Welcome to Dean of Doom, the show where we give grades to classic and contemporary Doom wads. Why? Because ranking things is fun. Today’s episode will be dedicated to Speed of Doom, a megawad released in 2010 by Josh Sealy and Darkwave0000, who divided the work so evenly between them they actually alternate: excluding the secret maps, the odd-numbered slots are all Joshy’s, with Darkwave handling the evens. It also features the musical stylings of then-up-and-coming MIDI magicians Stuart Rynn and Jimmy Paddock, who contributed over twenty original tracks which have seen use in many more projects thereafter. Taking inspiration from such classics as Alien Vendetta, Scythe 1 and 2, Hell Revealed, and the Plutonias, Speed of Doom is a classic-style megawad that its creators originally planned to finish at a clip of one map per week; a process dubbed “semi-speed mapping” in the text file. In the end, seven days couldn’t contain the two mappers’ ambitions, and the finale they ended up producing was much grander than they expected. I, for one, am very glad things turned out the way they did: Speed of Doom is a dynamic, delightful collision of two creative minds at work. I’m excited to get into this one. • Link to the megawad: • https://www.doomworld.com/idgames/lev... • Special thanks to DCG Retrowave for providing this episode's MIDI (channel link: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4xH..., and King Kool for the new dunce cap design. • Patreon: • / mtpain27
