History VideoGame / HuntersMoon

* DummiedOut: Due to the mod's long development cycle, this was bound to happen.
** There was a much different Map Pack in the past, featuring two maps of admittedly very odd design (including a rising lava room) and unpolished Mehanir and Veltanir battles.
** Nakiel was a playable character that used, as its model... the Guardian from Doom 3. No wonder it was removed.
** Before Tyzen's creation, there was a strange character by the name of Rahor, but it was never fully completed.
** There used to be two upgraded versions of existing weapons, the Dark Railgun and the Cynetik Shotgun. They were replaced by the Trakion Cannon and the Cynetik Striker Cannon respectively.

** Mega Health grants you 100 overstacking health.

** Regeneration quickly regenerates both health and armor for a limited time.

* ShoutOut: Monoliths of Agora is directly based on the game VideoGame/{{Paragon}}, and all Map Pack maps are decorated with statues of its characters, as well as some from VideoGame/DarkSiders. Also, the mod is named after a [[https://youtu.be/ISEOyKGGmOU track]] by Music/TwoStepsFromHell.

* BoringButPractical: Unlike usual Doom and Quake, the Rocket Launcher is your main weapon, and while it doesn't have the Shotgun's flash and awesome factor, it's much more efficient at taking down simple encounters and its ammo is plentiful.

* ShortRangeShotgun: Mostly; while it IS short-range, many of the enemies you'll use it will die even by a longer range shot from it or are giant major bosses where no aim is required.

* WeatherManipulation: Mehanir forces a thunderstorm in Thunder Dread until he is killed. The rain stays, however.

* WeatherManipulation: Mehanir forces a thunderstorm in Thunder Dread until he is killed. The rain stays, however.
* TheMinionMaster: Bones via his Unbury the Dead ability, which summons a bunch of armed skeletons. Klesk will also be this in the future.
* TheTurretMaster: Lucy has a Perimeter Turret ability, making her vital in Monoliths of Agora's first waves.

* UseItem: The vehicle wireframes and the OEDB, ala VideoGame/Heretic.

* UnusableEnemyEquipment: Justified; in the mod's lore, the Arena Warriors are physically incapable of using any weapon that has not been integrated into Arena Eternal. The Alliance has however managed to hack a few weapons inside the systems, including the vehicles.

In 2011, a user by the name of Revilution (now going by Zanieon) decided that a singleplayer and co-op mode for VideoGame/{{Quake III Arena}} would have actually been pretty cool. So he made a VideoGame/{{Doom}} [[GameMod mod]] for it. ''Hunter's Moon'' is a total conversion mod for the original Doom, bringing in the playable Arena Warriors and weapons roster from Quake 3 (plus a few characters and weapons that are either original or transplanted from other games) into a Singleplayer/Co-Op PvE environment. The mod stands out among other contemporary Doom mods for its usage of 3D models for both aesthetics and gameplay, and comes with its own unique monster roster featuring enemies modified and twisted from VideoGame/{{Doom 3}} and VideoGame/{{Doom 2016}}.

The mod can be downloaded [[https://www.moddb.com/mods/hunters-moon here]] and offers full compatibility with the [=GZDoom=] source port, with gameplay-only compatibility for the Zandronum source port.

Currently, the mod features four "Dungeon" maps - standalone bonus levels of which three contain their own exclusive boss - an unfinished tutorial map, and a special coop-only Tower Defense map. A full, multi-level campaign is currently in the works, complete with a proper narrative and interactable {NPCs}.

* EverythingFades: Necessary but configurable due to {{GZDoom}}'s general unoptimization.

* GatlingGood: The Chaingun here takes it UpToEleven, having the ''highest normally possible rate of fire in {{GZDoom}}.''

* HarderThanHard: The Vadrigar Reincarnation skill level and the "Difficulty: Extreme" dungeons are NOT kidding; they are far harsher than anything else in the mod right now.

* EldritchLocation: The Temple of the Portals, and also Hell.

