comment
TurboCharged ARCADE! is a Game Mod for Doom II, made by Xaser and the TcA Masters, and requires ZDoom to run.The mod is a different approach to the world of Doom's gameplay, taking an arcade-like style. Instead of being confined to a certain set of maps in a single order, TcA allows the player to select his own path through each of the levels. Along with this, most maps served up a different style of gameplay. While some maps are pure shoot-em-up, others include puzzles, insane stylish moves, and so on. The mod runs on the Rule of Funny, with a few beta testers reported as almost dying from laughter. And on top of all this, the core aspect of the gameplay has been changed thanks to the inclusion of a 2x speed patch. Everything now runs at twice the speed; monsters, weapons, etc.Can be downloaded online.A Mission-Pack Sequel was released, and plays exactly like the first installment.Compare REELism.

Failure Is the Only Option
 TurboCharged ARCADE! (Video Game) / int_260926c3
comment
Failure Is the Only Option: The player dies EVERY TIME he finishes a level. And comes back from the dead. And vice versa, like a cycle. Discussed in "Ask The Wise Guy" where the Doomguy is seeking the title wise guy and asks if there's a way out of his endless cycle. Said Wise Guy says no and kills him. And subverted in the very same episode's Easter Egg, where you telefrag the wise guy and reign supreme.

Easter Egg
 TurboCharged ARCADE! (Video Game) / int_29a39f6
comment
Easter Egg: There's a big one in "Ask The Wise Guy" where instead of heading up the stairs to meet said Wise Guy, you can make a series of tough jumps and find a cave where Kate, one of the WAD's designers, resides and can have an adventure game-style conversation with you. Afterward you can enter the portal behind her and even get an alternate ending! And one where the player DOESN'T die for once! You telefrag the Wise Guy who forgot to turn off the portal. Oh, and if you step into the portal before talking to Kate, you die. Didn't your mother tell you not to go into strange portals? One can make a complicated sequence of jumps in "The Matrix Has You" during the second Bullet Time segment. If the player lands on a giant WTF placed on a rooftop, time will go back to normal, and the player can find an image of a catgirl labelled Not Aeris (No, not that THAT one.) as well as two keys, a +1 key of uselessness that takes you to the boss fight and a -1 key of Wrong Turn which kills you. In "Merry Shitmas", the player's opening line is randomised. Furthermore there's a door in the player's kitchen that the game repeatedly tells you has nothing of use behind it. Keep clicking on it though and eventually it opens...revealing a bunch of useful goodies.

Artifact of Doom
 TurboCharged ARCADE! (Video Game) / int_3b5fcbb7
comment
Artifact of Doom: "Museum Raider" involves the player sneaking into a museum to steal a cursed, priceless 24-carrot diamond that brings bad luck to anyone who holds it. Apparently, it took 5 museum curators to seal it in its vault as they were all rapidly crushed by randomly falling anvils. Sure enough, he becomes one of the diamond's victims, being crushed by an elephant.

The game, embarrassed, tells the player not to speak of it again.
