MYHOUSE.WAD: The Creepiest DOOM Mod Ever Made 

P

Hi

Express these nuts

no

oh wow! 3 months!?!?! no thanks.

Fuck doom 3

@Louis eat glass

The best part is that John Romero is making SIGIL 2 as well. He still makes maps for Doom after all these years!

@@zouzou_u Yup, he's even streaming his development on Twitch.

YOO SERIOUSLY??? FUCKING HYPE

I hope my dialysis machine can get it running.

Ah Sweet, a Schizo comment section.

pregant?

The WAD is larger than the whole doom game it is played on.

​@@dazednconfused31337Preganté.

There are things in here not meant to jumpscare you that will anyway because it's that tense

The bathroom jumpscare almost made me almost fall out of my seat though

yeah we call it psychological horror like in Silent Hill games as well.

Jumpscares are shit unless done right. Most jumpscares today are predictable and boring

@@rabadonsdeathcap7418 Yeah, jumpscares aren't "inherently" bad practice for horror, but so many people over-use them or use them without earning it. The best jumpscares are the ones that take advantage of our "Fight or Flight" response after the game's already made us tense and alert with its atmosphere and situation. Crappy jumpscares make us flinch or twitch and that's the end of it. Really good ones will leave your heart pounding in your chest long after the danger has passed. In the case of this Doom mod, its few jumpscares are well-earned with how tense it makes you in the time leading up to them.

GZDoom is pretty much a full-fledged game maker engine nowadays, that just so happens to run Doom out of the box.

People makes New games on DOOM engine for decades, in the last 5 years we got Hedon, Hedon 2, Wolfenstein Blade of Agony , Total Chaos and Ashes, unfortunate these mods don't get the attention because they aren't overrated, so it going to get low views for youtubers that never touched DOOM in their lifes.

this is a new game built on doom, from what I know this mod is multiple times the size of the actual doom

​@@DrundeFPSI'd also add solace dreams, and commercial stuff like hedon, supplies and selaco to that list.

@@DrundeFPS Nocturne in Yellow, Shrine 1 & 2, Lycanthron 1 & 2 also come to mind. You have stuff like freedoom 1 & 2 that can run other mods off of them in place of doom 1 or 2. The Doom mod community is the GOAT.

Agree, there were also some minor mistakes where some sequences he believed happened at certain times but they didn’t. For example if you respawn all the enemies by wandering around the house after collecting the keys.. you can’t get ending one. You’re locked in because by that point the house has changed to version 2 with skulls. No idea why he said you could still get to the exit

Yeah. Brings back the nostalgia

All he needed for this vid is to put the old intro and outro and it would be like we went back in time.

Whole reason I subbed to Muta was haunted gaming playthroughs. Good times.

His playthroughs of playing horror games and discuss about it really brings back the nostalgia that he did before. It's the reason why I love watching him with.

same here

Not only is there the mod there's also a series of journal entries that are part of a arg. Also the whole thing I'd a reference to house if leaves

Nah it don't deserve, it just a simple mod made to get attention from some theorists youtubers because of the ARG, unlike Total Chaos, an entire 3D game made on DOOM engine, unfortunate it don't get the attention.

@@DrundeFPS how much haterade did you drink this morning?

@@DrundeFPS average person who knows nothing about the doom engine so doesn't understand that this is impressive

It feels more like a 3D adaptation of Yume Nikki than even the official one (Yume Nikki Dream Diary).

I got this comment to 200 likes.

I am the antichrist agent, my games are not amazing.

Matrix bout to catch a Romanian boi.

👍

Was lit the first game I played when I was 4

@@RobertPayne556 he's not Romanian, unlike me

@Louis that's Crungo

@Louis Can't you read? Crungo made that comment.

Seen that guy post before, he's got some serious issues and I kinda feel bad for him

FUCKKKK THATS RIGHHTT IT HAS EVERYTHING

Now it even has comments in broken English, I'm going to cooooooooooooom~~~~~~~~

Since there are some very clear homages to Backrooms, SCP, etc., I would not be surprised that the distorting of Running From Evil is a homage to Everywhere At The End Of Time (and the attention, for better or for worse, it got)

He also missed the hospital section and the movie cut ending. And how the game messes with you in little ways. Like changing the framerate of animations, playing discord sounds, adding instruments to the classic doom music or taking it away. Oh and how almost every map is the house again, and how the house is laid out like a blue keycard. This was a real passion project.

