[Request] Arcade-style monster packs for mods inspired by retro arcade games (GMOTA, Combined Arms, Treasure Tech, etc)

Post by Jareth247 »

As I've previously posted over on the r/DoomMods subreddit:
While there are some monster packs out there (the Iron Snail monster pack, for example), they tend to not mesh well in terms of aesthetic.

Basically, I just want 2D run-and-gun monsters in a 3D space, so nothing in the typical Doom style. Think Contra, Mega Man, Sonic the Hedgehog, Gunstar Heroes, etc, but for Doom. And yes, I know I just described Mala Peteka (definitely preordering that one when it goes on sale) and Snap the Sentinel.
For frame of reference, here's some images and videos of what I'm looking for in a monster pack:
Spoiler:
And if this isn't the right place for that, my apologies.

I know it's been two years with no replies, but aside from the Spawn SNES and Mario monster packs, I've yet to find anything that fits the bill.

Dumb question, but how would one go about making a custom monster pack?
