Hey, It's my map!
I'm gonna provide developer commentary when i feel like it.
I didn't get anyone elese to playtest it so it'll be interesting to see the perspective of someone who's never seen the map before.
- 16:33: glad the distinct wall was obvious enough
- 16:52: that's a really cool coincidence. I was play testing on different settings and I didn't intend for this at all.
- 17:31: Oh my god, i left jump on and didn't think of jumping there. This still works, i guess. The intended way to get there was a hidden wall around a corner.
- 17:56: yes, did you not see the spider mastermind in the thumbnail?
- 18:32: there's a secret somewhere around here, where i took the classic John Romero approach and made a random wall with a slightly different texture interactible.
- 19:10: it feels good the be compliment on a slight detail like that :)
- 19:21: good, you went the easier way first.
- 19:37: this room's fun. The intended strat is to run head first to grab all the rockets, then shoot all the demon's down with said rockets from the previous room. And it looks like you got the idea somewhat.
- 20:21: i think it's pretty neat how the hell area has cacos and barons, while the temple has pain elementals and knights. The colors match up.
- 21:03: the only mancubus in the level. Also, yeah there are monsters, the bonus isn't gonna be free.
- so the intended way to deal with the cyberdemon was to grab the invincibility and berserk, then wail on him until the invincibility runs out. Then play ring around the rosy with it in the pillar room while shooting it with rockets. If you don't kill it, you'll have to deal with in on the way out, and as of writing this, you haven't got there yet.
- in hindsight, it pretty smart for you to activate the room with the rockets then go the other way and wait for them to infight each other.
- 25:25: that's the strat i developed for it.
- 26:11: here it comes.
- 26:39: there's some goddies that unlock in that intersection room after you pick up one of the keys that you didn't notice. Too bad.
- 28:24: this is one of my favorite rooms just beacuse of how the lost souls rise out of the lava.
- 29:08: i knew it would bite you in the butt later.
- also, the soul sphere opens after the red key and the mega sphere afeter the yellow key.
- 29:41: so i would have loved for the level to end when you kill the spider mastermind but unfortunately, I'm stupid. So instead, i made her sit in a key so that would basically need to kill her to open the door to the exit.
- 30:25: :) I'm gald you enjoyed it. I accualy made that map a little after finding your channel and ramp 2023 ended. I haven't really made any more maps since then, so my skills are a bit rusty. I also just don't have the inspiration to build any maps right now. I hope I'll have and idea for when ramp 2025 comes around.
There are some really awesome levels coming together for this RAMP! I'm trying *so hard* to hold off playing them until the project is complete! :D
I'm *highly* dubious that I'm going to be up to the challenge of Dubious! What a magnificent looking level.... but what an arsekicker!
A few notes on Archibold's Tower....
You missed a secret directly behind you in the starting room... I placed a chainsaw secret just for you! :P
Both the purple brick texture and the black brick textures are my own. The black brick texture was specifically for Do Demon's Dream of Beheaded Bunnies and has been used in that megawad, but the purple one I've only used in Archibold's tower so far.
The resurrecting Chaingunners are 100% archvile trickery.... it was a trap I had been thinking about since starting work on DDDOBB, but couldn't figure out... then one of the levels in Clippy's Crate Expectations gave me the clue as to how to get it to all work, so I thought I'd finally use the trap in Archibold's Tower.... I genuinely didn't even *think* of using ZScript to accomplish that. :O
The multiplyer part of your Health orbs was an absolutely awesome feature, but I felt it would unbalance the "Do I use the orbs to heal, or do I save them to buy weapons" factor.
You found Gizmo, Archibold's pet Cacodemon. Sparky, his skull, was in the little cave, which has the switch that opens the 2nd downstairs portal to Archibold's home... the switch in the cell like area... has a 2nd switch on the back!
That played exactly as I was hoping it would for someone playing blind! I'm so glad the crash wasn't caused by the map... I *did* have a crash or two *very* early in the build and spent a lot of effort to fix it, so that I could actually build 90% of the level... and I've been playtesting it in the snapshot a lot to verify that it all worked... it's always worked in every playtest of the snapshot for me, so I felt my heart and stomach lurch when that happened!
22:15 Those Cyberdemon quips quacked me up. 😄
David, could you put the chapter timestamps for each level onto the videos please? 🙏🏻
I knew I missed one spot lol
Are these going to be released daily, if you realistically can? I started watching with last years ramp that turned into over 300 maps lol
38:50 OMG THAT'S ADORABUBBLE
That first map, that setup screams just punch the air and let them infight. Remember that if you hurt the barons they won’t infight immediately with the cyber and will keep attacking you until their step count runs down, but if you wake them up without causing any damage, the first time the cyber fires it will aggro all of them. Then you can just leave the room with all your bfg cells ready to clean up the outside a bit and give you some real breathing room.
It's hard to keep up with all the RAMP playthrough videos, but I'm trying to catch up. :)
I really liked the scripted one with the NPCs. You mentioned a tutorial about the scripting. I think I saw it and thought it was a great idea. Makros made a cool map with it. :)
Also, I always shop at Imp Mart. They have a sale on fireballs. They're literally flying off the shelves! :D
Ooooooooh so that's why I couldn't get big monster to take my stairs. It wasn't about height! The steps weren't deep enough.
I'm actually learning stuff for my future maps from this commentary!

Watching him attempt to play that was excruciating 😂
Oh, does the community make the scenery for the train ride? Or is the whole hub community made?
It's sad how much suffering this bunny must go through....
