This was requested a few times so I thought I'd put together a video on the aesthetics of Doom and how to make a good-looking map in the Doom engine. Much of the focus will be on Boom and Boom-adjacent styling as that is what I usually make myself, but everything in the video should apply to UDMF or Vanilla mapping as well.