Yeah, House of Leaves is awesome

He also missed the fact that Thomas and Steven were partners

I looked in the map in UDB and there is a script for that closet. Basically, it has a random 10% chance to trigger and if it does, this labyrinth is linked to the closet instead (via line portals). The other 90% of the time, it's just the normal closet. Now, I'm not sure if this is decided upon opening the door or if it's randomly set upon starting the map. It might be interesting to investigate this as it could be something could start incorporating in maps more (I'm still trying to learn the Doom's advanced scripting). As for it being silent, there is a script that triggers when you walk too far into it (so you can't retreat) that puts a hidden item in your inventory and fades the music. It's interesting how you can use hidden items like this, and even make them act like keys to only trigger when you have specific items. This is done multiple times when playing and the player is completely unaware of it. I think this is done when the doors leading to outside the house are removed and when that item is removed, the doors are restored (could be wrong on this, but since I know they have lines set to specific keys, it's probably somewhat accurate). As for the labyrinth, even trying to view it in 3D mode, with maxed out brightness in Ultimate Doom Builder (pressing B in 3D mode), it's still confusing as all the textures are the same. I can't remember if they have multiple line portals teleporting you to other parts of the maze or not, but I wouldn't be surprised if it did. Even more interesting, there are at least 20 something house variations, which mostly seamless transition via the line portals (some repeatable, many are 1 time use). Many are simple to explain, with 1 of them being the upstairs and the other being the basement. The attic has 2 other version, both regular and mirror world. Also, there are I think close to 18 something "ladies bathroom" variations for the airport. They have a bunch of invisible 1 way line portals for every possible way people could move, which slowly covers blood in the room. If anybody wants the map in 3D mode, extract the myhouse.pk3 with 7zip (as .pk3 files are just renamed .zip files). - Download Ultimate Doom Builder 64-bit. Note it MUST BE the 64 bit version, or it will crash in 3D mode as it runs out of memory as it used between 3 to 4 GB. - Load up the house.wad in UDB that was extracted from the myhouse.pk3, but in the resources, drag the myhouse.pk3 into that. This will load all the custom resources and textures as well. Not sure if it makes a difference but I set the game config to GZDOOM: Doom 2 (UDMF) instead of Eternity: Doom 2 (UDMF). I only mention UDB mainly for easier 3D viewing of the map, which I don't think can be done in programs like SLADE (but I could be wrong). Honestly, somebody could easily spend hours making a video showing off some of the genius moves the creator did to make this map. I could see many people using this map to study from to learn some of these advanced features that many (including me) didn't know you could even do.

@@LuisIsAsleep I took the ‘it wasn’t meant to be’ baby crib and bottle stuffed in the attic as some kind of ‘didn’t get the adoption’ for whatever reason. Maybe it was the hope of adopting before tragedy struck etc.

It maes sense story wise, its a childhood nightmare

@@Disatiere you could be right.

@@ApolloVice09 He is. It's literally called "Childhood Nightmare" in the files.

I miss those days

I agree but still great content today too!

Dude Fr fr. I remember almost everyday coming home after work in 2017. Heading straight to the shower and always loading a video up. A cabin in the middle of the woods too.

Yeah at first some of the users in the forum were kinda neglecting it for being easy. Then realizing there’s more to it than the blue gate.

Also missing a mention that the big dog and small dog are the same dog and die together, as well as the eternal void ending

Yeah that’s why most users on the forum got confused thinking it was some easy map.

Do you really buy the phony backsory? One look at the incredibly fake picture of the two framed friends followed by a fake looking article using headshots of the two that are just the same cropped and reversed images? I mean seriously?

@@GrimNephilim Dude, if there's anyone here missing the point, it's you. Just because they called it a "meta-narrative" doesn't mean they think it's real, and you need to brush up on your reading comprehension skills. The other guy was praising the mod for being a clever play on the ARG and creepy-pasta tropes of the past few years, and how its "secrets" were treated as a story which has happened or is happening in the background, with the player being free to discover it all on their own as they go through the map. No rational person (especially one providing a critique/analysis of the way its horror story was presented through Doom) would honestly think any of this is true, because if it was then that would be the same thing as believing that this Doom mod is haunted and supernatural entities have somehow breached your device. You're just being a dick to them after completely misunderstanding what they wrote.

@@GrimNephilim Well thanks for proving me right about your reading comprehension with a take like that :). I'll leave things here since you're not really gonna listen to anything else I say.

@@Lazarultos you're the one that completely mis interpreted what I said and started being combative. You're the *sshole here man, not me

@@Lazarultos Lmao he deleted his comment what nonsense did he try to hit you with??

it's actually insane just how much work went into this wad, the most compelling mystery is who really made it

@@NGRevenant at least we know who did the music

That isn't saying much unfortunately...

@@necrosteel5013 my sweaty balls are 10X better than any modern AAA game fr

Just a simple mod, there is mods with more effort like Ashes Afterglown.

@@DrundeFPS it's more than just a simple mod, it's more akin to P.T as mutaman states. But yes I agree, ashes afterglow is bloody awesome.

Gollum game of the year

Personally, I was waiting to see if Mutahar would cover it

Don't deserve the attention, it's just a wad made to get famous from some theorists youtubers, there are basically new games made on DOOM engine that don't recnognized.

@@DrundeFPS Maybe this’ll be the start. Like, I hate ARGs, absolutely despise them, but this one is like nothing else. If you have any ARGs to recommend, please do. Don’t think they’ll top this though.

Jimmy did the messed up MIDI as well, but Essel's ambient piece is otherworldly.

What’s your favorite playthrough on this? Looking for some to watch

AI perhaps.

What's the outer one?

Best depiction of insanity to ever be written. Love House of Leaves.

The lore is phony. Cleary.

The mow the lawn% speedruns go hard

@Louis blud is swallowing facts 🔥🔥🔥

Tastes like glass.

@@Mr_Tux794 yeah! I watched a video about it lmao

the truth is nuts

Our boy Muta has never played a slaughter wad

eeyuck! (i dont like matpat (he doesnt like gay people very much and did a charity stream trying to "fix" queers)

Wheres Jessie?

Hi-senburg!! Get it??? It's a portmanteau of heisenburg and hi????

has matpat ever done a game theory on an ARG before?

one day I will pay

@@RobertPayne556 bruh

You can still support Muta without being broke, it's okay really. 😐 And ads help the channel, dunno if new to TY or…

​@@RobertPayne556 calm down bud.

wondering the same thing

I think it’s boltgun

@@karthiktirumala1773 is it? the UI looks a bit different, im not sure

PLEASE, GRAF DUMB FOR THINKING THAT LOOKS GOOD.

Unfortunately it's the default setting, and a newer player isn't doing to go through the maze that is the settings to change it off.

It’s more so the lore is emotionally exhausting that makes it creepy like silent hill 2
