Laura Beyer's Doom w/ 3D spatial sound in GZDoom 🎧 (OpenAL Soft HRTF audio) MOST OBSCURE ADD-ON?
4Use headphones only with any virtual surround features turned off. Best HRTF effect at 2:26. Sorry about the filtering; it was for video playback, I swear.

This is Laura Beyer's Doom with OpenAL Soft's HRTF in GZDoom. Laura Beyer and her $20 episode are perhaps the most obscure footnotes in all of Doom's history, but they did in fact exist. Several notable PWADs ranging from Nukemine to Eternal motherfucking Doom took sound effects directly from this abomination. Surely that should be enough to warrant a page, Doom Wiki editors?
Basically, in 1994, a bunch of Canadians decided to cash in on the newfound Doom mapping craze by hiring two guys (Kody Zander and Darryl Dewald) to shit out the worst FPS levels imaginable. It wasn't enough to desecrate every design principle John Romero and Sandy Petersen stood for, though. No, they also had to steal a bunch of licensed MIDIs and make digitized sprites out of some dude in overalls and literal action figures to replace the enemies. While the finished product probably sold like 2 copies, the name "Laura Beyer" wasn't whispered in legends until a single "haunted house" demo filled with advertisements was uploaded to the internet. Between the incomprehensible level design (this demo map makes the MOST sense of the episode) and the digitized toys, this episode feels like it was made by 9-year olds. The fact that it was made by two grown men is very, very sad.
...Anybody else get Dilbert3 vibes from Doomguy's new voice samples?