In 2011, a user by the name of Revilution (now going by Zanieon) decided that a singleplayer and co-op mode for VideoGame/{{Quake III Arena}} would have actually been pretty cool. So he made a VideoGame/{{Doom}} [[GameMod mod]] for it.
''Hunter's Moon'' is total conversion mod for the original Doom, bringing in the playable Arena Warriors and weapons roster from Quake 3 (plus a few characters and weapons that are either original or transplanted from other games) into a Singleplayer/Co-Op PvE environment. The mod stands out among other contemporary Doom mods for its usage of 3D models for both aesthetics and gameplay, and comes with its own unique monster roster featuring enemies modified and twisted from VideoGame/{{Doom 3}} and VideoGame/{{Doom 2016}}.

* BarrierWarrior: Most of the Scout-role characters.

* BerserkButton: Unfair matches seem to be this for Mehanir, as he only gets enraged when two or more players are fighting him.

** The BFG 10k, of course.
** The Cynetik Striker Cannon is quite like this.
* BlackSpeech: The Black Totem recites in this.
* BloodierAndGorier: The new gore effects are... splatterrific, to say the least.
* BloodKnight: The alternate version of Doomslayer portrayed here is more like this than the original TerrorHero.
* BlownAcrossTheRoom: Mehanir's Arcane Stones can do this to you.

* BottomlessMagazines: No weapon ever needs to reload, as in the original.

* ChainsawGood: As in Quake 3, the Gauntlet.

* DeathIsNotPermanent: Lore-wise, the Arena Warriors can infinitely respawn in set locations of the Temple.
* DefeatEqualsExplosion: The Astral Rages and the Helltime Hunters (although only the former actually causes damage to anything).
* DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu: Every time you defeat a major boss.

** The Map Pack bosses are as gratifying to defeat as they are hard.

* EasterEgg: In Path to Oblivion you can find a greek caryatid to place on a certain altar. It will play a musical track once it is. This references the "aesthethic" memes of the late 2010s. Also, if you kill enough enemies with the Life Binder's explosion, the game will reference the Phil Swift "That's a lotta damage!" meme from roughly the same timeframe.
* EldritchAbomination: The Tamers of the Dark are this, and the Vadrigar themselves had become this thanks to how advanced they were technologically and magically. The Elder Gods also exist in lore, but seem not to be making an appearance (yet).

* EmptyShell: Fritzkrieg.
* EnemySummoner: Summoners, Curse Hearts, some Bloodstones, the Black Totem and Veltanir.
* EverythingFades: Necessary due to GZDOOM's general unoptimization.

* ExplodingBarrels: Enhanced in function compared to Doom's. The Astral Rages can also be used as this.
* FlechetteStorm: Pi's ability, 1000 Knives.
* FlunkyBoss: The Black Totem and Veltanir.

* Main/{{Gorn}}: Gibbing many enemies in one shot is rather easy and very, very satisfying.
* HarderThanHard: The Vadrigar Reincarnation skill level and the "Difficulty: Extreme" dungeons are NOT kidding.
* HearingVoices: Klesk, as well as possibly Grunt, Ranger and Doom.
* HeWhoFightsMonsters: Doomslayer.
* {{Hitscan}}: While most modern Doom mods avert this, Hunter's Moon plays this straight for zombies, some player weapons, and the Asmodeus' twin chainguns.
* HumongousMecha: The Cyclops Heavywalker is this.

* InvulnerableAttack: Mehanir's OneHitKill move.
* LighterAndSofter: Sort of. The outlook of the mod is generally far less desperate and nihilistic than in the official Quake series.
* LudicrousGibs: And ''how.''
* KnifeNut: Pi, to the point she disturbed ''Sorlag.'' Yep, THAT Sorlag.

* NoOshaCompliance: As seen in Rarlocan Main Base, the Temple doesn't really care about safety.

* OriginalGeneration: The Alliance, Tyzen and Zanieon are this.
* OverarchingVillain: Hell.
* OverdrawnAtTheBloodBank: One has to wonder just how much blood those demons have in their bodies.

* RedEyesTakeWarning: The Cyberdemon and the Asmodeus.
* SecondaryFire: The Ultimate Fire Mode is a special attack avaiable for some guns, namely the original Quake 3 ones except the Gauntlet and the Machinegun. It takes 50 kills to use, and consumes the weapon's ammo if present.
* ShortRangeShotgun: Mostly.
* ShoutOut: Monoliths of Agora is directly based on the game VideoGame/{{Paragon}}, and all Map Pack maps are decorated with statues of its characters. Also, the mod is named after a [[https://youtu.be/ISEOyKGGmOU track]] by Music/TwoStepsFromHell.

