=========================================================================== Primary purpose : Single play =========================================================================== Title : Lost Luxury Filename : Lolu.wad Release date : 17th of March, 2021 Author : Alper002 Email Address : [redacted] Other Files By Author : NanoHexen 2019, a few doom wads which haven't been and probably won't be uploaded to /idgames,various maps for the Abyssal Speedmapping Sessions since the 49th one, contributions to 64kb-vanilla, 3x3, modest mapping 2, and more. Misc. Author Info : Likes playing as the mage! Description : Lost Luxury is a 10-map hub designed for Vanilla Hexen. 5 maps are interconnected, 2 are for the finale, and 3 are secret! While I originally started this for NaNoWADMo 2020, I didn't exactly finish on time, and ended up taking a whole lot longer. Difficulty settings do matter here! If playing on the two hardest settings, you may only obtain your final weapon by getting the pieces from the 3 (obtuse) secret maps! On lower difficulties you can also find them in vaguely hidden areas. Monster amounts are also adjusted. Skill 5 is untested but combat isn't too extreme most of the time, so it's probably possible to beat. The story goes something like this: There's been recent worried talks of a large, flying wheel being seen in the skies. Some have reported it raining down death from above, and that it seems to always leave towards one particular abandoned locale. Said locale used to be a luxurious resort, but most who have checked in on what happened since haven't returned. Some believe it now belongs to a group known as the Hextuple Heresiarchs, a powerful group of dark magicians. Against your own better judgement, you too decide to see what's happening there. Traveling there by boat, as you hit the foggy shore you only hear the winds and waves. But that might not be for long... Additional Credits to : WolfMcBeard, for playing through once and finding a game-breaking bug for me to fix!
