I've been playing the new version, pretty fun. The last time I played DoomRL extensively was before there were badges, so yeah, there's a ton of new shit. As far as I remember I've only won once, on second-lowest difficulty, and by the looks of it the game has a whole new section after what used to be the old ending (Cyberdemon level) so, yeah. I quit playing for a long time because the game would constantly lock up on my computer, making me start over. Kornel promised that the SDL version would fix that, so here we are today with the SDL version finally out.
The game is great, though. Such a high quality game, especially considering it's all made by one guy. The Doom music and sound effects definitely help, though.
After playing with the tiles I like them more, but I find some things hard to identify by just looking at the tile (monsters aside, which are pretty good representations of the actual thing). I agree that the view seems a little claustrophobic, however.
By the way, does anyone experience the game screwing up and no longer telling you what you're standing on? I play with keyboard only, but randomly this will happen and I have no idea why. It's irritating as fuck, especially because of how difficult it is to visually discern what the objects are.
