I'm not sure what you mean. After you fall down the vent, you can just crawl back through it the other way and you'll get back to the cafeteria or the engine room access.

This is made strictly for software mode, it doesn't use any OpenGL features and I've never even tried launching it that way.

I don't see the HoM effect but unfortunately there's a lot of places where my poor map editing causes issues. One example is the cafeteria area, where enemies will sometimes be invisible when viewed through the doorway.

Wow, this really should be a thing. I can't believe how hacky my solution is, just because I wanted to add the slight vertical offset when looking up and down from dark forces!

Yup! The swaying and offsets in this was done using the GunOffset stuff in ACS. It doesn't not break weapons that are coded properly. The same way any feature in ZDoom will not break if used properly. I still think it should be added officially...

Just played a bit and, having the player fight up to three gun wielding opponents with nothing but a weak melee weapon right at the start is just bad design.

The file is gone. PLEASE, use dropbox, or some serious filesharing.

Sharing files on services, which delete the file after a while is just useless...

since it only has only one map and takes back to the beginning when it's cleared, so i'm sure it's not finished.

EDIT: already knew it, of course it is demo.

The download link was http://www.filedropper.com/fortunesrundemo and the filename is FortunesRun_Demo.wad. Maybe... maybe there's a hint in these names? :P

Can anyone, who downloaded this before, reupload the file somewhere else? The link on filedropper is dead.
