Plutonic Visions is, as you might have guessed, a Plutonia-inspired megawad but it goes a step further in that regard than other wads with this aspirations. Texturing, map sizes, map designs, monster usage and monsters counts all closely follow Plutonia's example. On top of that, the maps manage to hit such a difficulty level with the limited amount of monsters that I think what we have ahead of us is what Plutonia must have felt like back in the '90s. Ready for the nostalgia-tinted piece of challenge? See you there!

Seems like the DBP series is steadily becoming a mainstay of TNS. The latest installment features Moon exploration and apparently a small number of aliens deciding to join forces with our familiar roster from Hell as they ravage Earth's only natural satellite. If this planet has been a bit too much lately, come take a break to the lunar surface overrun by creatures from Hell and evil aliens!

Further on the road to Hades things get more intense. Besides the maps getting a bit more difficult and elaborate, as might be expected, we also get to encounter some unique maps in both design and gameplay. A lot to look forward to, hope you won't miss it!

This week TNT goes Boom!* Megawads for TNT are quite a rarity by themselves but combine that with Boom compatibility and we have ourselves another first in the almost 13 years of TNS history. Road To Hades is a full megawad by a single author that starts with relatively short and humble maps but gradually picks up in terms of monster counts and how elaborate the maps get. Should be quite a journey to Hades we have ahead of us!

TNS #672 - Doomium II (Part III)

With its focus on straightforward map progression and a mix of map-placed and teleporting in monsters, Doomium II has proven to be a very mapset to battle our way through. That's largely what expects us in the last part of the wad as well so get ready for more fast-paced and occasionally frantic action as we finish this outstanding megawad!
