Reposting from my other reply: There is strafe actually, even two ways of doing it, using original DOS bindings: <
and >
or alt
+ left/right arrow
. For me the easiest way to do it without strafe is just to move forward a bit, then go back and wait for dudes to come in from the right. Dealing with imps is really hard since their fireballs are sped up significantly. I tried a bit more and it seems it’s possible to actually beat this level properly. You can get other weapons and powerups. It’s just really hard with speed mode and nightmare difficulty.
Honestly, the easiest way is to move forward a bit. The imps can’t hit you, and the grunts will come toward you, so it becomes a shooting gallery instead of you being in a bullet hell.
The awkward controls make it unfair.
… But then, IDKFA works
Which MEANS
An AI could totally cheat this.
An AI would play this better than any human.
But could it be made to differentiate a human from an AI?
I love it, but can’t get the keyboard to display on mobile
It didn’t work on chrome for me, but does on Firefox.
I just tapped it and it showed one
Works in Safari
Too many imps in the center square. Too easy to just get ganged with fireballs. I found that I needed to hang out in the hallway and get the marines that were coming in.
I get that this is a joke project. But, if you were to reduce the difficulty to some common denominator, it could actually be a viable CAPTCHA.
It is Nightmare difficulty, on a hidden level as well.
No strafe. Ughhh
Not only nightmare, it’s also -fast

doom without sidestep? no thanks
It’s a bit of a secret feature, but there is strafe actually, even two ways of doing it, using original DOS bindings: <

I am on mobile but will try on computer
Why does it have to be on a hard level with just a pistol, tho? lol
I beat it by kiting some of the shotgunners to come past the imps. 3 Easy kills.
Had to bait them into coming towards me, many deaths before I managed tho. Still better than most captchas
Idk why you say i would need patience. I cleared it under 5 seconds. Maybe i had good RNG.
RNG in doom, that’s illegal :D
Is there any strategy for this level apart from kiting the enemies into your line of sight while you are shielded from the centre cube? Maybe the WAD could be tweaked. Cool project though!
One fun and moderately easy strategy is running into forward tunnel all the way down into the pit, killing a sergeant for a shotgun, running through acid into the room with health and pickups on the left, and then killing 2 more imps.
This is fucking amazing
I tried going straight, but after a while I noticed there’s actually an invisible pinky over there.
Also is the sound too high, or is it just me not rememberering right?
The sounds are completely different and I’m not sure where they’re sourced from.
Well I think I’m a robot. Couldn’t do the things that it’s asking me to do. So I guess I’m a robot. Beeboo beeboo boop beeboo beeboo bee boop.
Took me 2 tries, advanced a bit, retreated and waited for the dudes to walk into my line of pistol fire
This is the way. You only need 3 kills, so there’s no need to deal with the caged grunts in any way whatsoever.
what a chimera 😰

Near impossible on my tiny phone haha

The hit boxes appear to be huge. I got it just by turning and shooting from the starting position.
Fun, but a relatively simple script could likely be developed to solve these.

Yeah, I expected to have to do more than tap the fire button.

If you shoot from cover, some come to find you. Back into corner and rapid fire, not a great plan, but got it on about 6th try.

It’s more that my phone is quite literally tiny. 3" screen, 480x854
