testing random doom wads,
I found this one in my downloads but I don't actually remember downloading it. There was no readme file and no info at all so I have no idea who made it. How many Doom wads out there are titled "armageddon" ? hehh
well at first my first impression as soon as I started the first level was "oh this is one of those Terry wads I musta link-followed from Aquarius199's videos so I turned down the volume in prep for some unexpected ear-rape audio-visual junkfoodtvsmutcontent typical of the end-point for such wads, but to my surprise the levels kept progressing for reals. Pretty sure this is an early demo or something, there seem to be some incomplete line defs and stuff, things not working exactly right, so i nocipped around a bit, but gave the whole design the benefit of the doubt. Despite the lack of detail this was actually fun to play through,

wads like this are a die a dozen from the 90's and early 2000's, shitty blocky levels that look less like actual places than the original doom , I mean just lazily slapped together sectors in Doom Builder, not much in the of detail and background aesthetic, (the stuff that's there for atmosphere, like windows showing skyboxes, outdoor areas just for show, I dunno I like that kinda stuff, you can see a lot of it in a previous Doom mod I previewed called "Infinite Wilderness 2 " see all the open areas far away, the player isn't always meant to explore them, they just give the area a more open outdoor mysterious immersive feeling. Stuff like that is important, this wad here feels very 90's-ish but it was fun.
