/vr/ - Retro Games

Just beat the Japanese Community Project. Hellport or whatever the fuck it was called was pure suffering. Nanka’s levels were the best of the best. My Fav was such a pleasant gem. Tooooooasty is a maniac. Great wad with the occasional low point. 7.5/10

so in the last thread i mentioned this japanese community project and some people got really excited, and talked about how jp fps scene is quite a bit different

i'm going to shill this shit again. this is an absolutely delightful and creative wad, i've been completely surprised out of nowhere by aspects of the gameplay and level design many times in the first half. really just unusual stuff over and over.

highly recommended

ps always make sure to check the map near the end of a level, as there is often writing and images and other neat stuff. also, definitely get all secrets, they have great stuff. unfortunately some are a bit annoying to find (a few levels had many and they were logical imo, but sometimes there's just a shitload of wallhumping).

someone mentioned this wad, the japanese community wad, some threads ago, and i'm playing it right now. thank you so much anon, this mapset is really delightful. (note it's from 2016 and played with complevel 2!). quite unusual too. also i'm using the hud and have slowly learned their numeric character set, though there have been some funny moments of "oh shit less health than i realized" and "oh shit that medikit was wasted".

relatedly, like 2048, it's a bunch of small maps. i think i really enjoy these small focused mapsets with many contrasting styles. desu,.sunlust is mostly like that for me too, though there are exceptions in sunlust of course, and the length is still greater.

i like pistol start single segment runs, but am not that good, so 2048 was actually quite perfect for me. even black crest (map 29), my favorite of the set =)

How big is the Japanese Doom community?

Playing JPCP nosaves with Final Coomer. At level 11 currently, so far feels good, maps are exactly the right length, like in Doom 2 - not too short, but not a chore to replay if you die near the end.
