First win!
« on: November 16, 2006, 21:46 »

This is my first post. Before proceeding, I would like to congratulate the developer for this wonderful roguelike. It has great atmosphere, even for someone like myself who didn't play the original Doom games, and it is appropriately challenging until the very end.

That being said, I managed to beat the Cyberdemon by suicide. The easiest victory, no doubt; but with only one med-pack and a couple of rockets, I didn't think I could defeat him otherwise. Not only is this my first Doom RL victory, but my first finished roguelike! I didn't think that day would come...

Here's the post mortem file:

Albert, level 7 soldier, sacrificed himself to kill the Cyberdemon
 on level 20 of the Phobos base.
 He survived 102106 turns and scored 24141 points.

 He killed 389 out of 406 hellspawn. (96%)
 He held his right to remain violent.

 He found the Phobos Arena.
 He fought on Hell's Arena.

 On level 18 he found a hellish city.
 On level 19 he found a hellish city.
 Then at last he found the Phobos Arena.
 There finally he sacrificed himself to kill the Cyberdemon.

-- General ---------------------------------------------------

 Before him 12 brave souls have ventured into Phobos:
 10 of those were killed.
 And 1 couldn't handle the stress and commited a stupid suicide.

 Some rumours though, say that the Cyberdemon was killed already!
 Is he immortal? 1 souls claim to have killed him...
 1 sacrificed itself for the good of mankind.

Well done! Sacrificing yourself is a great option in a pinch, but next time try using it while immortal :)


Congratulations on your first win, on your 13'th game no less! Most don't get theirs untill the mid 40's!

Yes, I'll think of that next time!

Actually, I've played an additionnal 6 or 7 games on an alternate computer. Nonetheless, I think I haven't done too badly!
