A reinterpretation or remake of Doom's original E2M3, heavily inspired by KDiZD and the vision for TSoZD with a little personal twist. The whole map has been enlarged, restructured, new areas have been added, old ones enhanced and the whole thing has been turned into something more real and creepy. Expect something totally different in a place that you already know to a very good extend.
On top of that, the map has three phases, which can be played in a sequence - just continue playing after beating one phase.
- Phase 1 has less monsters but also less equipment, so play it carefully and try to discover the map.
- Phase 2 is arcade-action oriented with lots of gunfodder, it comes close to the casual Doom experience.
- Phase 3 is totally different from the other two phases. The map route has been completely revamped, the structures are changing organically (literally) and a time-limit mechanic has been added as well.

A reinterpretation or remake of Doom's original E2M3, heavily inspired by KDiZD (Knee-Deep in ZDoom) and the vision for TSoZD (The Shores of ZDoom) with a little personal taste. The whole map has been enlarged, restructured, new areas have been added, old ones enhanced and the whole thing has been turned into something more atmospheric and creepy. Expect something totally different in a place that you already know to a very good extend from the original Classic Doom.
On top of these improvements, the map has three phases, which can be played in a sequence - just continue playing after beating one phase and you will get to the next.
- Phase 1 has less monsters but also less equipment, so play it carefully and try to discover the map.
- Phase 2 is arcade-action oriented with lots of gunfodder, it comes close to the casual Doom experience.
- Phase 3 is totally different from the other two phases. The map route has been completely revamped, the structures are changing organically (literally) and a time-limit mechanic has been added as well.

Strange. Is it still playable?
First map that I play in 2023, I like a lot the atmosphere and enhancements. But in vanilla (GZDoom 4.10) I can't open the door to go back in first room (Phase 1). No issue with Beautiful Doom loaded.
Is it compatible with Project Brutality or Brutal Doom? It seems broken when I start the map with Project Brutality
Not supported on the fly
Really nicely made. Still only on the first map, but the presentation just calls out quality.
Thanks for the feedback so far, I can't wait to hear more about your thoughts!
Only thing that I can grumble about is needing to shoot the switch towards the end of the first map to progress. The bulk of the interactions were based on observation of the environment, enabling, or disabling things. The shootable switch high up was an oddity by comparison.
Absolutely beautiful mapping. The different themes of lighting combined with the texture choices to make each area distinct, but combine together. As areas would overlap and interconnect it made the locations feel much more real and believable. Luring enemies into hazards to save ammunition was a really nice inclusion as well. It has that feel of what Doom 3 could have been if it had leant more towards the survival side of things.
