Today Patrick Martin and I release a new version of Soul Of Evil: Indian Summer, which includes the following:

-A new map, Nsoe6: Summer's End, with 300+ monsters, including previously unused ones such as the Warlock and Gremlins.

-Newly rebalanced gameplay throughout the episode, both maps and monster code, making the fights fairer while remaining challenging.

-Other new features and items including a new version of the legendary Mjolnir, Dragon Armour, and the deadly MIRV.

MIRV is some deadly virus you can infect monsters with and then spreads through unprotected infighting right?

Heh

I should explain that whoever wants to play ONLY the new map, should download the new release, then enter the game and then command "map nsoe6" (enter) - and I believe you will find that map worthwhile. I admit 28 MBs is not what it once was.

you can play that map starting with no weapons?

nonentity: Assuming you are serious, MIRV stands for Multiple Independently Targeted Reentry Vehicle. In nsoe, the MIRV Launcher launches a big guided missile that can split up into multiple smaller homing rockets. Its power level is about on par with a BFG.

yes, you can start with no weapons, and all the weapons are provided at appropriate stages in nsoe6.

Thanks Tronyn!

I definitely enjoyed NSOE more this time around, mostly because the gameplay is more balanced and not stupendously hard.

Although all maps are great fun, the last map is nothing short of amazing, and is the only one in the pack that rapes my PC framerate wise. Well done. ;)

Thank You

Did you take some inspiration from nethack? Good combo. Thanks for the source.

It's way too hard for me on Normal, gotta try Easy.

Inspirations

gb: Yes, for a few things, such as the amulet of reflection and dragon armor.