* TankGoodness: The GEV Tank.
* UltraSuperDeathGoreFestChainsawer3000: Especially in large-scale battles.
* UnusableEnemyEquipment: Justified; in the mod's lore, the Arena Warriors are physically incapable of using any weapon that has not been integrated into Arena Eternal. The Alliance has managed to hack a few weapons inside the systems, including the vehicles.
* UpToEleven: Definitely when compared to official Doom and Quake games, featuring gigantic MMO-like bosses as if completely normal and much bigger battles that can involve massive amounts of enemies.
* UseItem: The vehicle wireframes and the OEDB.
* VillainTeleportation: The Summoner and the Harvester, as well as the Wraith. Mehanir also does this.

* TheMinionMaster: Bones. Klesk will also be this in the future.
* TheTurretMaster: Lucy is this, making her vital in Monoliths of Agora's first sections.

Back in 2011, an user by the name of Revilution (today Zanieon, after one of the mod's original characters), realized that a singleplayer and coop VideoGame/{{Quake III Arena}} would have been actually pretty cool. So he made a VideoGame/{{Doom}} [[GameMod mod]] for it. ''Hunter's Moon'' is built upon GZDOOM (with its gameplay component also being compatible with Zandronum) and can be downloaded [[https://www.moddb.com/mods/hunters-moon here]]. It has been reworked numerous times, but with the second release of the Map Pack, it seems to finally be steering towards a very clear direction. The current edition features the complete monster roster (with possibly additions and reworks to happen), handpicked, modified and twisted from VideoGame/{{Doom 3}} and VideoGame/{{Doom 2016}}, the full weapon roster which includes guns not present in the original game, four "Dungeon" maps of which three contain their own exclusive boss, an unfinished tutorial map, and a special coop-only Tower Defense map, Monoliths of Agora. It is notable among other mods for its usage of 3D models for both aesthethics and gameplay.

* OneUp: The Life Binder acts as this, but you may only carry one at a time.
* ActionBomb: The Astral Rages.
* ActionGirl: All of them.

* HitScan: While most modern Doom mods avert this, Hunter's Moon plays this straight for zombies, some player weapons, and the Asmodeus' twin chainguns.

* EverythingFades: Necessary due to GZDoom's general unoptimization.

* AnAxeToGrind: The Barons and Veltanir have one.

* EldritchAbomination: The Tamers of the Dark are this, as well as the Temple of the Portals itself. The Elder Gods also exist in lore, but seem not to be making an appearance (yet).

** The Chaingun certainly qualifies, due to its extremely high power and speed.

* CrisisCrossover: The story is heavily this, with most characters from Quake having to defeat Doom's Hell and the Tamers of the Dark.

* EasterEgg: In Path to Oblivion you can find a greek caryatid to place on a certain altar. It will play a musical track once it is. This references the "aesthethic" memes of the late 2010s. Also, if you kill enough enemies with the Life Binder's explosion, the game will reference the Phil Swift "That's a lotta damage!" meme from roughly the same times.
* EldritchAbomination: The Tamers of the Dark are absolutely this, as well as the Temple of the Portals itself.
* EvilTaintedThePlace: Most notable in Glimpse of Dimensions, where the area is visibly warped by the forces of Hell.

* GameMod: A LOT, to the point the gameplay component is almost unplayable with standard maps and necessitates of patched versions of those or the Map Pack.

* LighterAndSofter: Sort of. The outlook of the mod is far less desperate and nihilistic than in the official Quake series.

* UpToEleven: Definitely when compared to official Doom and Quake games, featuring gigantic MMO-like bosses as if completely normal, much bigger battles that can involve massive amounts of enemies.

* VillainTeleportation: The Summoner and the Harvester, as well as the Wraith. Mehanir also does this.

* ShoutOut: Monoliths of Agora is directly based on the game VideoGame/{{Paragon}}, and all Map Pack maps are decorated with statues of its characters. Also, the mod is named after a [[https://youtu.be/ISEOyKGGmOU track]] by Music/{{TwoStepsFromHell}}.
