Metroid: Dreadnought is a mod for Doom II inspired by both Prime and Super, aiming to combine the speed and weapons of Super Metroid with the hectic gunplay of Metroid Prime; it provides an experience both hectic and fun in both singleplayer and multiplayer, giving veterans of the franchise the ability to wield their favored items in new ways and gives newcomers a fantastic introduction to the greatest action/adventure franchise to hit consoles.

Thanks to the magic of ijon tichy, the cvarinfo has been completely repurposed to do different functions when--sorry, is this a little technical?
The short of the matter is that now the mod can detect when it's being run in Zandronum or ZDoom, and adjust itself accordingly!

Though this will undoubtedly bring up a lot of problems in the future when Zandronum starts catching up with ZDoom, for now being able to use one single .pk3 for two different source ports is a gigantic boon. Team up with your buddies online, or prowl through levels in singleplayer without needing two separate builds entirely!
