I made a more grisly version of RDND for fun; I added a bunch of gory death animations and really tried to keep in the feel of the original Doom. I reverted the Cacodemon back to it's original vanilla colour scheme as opposed to the Brutal Doom colour scheme. I added an XDeath and an alternate XDeath for the Cacodemon as well. I added some new death animations for the Shotgun Guy, Zombieman, Imp, Cacodemon, Demon, Baron of Hell, I could go on, but that's kinda pointless to me IMHO. Anyway, this is the first version. I made this mod entirely out of fun (like Gritty Doom) and unlike Gritty Doom, it doesn't suck. It's actually pretty fun, and it's really great with my other mod (pk_anim4) which I do plan on uploading sometime soon as an addon. It's really just Perkristian's weapons animations left untouched except the pistol animation is flipped and I added an slide going back animation. Subtle touch but extremely satisfying. Until then enjoy this mod, please spread this link and enjoy!^^

YAY! It's finally finished! I made this mod because I kind of wanted gorier death animations for Random Deaths and Decorations, but without the over-the-topness of Brutal Doom. I like Brutal Doom, it's a fun mod, but it loses the fast-paced feel that the original Doom had you know? There's monster dying states and fatalities which slow the flow of gameplay down IMHO. Doom is about moving fast, shooting demons and killing them as fast as you can, and speeding through levels for secrets.

As I stated earlier, I really wanted gorier death animations without sacrificing the vanilla gameplay of the original. RDND was good, but I felt it could have been a bit gorier, so I made it a bit gorier and I reverted the Cacodemon back to it's original vanilla self. As well as adding in an XDeath (or extreme death) for it (and an alternate one so it's mirrored as well). It's pretty fun to basically gib Cacodemons and stuff.

I really wanted to keep within the vanilla aesthetics of Doom, so I added death animations that I felt would feel like Doom death animations. I didn't want to use any death animations that I felt didn't match the flow of gameplay or the overall aesthetic of Doom.

That's why I didn't use that many "Brutal Doom" death animations or "Project Brutality" death animations.

I tried to keep it down to a mininum. Overall I'm quite happy with my work. I made this as a side-project because I felt like doing it for fun, and I made it in one week with SLADE 3 and a bunch of free-time (spring break) and I listened to a lot of Morbid Angel and Slayer while working on this mod.


Was it worth it?

FUCK YEAH IT WAS! =D

So whatever you do.... give this mod a try. It's really fun. You'll probably enjoy it, and it's just fucking great. No seriously, it's great. Hands down it's one of the best Doom mods out there, if you are a purist and are hesitant about it, maybe soon a Doom Retro compatible version might come out, if someone is willing to code a version for Doom Retro. =P


Anyway, please enjoy the mod, share this link with your friends, make Youtube videos about this mod, share it, like it, stuff please! =D

So ENJOY THE RELEASE OF VERSION ONE POINT ZEROOOOOOOOOOO! =D
