For that matter, what if Heretic was a girl? 💁🏻‍♀️ (Or left-handed?)
Although separate from my female Hexen project, they're of course related and part of a single overarching mission encompassing both: and now both are complete!

What if Hexen was a girl? 💁🏻‍♀️ An on-and-off project of mine for the past few years, and focused on to release it [almost] in time for Hexen's 30th anniversary: and now complete! I redesigned and redrew the playable characters, and weapons that have visible hands.

For May, I wanted to dip into the classic Doom mods and WADs well once more.

I covered the classic RTC-3057, a ZDoom-powered mod that made Doom feel more like a horror game similar to System Shock.

Now I kinda want a spiritual successor to this...

RTC-3057 for Doom: Doom with a tinge of survival horror. - You Found a Secret Area!
RTC-3057 was one of those Doom mods making use of some the new features ZDoom brought. And it does those damn well.

Jeffrey's one of my long-standing Patreon members. A few years back he commissioned me for the soundtrack to this mapset, and I still consider it among my best Doom-MIDI work.

Would love to see more work from him, honestly! The mapset is lusciously detailed and paced wonderfully.
Did you know that I made a 6-map DOOM WAD?

It's called Escalation Titan, and can be found on doomworld [link below] or in DOOM + DOOM II Mods

It also features original music by legendary composer, James "Jimmy" Paddock @jamespaddock.bsky.social

Work on the Jenesis remake project is going well. This map makes a heap of new additions to a previously VERY short introductory map to the set's Hell episode.

Really wanted to amp up the feel of "oshit I'm in HELL hell" here.

Faithless uses too many ZDoom-exclusive features to ever work on the KEX port, unfortunately.

Thanks for playing though :)

If you ever want to get into playing Doom mods and don't know where to begin, my advice is almost always the same, minus one letter changing in the engine's name.

A: Download the latest UZDoom version.

B: Check out the past few years of Cacowards.

Really happy to see Below The Gaudy Goblin - the first real addon for Hedon - getting a gold award. A fantastic addition to a deeply underrated game.

Also I knew that Blues Brothers 2025 would be a winner. Such a good, smart twist on classic Doom.

And Faithless for Heretic is finally nearly done.
