You basically have to transport the player to a completely different map with the same things without the player realizing it, which is a trick this map employs constantly with complete seamlessness. It's not adding in new entities, not swapping out entities.

      @bit_ronic Рік тому +136

      ​​​​@@adrianaslund8605 the uncanniness of the song comes from it being a _slightly wrong_ version of running from evil, which is the first song in doom 2, it also happens to be the song that most doom mods use since most modders don't replace the music tracks in their levels, which keeps running from evil as the track for the first level in a mod, this essentially means that most of the doom community has this song etched into their minds to the point it becomes familar, so the scare itself becomes stronger the more familiar you are with the original game.
      the map ruins this sense of familiarity by initially establishing the song as exactly the same it's always been, but then starting to twist it when the house itself starts getting weirder.
      it'd be like listening to the original studio version of falling in love with you on loop, but realizing on the second loop that the piano is slightly off-tune, or that the lyrics are different, and by the fifth loop, the original song is barely recognizable.

    1: Get all items in the map, get to the sercret ending, but when the secret is right in your grasp, go back and burn the house down anyway, trigger the bad ending, then go back to the road area. Doing so will give you an image of a grave with a QR code on the front of the tombstone. The QR code leads to an obituary of steven. It's not hard to connect the dots.
    2: open and close a specific closet in the second house. Doing this enough times will open up a hall of concrete darkness. No music inhabits this maze. Just sheer dread. Solve the maze, and you're treated to an infinte circular staircase.
    3: in multiple rooms in the concrete area, the rooms are lit up. In one is nothing. The second one holds a mega sphere. Fast and easy 200% health and armor. The third is a lot harder to get to, but it can be done. Inside it is a tv, broadcasting the inside of the room it's in. If you fiddle with the tv cord, the outlet giving the tv life comes undone. This is visible for one frame. After which, you find that all tv's in the house, including the mirrored house, are switched on, showing only static.

      It's a mod with the especific intent to make you uncomfortable, not even disturbed, the subtly changing layout of the house, the jarring and sudden shifts in tone even absurdly minute details like the weapon animation changes you said.
      It does everything in it's power to make sure you never feel safe or at ease, it even goes out of it's way to create scenarios like the completely normal underhalls to lure you into a false sense of security only to pull the rug from you by looping you back in the house as if to imply that even things you thought you knew are now alien and not trustworthy.
      Also the fact that there's NO jumpscares is amazing because it knows that at some point you expect the big screamer to show up but instead the mod leaves you in paranoia the entire time.

      @@cloudshad0ws Well in this video itself, you can see the first time he completes the map when the house disappears and is replaced with a "For Sale" sign, it is up for sale by "Navidson Realty", a direct reference to the name of the owner of the house in House of Leaves. The journal detailing the mod creator's descent into madness, referenced in several times in the video, also directly mirrors many of Johnny's musings while putting together the book in House of Leaves. And while not shown in this particular video, there is also an extremely large (and entirely extraneous) segment that just builds the space from the house basically exactly as described in the book.
      It's very clear that the creators of the mod took a lot of inspiration for both the mod and the story behind it from House of Leaves, in addition to things like liminal spaces and the backrooms.

    • @jordynanable3429
      @jordynanable3429 Рік тому +215

      @@cloudshad0ws I think what is so similar between this mod and the book is less so the plot, and more the format of the mod. It sounds a bit silly, but house of leaves uses its form as a book to tell and enhance its story, partly using reader's expectations of a book against them to unsettle them. This mod does that with a doom mod. They are both built with a similar nested story, where someone receives an unfinished work from a dead friend/acquaintance and becomes obsessed with it. The work in question deals with a messed up house yeah, but each house is wrong in ways specific to their repsective genres.
      Something I love about this mod is that the player gets to experience the "navidson record" where the reader only gets to read it. The specifics of how each is messed up are not the same, but a hol house wouldn't work for a doom audience. Navidson might initially realize that his house is larger inside by a few inches than it is outside and a myhouse player might notice the reappearance of windows outside that didnt exist before. When exploring the house, yes, it was unsettling because it was getting bigger, but it was more that the house did not act as a house should. It grew as you would walk hallways, stairways going miles into the earth would appear, vast chambers and hallways that went up both ways. Imo for a video game, unusual architecture isn't all that unnerving. You are supposed to progress and move through levels, so by returning again and again to the same map, it twists that idea of progression into a source of anxiety.
      There's a lot more that I think really works with the house of leaves analogy(?), like the increasing addition of features and mechanics that are not present in the original games and how that maps onto the usage of text spacing and orientation, colors, etc. but I've been writing for a while and getting increasingly pretentious about it, so I'm going to stop. But I will say, this mod is maybe my favorite thing I've found in a while.

