Given that Heretic would be released only a few months later, it would’ve been nice for look to be implemented, especially for the cityscape levels. Doomguy still can’t jump, nor can he look up and down. The actual gameplay remains more or less unchanged. Additionally, rather than being broken up episodically in the tradition of many shareware games, Doom II consists of 30 consecutive levels, though these are broken up thematically with story-text interludes.Įverything you could possibly like about Doom is there: true 3D environments with rich textures, varied-light environments (perfect for springing those jump-scare death traps), excellent dark and heavy bleep-bloop music, lots of guns, lots of monsters, pentagrams, and gore.ĭoom II’s levels are not substantially larger than those in Doom, but the middle section of the game features an interesting level design experiment, using big, open levels with multiple buildings to simulate the cityscape that Doomguy is fighting his way across. The major noticeable changes are the inclusion of the double shotgun (yay!) and the removal of the overworld map on the intermission screen (boo!). It’s up to Doomguy to find where the invasion is coming from and put a final end to it. Did you love Doom? Then you’ll probably love Doom II, because it’s largely more of the same, just with a few tweaks, new enemies, new weapons, and some technical improvements.ĭoom ended with Doomguy returning from Hell Mars to find that Earth had been overrun by demons and was being merged with Hell.
