Who needs textures in Doom maps anyway? You can do a lot more with less.

A screenshot from Doom 2, of a map in progress.
All of the textures are flat colours, mostly yellow, brown, and orange on a starry sky and black ground. The scene is reminiscent of a pyramid or a temple hiding among the natural rocks and dunes.

A screenshot of a Doom 2 Megawad DIY, MAP06: Not Very Cash Money, by me.
Doomguy smiles as he stands on large stacks of large banknotes leading towards a colourful table with an odd roulette-like structure in the middle.

In Deer Time - Map #2 - Chameleon
This will be a secret map purely because it's just another map that I made earlier this year repurposed, and it's the only secret map I will be showing off here.

My first post to BlueSky - better make it a good one! 😨

I'm currently playing through "Doom 2 in Rural Only" - a 33 map MegaWad made by various members of the Doom community.

Being someone who grew up on a farm, it really drew me in right away!

Here's map 5:

I've released the BTSX E1 and E2 textures for reuse: www.doomworld.com/forum/topic/...

These were mostly made between 2008-2014, with a handful of later additions. It's a pretty sizable collection and I'm excited to see what people will do with them!

A quiet park lit by starlight. Short, mostly easy as hell and kinda just exists for the vibes.

made for @synami.bsky.social 's Speedmapping Sessions 01: Lunar Lights.

#doom

a walkway at night. in the distance, towering stars rise above the sea, on your left, brown stone pillars support lamps. on your right, light pours out of transparent glass.

a park railing, with a star towering beyond the trees and lampposts

an SSG sits among a star imprinted in the grass. light purs out of a rainbow light in the slime.

A trio of towering stars sit among a vast ocean. on the shore, lamplight illuminates the path.

Not been mapping much at all lately but finally had some energy to make a 3-hour speedmap (over the course of 3 days, I could only map for a short amount of time each session):

Map: Dead Star
Finished: 6th August 2025
For: Synami Speedmapping Sessions 01: Lunar Lights
