Mala Petaka is fun to say and is also a fun GZDoom engine demo out right now! I believe Mala Petaka means catastrophe or calamity. The graphics and sound remind me of Megaman but in first person. It plays a lot like classic Doom with similar weapons and enemies sans any hitscanners. You can additionally jump, duck, and look up too. And there's alternate fires as well. But what makes this game stand out is the use of seamless portals. These are doorways to new areas where you can even fight enemies through. I hope as they develop this game they get pretty wild with them. I like the enemies so far, but I hope there are more bullet hell enemies like the boss, and I hope there is some more weapon variety in the future.
Right now the plasma gun dominates all other weapons. It does what the machine gun does but better and the shotgun feels like a last resort weapon. I have plenty of ideas for new weapons and how to make the existing weapons distinct from each other if anyone is ever curious!
