Always the bridesmaid, never the bride 💔
No Cacoward (not that I was expecting one), but it feels good to still get acknowledged. Twice, now!

maybe I was really pathetic and begged for it, maybe it was a "consolation prize", something given out of pity, because I was in a rough spot at the time, struggled with emotional stuff, coming to terms with the abuse I had suffered, recovering from ANOTHER breakup...

Well, this is a very funky, surreal slice of Doom: Blues Brothers 2025 - already racking up a bunch of Cacoward nominations.
Interestingly shifted gameplay. More focus on deadly but dodgeable projectiles and plasma gun barrages. And the vibes are... otherworldly.

Mind you this is only 30 dollars more than the singular golden cacodemon figurines that are basically Cacoward ripoffs.

There will always be only one legitimate and recognized physical Cacoward. It belongs to John Romero, as it naturally should.

Looks like a cacoward trophy too much to be a coincidence... Clearly just a straight rip off.
Bethesda should have done something cool like give doom world a bunch to give away

so, things i learned this week:
1. there's a doom wad that relies almost entirely on engine bugs www.youtube.com/watch?v=AatD...
2. gzdoom's lead absolutely lost his shit when it got a cacoward
3. there's a request to make it playable on uzdoom, and the reply to the request was "sorry, but no"

Incredibly honored that NT got both the mordeth (i kinda expected that one tbh) and a cacoward too
Also, pleased to see that my mapset got a mention in the "24 more for 24" section. That was a nice little read.
On to next year now.

We can all take pride in the fact that despite not even being a physical award (most of the time), this carries more legacy and pestige than a Game Award ever will.
No one wants one of those things. Everyone however, wants a majestic, golden visage of our beloved Cacodemon <3.

DTWID won a Cacoward, and my soundtrack was ported to Base Ganymede. So in the 2012 Cacowards, I was associated twice with the same songs! In conjunction with Spectrum Descent winning an honorable mention in the 2024 awards, I like to imagine I'm my way to a Cacoward through sheer osmosis.

As far as I'm aware no one was aware of this before it came out.
I've been trawling through reddit threads and the two reactions seem to be "Why?" Or "oh that's a Cacoward". So that tells me what I need to know, really.

STARTING SOON: Monday Grab Bag! Today we're going to be taking a look at MyHouse.wad. Posted on the doomworld forums by a new user, as a tribute to a lost childhood friend.
See why this seemingly simple map is a winner of the Doomworld Cacoward, and became an INSTANT classic among the community.

Put in a recommendation for the Purgatory Megawad for a 2025 Cacoward on Doomworld and came to find 2 other people did so before me.
People know good taste when they see it.

I'm only a few levels deep but I'm calling it right now.
AMALGOOM is getting a Cacoward. There have been multiple moments where these levels, an amalgam of Doom 1 and 2 levels smooshed together in a teleporter accident, have caused me to "oh wow" out loud.
