Since I know how much people like it, here's a little feedback on
DoomRL (doomrl-win-098-full).
It's awesome. I was utterly astounded how well sound fit into the game.
An already great game at that.
I especially like how plasma rifles seem to be good now.
That said, there's also a few issues I noticed:
1. when an action fails, you still get the sound as if it worked.
Switching to a weapon you don't have, getting an item with a full
inventory and so on.
2. If you have no shotgun ammo in your inventory, you can't use the
reload command to pump another round into the combat shotgun, even
though there are still rounds left in the shotgun.
3. When you pick up a chainsaw, you get the messages "You don't have a
rocket". You're set to beserk, and the chainsaw is not equipped.
4. Drops can spill through walls.
5. spelling errors:
"You see : a demon (severly<sic> wounded)" (vs severely)
"the air is realy<sic> humid here" (vs really)
"You see : a demon (mortaly<sic> wounded)" (vs mortally)
"You reload the double shotgun with <sic> shotgun shell." (lack of the)
6. Oddities:
"The hell knight reloads his pistol"
7. Requests:
- Some way to access message history.
- numbers should select most loaded weapon, not first weapon.
- since combat shotguns carry their 'un-pumped' status into the
inventory, it should be noted there.
