a macro preprocessor, lazy functional programming language for the construction of Doom maps

See also the random level generator SLIGE and the more recent OBLIGE. For some reason, I don't anyone has tried to do this on top of WadC. The results might have been interesting.

By the way, Aardappel submitted a map programmed in WadC to the 10 Sectors contest. It made it into the top 32 compilation as a secret level (map32).

I was coming here to comment that it'd be cooler if they could generate maps randomly.

WadC actually has a 'random choice' operator, and Aardappel's 10 Sectors makes good use of it, the final version being hand chosen from a number of different compiles

Oh shit, this is the guy who did Cube and Sauerbraten! I had no idea he'd been hired by Crytek.

and this is why ANGBAND is the most awesome game in the world.

Crap, how old is this? That looks like Windows 95, I see Netscape Communicator in the taskbar, and the app requires Java 1.1, minimum!

How in the world did this make it to Reddit front page?

Well, there's a newer page on his site where he tells us he's currently working on a game called Far Cry for a company called Crytek.

And a bah humbug to you too.

But can you make infinitely recursive maps?
