A lot of it is stuff I’d never have expected people to even try to make given SnapMap’s limitations. Farming games, raccoon simulators (as enacted by marines and demons), “Pokemon” arenas, a whack-a-mole clone called “whack-a-soul” - and that’s to say nothing of faithful remakes of classic Doom levels and creative custom campaigns. Still, you’ve gotta love seeing what people come up with when crammed in a tiny glass cube of constraints. Its tile sets are bland, you can’t upload custom textures, you can’t script particularly complex events and you can’t go too crazy with enemy numbers, among other things. But for all its intuitiveness, SnapMap is exceedingly limited. Don’t get me wrong: SnapMap is basically Mario Maker for Doom, and that’s awesome, especially for the technically challenged among us (we’ll call them “Nathan Graysons” for short). In the above video, I recount my experiences with a map called Harvest Doom while lamenting that the new Doom doesn’t have proper mod support. Naturally, somebody’s already made a farming game. The other side of the coin isn’t multiplayer (which is kinda boring), but rather SnapMap, a tool that lets players make their own maps and modes quickly and easily. Doom‘s single-player campaign might be getting all the praise, but that’s only half its appeal.
