Feuer Frei

Thursday · 7 Nov 02 · 05:28 PM IST | Posted by Karthik | Category: General

On 4th (Diwali festival day), I downloaded quite a few MP3s.  One of them is a song called Feuer Frei by Rammstein.  It is the song that appears in the first scene in XXX, and the band themselves are there in the movie.  I liked this song, and that's why I downloaded it.  It's also interesting for me because it is the first German song I'm listening to!  I got the lyrics as well and it was interesting to see how they sang it, even though I couldn't understand the words.  By the way, I also downloaded Adrenaline by Gavin Rossdale, which is the song that appears during the end credits of the same movie.

On that same day, I did something unusual, I made a Doom II map!  Now it is not complete, but in the afternoon I just opened up my editor and made a few rooms, and I had a very small map in front of me!  It is a very cramped level, just like my original Out of Phase, and it has just 4 or 5 rooms.  That level was also built very quickly, just in two days I think.  So this level, if I get it done and released, will be called Out of Phase 3 probably.

And finally my site is appearing in Google.  All this time, if you searched for the word karthik, it would show my old Doom site in the list.  Now this site appears in the search results, and last time I checked, it was #4.

I just had a look at my hit counter (which, if you didn't know, is at the bottom of the main page) in the afternoon, and it is showing 1950, which is a cool thing - whoever is visitor #2000, see if you can send me a screenshot!

Dark Fate 2 is a singleplayer level for Doom II, replacing MAP01.  It's a small-sized hellish level — and there's a walkthrough video as well.
