Description : After doing a couple of levels for vanilla, I
wanted to give it a crack at making one for a
more advanced engine. At the same time, I wasn't
feeling inspired to try and create a new map
design so I remade my first level, Blaze, from
the scratch on ZDoom format.
Even though this version of Blaze is short like
the previous ones, I spent quite some time on
it due to learning how to use an editor other
than Doom Builder 2 (SLADE) and adapting to this
then new map-making format.
I remember the feeling of accomplishment I got
when I managed to change the level title on the
automap, and also when switching the music so
that I wouldn't have to make players listen to
Running from Evil for the zillionth time.
Something else that was very important was the
addition of swimmable sectors, which would become
prevalent in my next map, Bloody Sunday.
Other than the technical aspects, though, I think
the gameplay and design aren't really much of an
upgrade over the vanilla versions at all. This
was clearly an experiment, that opened the path
for brighter future wickedness.
