Acer Extensa – FreeDoom phase 2! I am at the second phase!
I try to learn retro systems. And, this is my linux comp. Acer Extensa. Two cores with 1.5. And 4gb ram. About 160gb hard drive. It is with Q4OS. This is light weight linux. Rather nice looking. And, it has a easy to use packet manager. Which, I use to install lots of everything. Also including games. At first look, you have things to select from.
I have installed FreeDoom phase 1,2. For example. They are going with Chocolate Doom. And with its own graphics. And with its own levels. First, I start with - Phase 2. Something like, I have phase two, you know. Joke. I start it. And, I was very surprised. New wow graphics and new levels. And, that computer has a sound. I play with multimedia headphones.
I go through three or four levels. Well, walk them, you know, walk here and there. Levels are big. And, sometimes, they reminds with elements of design a levels from Doom or Hexen. Heretic or Doom 2. There is something familiar. But, this is cozy similar points. Mainly. Levels are absolutely new. And, rather complex. You need to walk and walk here. To press buttons. To make circles. To enter some places, where you cannot enter from the first time or forget.
And, new graphics. New weapons and monsters. They are cool. And, I remember a lot monster, which looks like a snake. Also, they are interesting - a first enemies. They are like humans zombies. Graphics is very cool. And so bright. And atmosphere. I do not feel something this way for a long time. Like MS DOS miracle. With heart beat, I do load again and again after some pause and try to find what place to go next. And, every time, I see a new graphics. New corridor.
I remember a lot a moment. Walk by corridor. Little door close behind. Monsters. And in the end of long corridor there is a button. And, open door is open state again. Wow. Moment! Moments, it is similar as a long levels from heretic. Or hexen. Those game with huge levels. And walk and walk here and there. But, as a good point, here, they are not so huge. Rather ok normal size. This is great!
Phase 2. Game is a good game! I never think, that Doom can have remade version with so good way. I try also Phase 1. And I was stuck there at the first level. There are, there, so big radioactive puddle. And I think, I need to do something.
So, I am at the phase 2 for now. So, I go backward way. Later, I play Phase 1. Excellent weekend! I do not have a good weekend for a long time!
Linux is a good system as I see now. Because of this MS DOS theme. Well, game is looks like MS DOS. And this is so amazing.
Playing little games. From time to time i like to play videogames. And write about it.
