I really liked the aesthetics. It captured the old school feel very well, sprite animations in 3d has something. The rocket launcher felt really nice to use, being able to strafe around the slow moving rockets to see it from a different perspective was cool. Sure, it was the worst weapon in the game, but it looked cool :D

Thanks dude ^^
Glad you liked the overal retro aesthetic and especially the work put into the world sprites, while they would have still be pre rendered 3D regardless, the doom style 8 angles almost didn’t made the cut cause it was hell to implement, and still it isn’t implemented all that well as is if i’m honest ^^’
Haha yeah i made rockets way too slow for them to be any kind of use, but i set myself a goal of having an arsenal close to classic Doom so it had to have one (even if sadly i couldn’t make a BFG equivalent in that time -_-) plus it doesn’t help that i didn’t balance any damage values so the rocket launcher ends up feeling especially weaker compared to any other gun in the game. Glad you liked it anyway, hopefully if i get some time for some later tweaks and fixes i can make it a bit better XD
