31 Challenging Levels.
Needs registered wolf3d and ECwolf.
Big as Hans. If you meet him - run away and look for a first aid kit. And ammo.
Today I will present the boss from the first episode.
A set of 7 maps by 6 people, prompted to simply "make a map" multiple times by an oppressive cello player.
Requires LZWolf
>>> What the hell is this?
A: A Wolf3D mapping experiment that involved 9 guinea pigs.
Each level was made in 9+1 rounds with a specific task. After each round the maps were
rotated amongst the authors.
In other words, each map was made by 9 people.
In round 1 each author made a full but basic map layout.
In round 2 the next randomized person changed the wall textures for the existing rooms.
In these days of Wolf4SDL, LZWolf, and general advancement of modding, projects that exceed the original Wolfenstein 3D in features and scope are reasonably common.
Back in 2003 however, modding using changes to the source code was still in it's infancy. People were still fumbling around discovering things, and major features like floor and ceiling textures were still new.
So when Kreml 3D was announced, it caught immediate interest from the general community.
When it came to gaming, my Grandad probably had the biggest impact on me as a kid.
I remember being very young and making a trip to his house with my parents and very young brother, only to be blown away by what would now be a fairly "meh" sort of a game compared to nowadays, but I enjoyed thoroughly as one of the first I ever got to play.
It's now been a year since the new, creator-oriented Wolf3D.net went live, and I am delighted with where we are now.
When Wolfsource (Now Wolf3D.net) first started in 2019, it started with an aim to provide a platform for fans of Wolfenstein 3D and other Wolf3D games to chat and find Wolf3D content. Providing a News Website and a stable Discord, Wolf3D.net filled a hole that had been present for several years, and was well received.
Also known as -Helvete- or simply Helvete, Castle Helvete was to be an ambitious game by ChiefRebelAngel that teetered on the edge of completion before as is often the case, real life obligations intervene.
Originally announced in July of 2004, ChiefRebelAngel came in strong for his first game announcement, showing off his artistic skills in an unofficial sequel story to Wolfenstein 3D, taking place after the third episode of the game, "Die, Führer, Die!".
