Highway Acceleroid Booster is a GZDoom gameplay mod where you play as a robot girl that's part car and part super fighting robot. Armed primarily with mobility, a series of battle chips for extra combat data, and a variety of utensils installed into her gauntlets, she zips from place to place to gather additional combat data. And to help out wherever she's needed, admittedly. Helping feels nice. Inspired by Mega Man X, gameplay feel is a little bit more cartoony and high-tech than usual, with some pretty outlandish weapons doing some silly functions.. Designed to act as a complement for sci-fi/space-age mapsets, the gameplay mod acts as a direct contrast with High Noon Drifter. Rather than being very simple and low-tech, this mod is a little bit more complicated and hi-tech. If you've been looking for a mod where you can play as a robot, android, gynoid, or you've been looking for something to compliment Stardate 20X7, this might be up your alley.

Originally designed for ResistJam, and then Infinity Jam after that fell apart, Super Dude-Shooter is a single-player one-level tech demo of platformers on the GZDGPL engine, using Freedoom as a base. There's also the start of a poignant story of unfair separation between a robot and his true love, and his rising up to resist against the bourgeois that's forced him into action, but we mostly cut it to make room for more dudes to shoot.
Insanity's Requiem is a Doom gameplay mod based around magazine-based weapon reloading and an expanded enemy roster.
Doom is fast. DOOM(4) is fast-ish. By mixing the movement speed of the old Doom, with the jumping tricks of the new DOOM, this mod is aimed to be a very fast paced experience, therefore it can be quite challenging. Even though there are no hitscan-attacking monsters, their projectiles are "not too fast" at best, "holy crap, where did that come from" at worst. The projectile attacks are there to be dodge-able most of the time, so long as you are keeping an eye (and ear) on your surroundings. However, since this was created with the idea of also being playable on a mobile device via D-Touch, where movement and aiming are somewhat diminished, additional skills were added to fit whatever playing style you prefer. Whether you want a very easy experience with a ton of monsters, or a very difficult one with fewer enemies, it's all covered! This mod is also completely designed with multiplayer in mind via Zandronum, and extensive care was taken to ensure it works as intended in said port. Coop with your squad and kick major ass butt. Or jump into Deathmatch with the completely rebalanced weapons and see who's better at piling corpses
Demon Eclipse was a Doom II mod for GZDoom by Amuscaria (formerly Eriance). Originally intended to be told through the eyes of another marine escaping the invasion on Earth in during Doom II, Demon Eclipse went through multiple iterations but was ultimately dropped due to real-life and the loss of motivation for the project by the author. The project had succumbed to multiple rounds of scope-bloat and become too much to manage. The first episode of first dropped from the mod, but was later made standalone by Blue Shadow. The intent was to focus and refine the second episodes 'hell-tech' theme in the "Hell-Forged Edition", but that also fell thru in 2014. In 2017, Amuscaria had revive the project in a complete reboot of the second episode by the name of Hell-Forged, with a much narrower focus around the Gothic hell-tech theme.

Kid 4 $29.99 (shortened to K42) is a small game made in GZDoom for the 2020 7 Day FPS jam. On an external level, Kid 4 $29.99 is a vaporwave/synthwave-style run-and-gun shooter where you play as a young boy taking shelter in a mall. But inside the mall, things turn in a slightly different direction... On an internal level, K42 is designed as one part a playable game, one part a personal test to see if my artistic abilities have advanced enough to develop something (they have!), one part a metaphorical foray into personal matters, one part me wanting to make a shooty whiz-bang ka-pow run-and-gun fun-in-the-sun video game,and one part a mixing bowl to toss in a lot of half-baked ideas I've had over the years. It's an experimental little game. But I had fun developing it. I hope you have fun playing it.
Project Einherjar is a five-episode total conversion for GZDoom/Doom II developed and released by Mike MacDee (Impie) in the summer of 2016; Episode 2 was later released in the winter of 2016; and Episodes 3 through 5 throughout early 2017. It is set during nuclear winter, and features 35 new maps and a totally replaced roster of weapons and enemies in the style of an early-90s 3D shooter. Impie made the mod as a promotional gimmick for a dystopian novel series set in the same universe. The gameplay involves lots of fast, brutal shootouts with enemies that die relatively easily, but can badly injure the careless player. Each episode features a short story that sets the stage for the action to follow, written in the novel's pulpy style. The mod series is referred to as "Winter Agent Juno." Impie got the mod series title from a Japanese review blog's description of the mod: "Winter Agent Jin: Destroy the Armored Sisters Institute!". Impie later released a fan mod of the Wolfendoom episode Operation: Arctic Wolf using Project Einherjar assets. An 11-map sequel episode, Midgard Outlaw, was released in 2018. The third Winter Agent Juno mod, Operation Sea Wolf, was released in 2019.
