This is more of a proof of concept than anything...
In this mutator mod, you must kill enemies to gain health. That doesn't sound too bad until you find out that there are no health pickups anywhere and your health is quickly withering away the whole time. Oh yeah, everything also hurts more. Your only real asset is that there's armor everywhere.
Weapons: -Fist: Alt-fire throws grenades
-Pistol: Alt-fire is slower but more accurate and slightly higher damage
-Shotgun: Alt-fire shoots a slug (same damage formula but only 1 hitscan)
-Super Shotgun: Alt Fire shoots two slugs (same damage formula but only 2 hitscans)
-Chaingun: Primary Fire shoots one bullet at a time (rather than bursts of two); alt-fire is twice as fast but much less accurate and has a spin-up/down delay
-Rocket Launcher: Alt-fire lobs grenades
-Plasma Rifle: Alt-fire is a flamethrower
-BFG9000: ROF decreased; Alt-fire is a BFG2704-like spray
Spoiler: Known Bugs
-Flamethrower sprites and sounds do not exist in DooM 1
-Grenade throw sound does not exist in DooM 1
Screenshots wouldn't really show much at this point, and neither would a video, so here's the download link:

Flamethrower is overpowered.Given it can hurt more enemies,make it so it's base damage is lower than the plasma's.Also,shotgun single shot is overpowered.

Shotgun slugs should have the exact same damage formula as the normal pellet shot. Unlike the pellets, it can't go "through" enemies. I will admit that I forgot to force the spread on the first shot... Are you by any chance going by the fact that it instagibs former humans and shotgun guys? Try attacking a higher-level monster with it.
Yes, the flamethrower is overpowered, despite the fact that you can easily kill yourself with it. I'm planning on fixing this in the next beta.
