Description : Oops... All-Ghosts! is a small pack of mostly short levels, all of which
utilise the "all-ghosts" glitch in some capacity. The idea started as a
community project map which was on the wrong complevel (MAP02 in this pack).
The goal was to try and use the glitch in interesting ways and to create
maps with a completely different gameplay feel to them.
Because "ghosts" are involved and the build time was around Halloween, the maps
predominantly feature ambient/unsettling music, with some spooky map concepts
for good measure. There is a degree of mystery and puzzle-solving to most
of the maps, and exploration and trying new things is encouraged.
The pack is primarily designed for single play but has co-op available; the co-op
elements have been tested on Woof: several maps have points of no return and
if a player attempts to respawn after triggering the glitch, Woof will crash.
Deathmatch is also available on all maps, but is untested. MAP23 onwards should be
considered secret/bonus maps, and are largely tribute maps to dead friends.
DSDA-Doom 0.28.1 or higher is the intended port to play this pack, but any port
that supports UMAPINFO should suffice. The visual glitches are designed for OpenGL
graphics; software mode will produce different visual glitches and unintentional HOMs.
Ultra-Violence is the expected difficulty, but this is irrelevant in most cases.
Note: There are no intentionally aggressive visuals but some of the glitches can
occasionally result in rather noisy/flashy visuals; player discretion is advised.
