AGDoom mod

AGDoom Redux has been out for a few days and I think I owe and explanation as to what the plan even is. While its name alone is indication that I'm basically revising the mod, it's quite the step away from the original design philosophy.

I feel a better way to explain AGDoom Redux's overall design goals and changes includes:

• Reduced quantity of weapons in favor of variability and function of each weapon
• Alternate style of movement and speed to encourage new movement strategy
• Introducing reloading to more frequently shift the combat dynamic during moment-to-moment gameplay and encourage weapon swapping
• Introducing upgrades to make weapons less distinctly hierarchal

The general focus on AGDR is future-proofing both the code and design, but right now as of 0.1.1 it's really more of a foundation to begin rebuilding the mod as it was left off. It's my intention that from here, I can begin to reintroduce the original classes one by one, each with their loadouts revised and redesigned, and with the new Adrenaline mechanic, generally more distinct in playstyle from one another.

Of course, I am not back triumphantly. Life is still keeping me very busy and as of right now I'm a long ways away from working on this full time. But this should also keep me encouraged to keep working on it now that I've gotten this far. If you want to keep up with me and my projects, the best place to do so is over on this Discord made for AGDoom and similar projects. If you're feeling generous, you can also support me on Patreon.