      There are a couple exceptions, such as the dark maze and the backrooms area, but for the most part any non-house areas are connected back to a house-layout area, such as the plane or the locker room maze - even the convenience store is half of the house, making the parking lot and road count as a mere extension of the house. It's hilarious to look at the game's map and it's just all the same place, even some like the airport and that part of the brutalist maze having visibly scaled-up but otherwise identical layouts.

      That's what liminal spaces are all about. Doom is a perfect medium for it, because in Doom it's less you being locked in with monsters and more them being locked in with you, so the space itself has to actually be well-crafted to be unsettling. All (most) of the areas share the house's basic layout, warped and twisted in places or added onto with new sections, and the strange, looping space messes with your perception of scale and distance making it feel truly endless. Everything else may be stuck in there with you, but you're still all stuck in there.

It all lies in the execution. The map deliberately leads you into thinking the author just did some basic-level stuff- the teleports when moving into the basement initially are very obvious- and gradually has everything completely unravel into madness.

    @STOPSYPHER Рік тому +874

    I’d love to see the doom builder blueprint for this map. They clearly use lots of portals (to seamlessly transition between new areas/different iterations of the house) and to go down into the basement. Because you can’t build floors on top of eachother in doom builder. The same goes for the holes you can fall down, it’s all portals. But what you can do to make a basement, is build a staircase leading down, and put a interactive portal in the middle of where the door would be. So that when the door is opened, it’s a portal to the “basement” which is really an entirely separate portion of the map that isn’t even attached to the rest, and has its own portal in its entrance which is connected to the one in the staircase doorway. But the portals make it look seamless as if the floors are built on top of one another, if that makes any sense. Like in the doom builder engine, (if you don’t know much about mapping, it’s a 2D blueprint that you basically draw your map onto and work from there. It’s not a 3D zone you can look around in) the basement couldn’t be below the ground floor. On the blueprint, the basement would be completely detached from the house.

    If there's one thing that really gets me about this, it's the feeling of powerlessness. There's all these memes about "if doom guy was here" in all sorts of horror games(backrooms), the monsters would be running from him. But in this version, actually being doom guy, you still feel afraid, even when there there aren't actually any monsters outside of the normal doom enemies (and Shrek). You feel like you're going to have to be the one reacting instead of searching and it makes you feel powerless, like you're not the one in control. You're fighting against an invisible enemy the entire time, and this makes you feel unnerved and afraid everywhere you go, even as doom guy with all the weapons. Just goes to show how atmosphere, sound design, and suspense can really make a game.

      It's especially wild because it shows a *lot* of restraint. When you initially go into the house, it's pretending to just be a Boom-compatible map at most; the "compromises" made to make the downstairs work are very obvious and apparent (if you look up in the main house, you'll see the upstairs abruptly get walled off once you get low enough down the stairs), and even once the house changes for the first time, it's still not TOO crazy. The doors are polyobjects now, the two floors are a bit more cleanly integrated now, no big deal.
      And then everything just gradually unwinds more, and more, and more. Whoever made the map got a *lot* of use out of the line portal special, let me tell you!

    for those who don't know, this mod is a reference to "House of leaves" its a book about a house that changes itself on the inside. I highly recommend you checking it out if you like stuff like that. (I in no way say that this mod IS the house of leaves, it just references it. Also, there is another video that explains its ties to the house of leaves. If you would like that video id be happy to source it.)

    This is probably one of the best examples of internet horror (or creepy internet things) that I’ve seen in a verrryyyy long time. I never got into the whole back room stuff because it’s so corny, but this is so incredible. From things like the engine breaking rooms, animating changing to every map being laid out as “my house” is just so well thought out. I’ve seen way too many videos on this wad already hahah
    This genuinely feels like a piece of haunted media.

And as hard as it will be for me to ever take this level seriously again, and not think of non-Euclidian drifting a lawnmower over a PNG painting of Shrek, I doubt I'd have the nerve to try and beat this level in GZdoomVR (if it ever works for it that is.)
