I would be surprised if anyone manages to get to the 250th dlevel...  besides, a marathon mode like that would be un-Chaosforge-RL-ish... these games are meant as a quick game, not the three-hour games that we see more and more of these days...

Been thinking about this - perhaps Angel of Classic Doom.

Armor Shards spawn a lot more (and give +5% armour), you have inventory space for one of each weapon, and one stack of each ammo, up to the maximum in classic doom.

On a new note (though I haven't read the entire thread and I could be copying):
Angel of Estrogen:

Female players unite! DoomGuy? Are you kidding me?! DoomGirl saves the day in this challenge.

+x% chance to dodge
+x% to reload time
-x% to health
-x% to overall damage resistance

OR perhaps give the player an option, after beating N! or somesuch, of being female in ANY of the games for the same bonuses.

Leave an item on the ground? Not checking that dark spot of the map? Not killing that monster! Preposterous!
In this challenge mode you HAVE TO study the entire map, get 100% kills on each level you enter and pick all the power ups or you won't be allowed to leave.

Jeez. That's intense.

That's how I play! *looks around*
I'm getting the feeling that I'm playing a bit above the standards, by trying to get every kill and item.

Maybe that's why beating the game in 30 minutes seems near impossible to me.

Cave Levels are impossible. There are many walls which block nearly the half of the map. In this you should see all walls on the level, else it's impossible.
Put a chainsaw in my coffin. If I go to Hell, I'll need to do some cleaning there.

I think that there are too many items to pick up and not enough backpack space.

Well, he only mentions power-ups, not actual items.

Tavana

Sorry, I thought that was implied in the first line of the challenge description.

Hm, you're right as well. Then I honestly don't know, lol.

Well it could be changed to "Accesible dark spots" or something like that then.

Quotethis challenge is imposible on N!
But doesn't killing every monster once count for the kill percentage? Meaning you kill them all once and its allllright.

I knew that, which is why I stated powerups.

Don't worry of place in your backpack - it's infinite now! But more items -> slower speed. With full (usual) backpack you cannot run. With double full (usual) you are ever tired. And you cannot drop anything! And every item you pass over will be taken immediatly!

It's kind of reversal of AoI.
He had posted some posts.
He waited enough for new version of DoomRL.
He played classic Doom but not passed. He also played rogulikes. And once he found the intersection of these sets...

Suddenly all the respawnings in N! terrify me more than ever...
I computed, therefore I was.
