Since I’m the first reader to notice, I congratulate you with your Cacoward!

Quick Recap: The Doom community has always been very strong and innovation driven (that is, all but graphics) and The cacowards are the largest rewards one can get in the community. Hosted by DoomWorld, it’s a place for critical acclaim in the community.

When I signed on to do this years Cacowards (again), I was looking at the list of Cacoward nominees and was having trouble picking a wad that I was really fond of, and Scuba suggested to me that someone should review Arcadia. I read a quick overview of the wad, and while I took it, I didn’t have a whole lot of faith that I Arcadia Demade would like it, with its emphasis on atmosphere over gameplay. And I was very, very wrong.

Arcadia Demade is a remake of a Bioshock map of the same name. It features an organic, open environment with plenty of atmosphere and a new palette. It’s plenty dark, very gloomy, and has new music to match the visuals, creating a completely engrossing environment. The map has somewhat slow and easy gameplay, and while I understand thing placement was also heavily inspired by the original, it could have used some Doom flair. Still, that isn’t what this map is about. It’s about the exploration and discovery of a very intriguing environment, and in that effort the map is definitely top notch. It’s the sort of map you’ll check out more than once. Recommended for everyone, even if you’ve never touched Bioshock. –JP LeBreton

So congratulations, and hopefully we can see more kick-ass levels from you.

You should release this onto the idgames archive when you finalize it; I wasted twenty minutes looking for it there before I searched the Doomworld forums / Google.

the amout of work done to this…possibly one of the best maps everr.
You should try messing around with ZDoom (and XWE).
if you do, ZDL (ZDoom Launcher) is a good tool to get.

as with most people,having a big map normaly means a secret of some kind…then.
