Here's a self-contained copy of the 2015 Cacowards, all engines needed included, everything pre-configured and with a disk-zine WAD browser included -- spideroak.com/browse/share/Kroc/PortaDOOM/releases/

This should keep you busy :) I'm nearing completion of the 2016 awards too, should be done sometime in the coming week.

>>4250030
this game is a handful sometimes.

>>4250149
not funny

50 bucks sure is suspicious. It's probably not even at 3.60.
If it is, it's better than a PSP.

>>4250037
>It's probably not even at 3.60.
I know for certain that it's at a low firmware, guy's a friend of mine. Didn't use it for years and needs some money because blablabla blog shit.
>better than a PSP
guessed that much but how specifically?

Only place where PSP is better is storage, the Vita memory cards are way too expensive

Durandal is one giant Mary Sue, half of the levels are pointless storywise, stories in M1 and M2 (I just said "fuck it" in regards to Infinity) are really simple if you cut all the hipsterisms and red herrings, 2/3s or the levels play as Perfect fucking Hatred on MD/TC due to faggot-tier traps and spawns. Balance is all weird due to there being infinite health supply (basically, in these conditions, maps should be balanced for ammo, but they so aren't that isn't even funny), basically, you are either semi-immortal demigod, backtracking to terminal after each fight, or you suck some major dick and hope you'll find your next healing terminal BEFORE the next SUDDENLY THOUSANDS OF SPHT FROM THIN AIR fit of faggotry on parts of leveldesigners (actually, the only map in M1-2, that uses terminal mechanic right is G4 Sunbathing, where, basically, you have a "base" in the center of the level - and you foray into the unexplored territory all around it). Repetitive as fuck, compared to Pathways into Darkness, vid shtick does nothing for the actual gameplay variety, insane difficulty spikes all the time. Laggy controls (intertial movement + laughably slow strafes + combination of headbob with 30fps cap + you stumble on the smallest height difference due to lowgrav + every weapon feels like rocketlauncher from Doom in terms of response), finite bullet speeds on your guns worsen the impression from gun responsiveness even further.
Levels are ridiculously empty and unnatural looking. Entire faggot-trap ridden levels need to be completed without any saves whatsoever. M1 level from the middle of the game, with the column puzzle, the S'pht Controller M1 level and the last M1 level are legendary in the level of faggotry on part of level-designers. Oh, and the waist-high water in M2. Whoever came up with that is just a dick.

>>4249975
What's nice. Some of the music in M1 was nice. G4 Sunbathing was really memorable, and I regard is as one of the genuine high points (on par with, say, Derelict from DN3D ep4) in 2.5D leveldesign. M2's proto-Unreal-esque atmosphere on L'howon (or whatever it was called) level was alright, the new gun sounds after the craptastic M1's sounds, were cool. There were a couple of pretty nice twists in M2, and I more or less liked the ending, as well as the last bossfight concept. Some of the layouts were, well, they were, for the most part, ok. But, overall, those games are just so much pain in the butt on every convenient occasion, it's really not fucking worth it, in my opinion.

I, generally, enjoyed Pathways way, way, WAAAAAYY more. And the same goes for Combat Evolved as well, by the way. Both those games are just incomparably more sound actual mechanics-wise.

>>4249975
Oh yeah, and, also, the terminal mechanic naturally leads to blatant overuse of Drops Of No Return, which also can be quite maddening in itself.

Did you just get stuck at the tutorial area of the game?

There's supposed to be a door there you've already entered. Go to the next towe, you nigger.

Don't forget to go to the two secret locations before you leave.

>>4249652
Nope, it's a really good game, difficult to master, with a GREAT atmosphere.

Better than the latest X-COM

It's ugly as fuck and the realtime component was mistake.

Other than that it's ok.

>>4249652
It's the definition of being overambitious but time, budget and technology just wasn't there yet. I'd love to see a good remake of it with all of the shit it was supposed to have but got cut for the above three reasons implemented.

But as it is, it isn't a bad game. Just a disappointing one.

Absolutely, love these games. Don Doko Don is a good one.

I like these games too. Is there a good name for this genre of video games?

>>4249584
>inb4 it's too easy.

There's an arcade mode and difficulty levels. Also an unlockable "suicidal" mode if you really wanna pretend you're so hardcore.

>>4249672
It is a bit on the easy side, especially at the earlier levels, but I also find it challenging, but in a good way. Challenging in where I died because I know it was my fault, not some stupid trap the designers laid out to be impossible to pass.

And I can't go back to controlling fighter ships with anything but a mouse now.

And this game is free on gog. I was perusing the free catalog, figured id give it a shot, and i realize I would have paid for it if I could. It's just a fun good shooter.

>>4249680

The SDL port runs faster than the dosboxed gog version, if you like speed.

Legend of Valkyrie is great. My favorite part is how its designers managed to rip off a bunch of bosses from Link to the Past years before the latter game was even released.
