DOLPHIN'S DREAM
By Aluqah
Aluqah as certinally made some bizzare levels and this baby is nothing short of bizzare and my interest into Dolphins got me interested in this map. I'm really not that sure what a Dolphin dreams about, probably something like Submarines or a burning Palm tree on an Island. The action takes place on a bizzare floating metal structure in the sky with a unique green metal texture used throughout. This map demonstates some of the incredible features that Zdoom is capable of, it contains floor and ceiling teleporters, teleporters that require a key. The Sky texture which is used in a skybox continuasly changes colour to give the map a very bizzar feeling and if you fall into the sky you'll be of course instantly killed. Gameplay is excellent, with many monsters and challenging fights and among those monsters are some bizzare colorful Imps, red, green, blue and more. Most Doom2 monsters are present. Once you rach the end you must fight an Afrit, a floating pink Baron of Hell which has no legs and can shoot powerful fireballs at you and once you defeat it the exit is avaliable. The boss is somewhat easier than Afrits used in Scythe but no means a walk through the park too and it can be a pain in the ass to kill if you are not careful. I also like the use of floating enemies such as the Cacodemons, espeically in a sky level. The music in the map is excellent and very catchy and fits perfectly with the theme. A recomended download.
