Necropolis is my first major project done in the idTech engine and can be considered a total conversion mod that will hopefully be released stand-alone when it's finished, but for now it's just a mod. It has all-original weapons, new cast of enemies, a gripping story, and most prevalent of all is its conversion of Doom from a run-n-gun to a gritty first-person brawler. Of course this is just a teaser and it has none of those at the moment, and instead I plopped a player into a somewhat sandboxy city with respawning enemies and a few weapons to beat the crap outta them with, just to give a taste as to what the gameplay will be like. I won't be making any empty promises here, I've been working diligently at this project for quite some time now and the only thing I need at this point to get the game really going are voice actors, with all of the weapons and enemy AI totally scripted and plot completely written out and the only thing left to do is map design. Of course, all credits are due to their respective authors for contributing to the mod's resources and can be found in the mod's CREDITS file.
