Speaking of naff doom clones, anybody remember death mask?


Urgh, definitely. Around that time (94-96) the Amiga got some really bad DOOM clones. Death Mask, Citadel, Testament...to but name a few. None are memorable except for how bad they were.

Genetic Species was really one of the better ones on the Amiga. I recall that reviewers at Amiga Format were so bored of the crap clones they didn't even give GS a chance..."Load it, it's crap, give it 30%, go back to playing Quake."Very sloppy journalism. A pity too, because it didn't deserve that at all. They gave it a fairer review later, but by that time the damage was done...

Personally I rate Alien Breed 3D as one of the finest.

Blocky it may have been but it got the atmosphere right :-)

Pity there was never a c2p version. That could have run quite well...

TKG was extremely good in terms of appearence IMHO, but was just too sluggish. I had a lot of fun creating models and playing with some third party level editor (cant recall the name).

My mates cyberstorm Mk III ran it reasonably well though.
