THE AGITATOR
A downloadable mod
One day, a pissed off skeleton showed up at the UAC headquarters, cut a watercooler in half with his impressive (but dull) sword and wouldn't shut up until they shoved him into a teleporter so he could be a nuisance elsewhere.
He also wants to buy a bigger mausoleum for him and his skeleton wife and his skeleton children.
They promised they'll pay him if he kills monsters across time and space.
The pay is good and dental is great, too.
Further plot not required.

This is a collaboration between me and Skelegant. I handled the code and she handled spriting. This is my very first mod for Doom, so I'm just happy I was able to release something I find quite fun. :)
This mod is just a simple weaponset. There's no reloading or altfires, it's just you and 9 different weapons which all hit considerably harder than vanilla . Needless to say, it also doesn't include any custom maps.
FEATURES
- Smooth-ish animations
- Punchy guns
- Weapon select sounds
- Heretic and Chex Quest compatibility through a GZDoom-specific add-on
- A funny skeleton man voiced by ShallowVA
THE WEAPONS
- Slot 1 - Eviscerator Blade: A hard-hitting sword that swings quite fast. Replaces the fist.
- Slot 1A - Haunted Lighter: Shoots a string of homing fireballs. Replaces the chainsaw and uses mana for ammo.
- Slot 2 - Skullcracker Special: Your pistol. Hits hard, is perfectly accurate and can be fired faster by tapping the fire button. Great for sniping.
- Slot 3 - Trenchgun: A solid shotgun. Not as accurate as the vanilla one, but it's about 50% stronger and a little faster too.
- Slot3A - Bolt Thrower: Uses 3 shells to shoot 7 nails that pierce any monsters in their path. The nails are affected by gravity, reducing their effective range. Replaces the SSG.
- Slot 4 - The Rattler: Decently powerful rapid-fire rifle using the same ammo as the pistol. Quite accurate out to medium distances. Replaces the chaingun.
- Slot 5 - Hellish Gauntlet: Shoots a powerful fireball that explodes for heavy damage, then spawns smaller fireballs that also explode in a smaller radius. Replaces the rocket launcher.
- Slot 6 - Dual MGs: High-powered machineguns that hit hard and shoot fast, but are quite inaccurate over long distances. Replaces the plasma rifle.
- Slot 7 - The Agitator-206K: Burst-fire explosive launcher. Uses 10 cursed ammo per shot and shoots in 3 round bursts. Each projectile has a damaging aura around it as it flies, then explodes for very heavy damage in a huge radius.

Install instructions
This mod uses the MBF21 standard's DSDHacked, which allows for fairly extensive changes to the gameplay without relying on a more advanced port like GZDoom. Click this for a list of ports that support DSDHacked.
I especially recommend Nugget Doom for its blend of old and new!
By using the included Added Calcium add-on, this mod can also be played in Heretic and Chex Quest through GZDoom only.
You need a copy of Doom 1/2 to play this mod. Alternatively you could use FreeDoom instead.

Mod looks cool, I've downloaded it! I love the health pickups replaced to be milk.
While downloading, itch.io flagged this page mistakenly as "quarantined" with a big warning that may discourage people from downloading it, saying there is "activity from brazil" and that there have been "try my game" type of scams going around. Its a false alarm, this mod is legit if anyone else runs into the same scare. 👍
