is going to be textured as Pokestein 3D, but i got no idea about the icon of sin textures. It could be the supercomputer or ultimate evil... Who knows?

Love the mod so much. Even though I never heard of it until now. And from what I see, this thread is quite old. )
Which means I should, but didn't. Anyway. Love the cartoon style and the fact that you took some things from the Metal Slug. )
Bravo.
I will look forward to it buddy.

That's pretty much it. Also, MAP31 and MAP32 are the only maps in Doom 2 where you could see the most changed textures. I didn't change the Icon of Sin textures. I, too, am stumped as to what I would change it to.

A bit late to the party as well, but I love your mod. So here's a short animated loop I just created inspired by it http://i.imgur.com/YiuZ0Rs.gif

Keep it up!

That was really neat. I liked it! I'm glad you enjoyed my mod. I gotta ask though, what happened to his tail though, did a dog bite it off or something ?

Oh shoot... Uhm, imagine like how drag queens, "tuck". Yeah, he's wearing pants and doing that with their tail. ;^)

Hiding your tail under the pants are doing tactically fine, huh. Anyway nice animation!
