Description             : In honor of Doom 2's 30th anniversary, this community project is Doom 2 without anything from Doom – only Doom 2 textures, only Doom 2 enemies. Let the obsession begin. Again. Features: - 33 maps with gameplay so virtually realistic, it's unbelievable! - Battle mightier, nastier, deadlier demons - only Doom 2 enemies allowed! (Except for enemies spawned by Pain Elementals and Icon of Sin spawners.) - Use more powerful weapons! No single-barrel shotgun allowed! - Only Doom 2 textures and flats that push the envelope out to the max! (With the exception of a few utilities like liquids and key indicators.)
