race_to_the_death-3.0.wad: the awful adventure idgames style text file =========================================================================================================== Advanced engine needed : mbf + musinfo Primary purpose : Single play =========================================================================================================== Title : race_to_the_death-3.0.wad Filename : rttd3.wad Release date : eventually Author : _thresh_ Email Address : [redacted] Other Files By Author : none that are here yet. a lot on my website. Misc. Author Info : not to be trusted with salt and vinegar potato chips Description : some lunatic told you about the "race to the death 3.0", whatever that is. a week later you get teleported to this weird pit in the middle of nowhere with some switches on the wall. its just a wad that i originally made to mimic the style of some of my old levels from way back when. it doesnt really do a very good job at mimicking them however, and this becomes especially apparent at ~16 levels in.

* 1: this was originally going to be more faithful until my test subject decided they didnt want to make it 2: episode 4 saw a massive increase in the amount of time it takes to make levels due to unknown reasons 3: this was supposed to take heavy inspiration from mock 2 until the "middle" at the time 4: this originally was just going to have 32 levels and not 69, which is way less. 5: i dont know why i added 2 rainbow road recreations or a fun facts section 6: a few levels are referencing past wads i made (and abandoned) other then race_to_the_death-*.wad 7: i find eureka better then doombuilder 8: episode 4 has a VERY annoying "gimmick" 9: this wad likely did not meaningfully change space exploration 10: this wad also likely will not have any effect in the development of Project Orion 11: this wad would NOT make good propellant for Project Orion due to being ones and zeroes 12: this section is way too long! 13: i dont think you actually said any of the stuff it says you said 14: you are not allowed to ask why i downgraded dsda-doom from v0.28 to v0.27.5 =========================================================================================================== * the end * no really this is the end
