The maps in this mappack all mimick the gameplay style of the famous NES game
Duckhunt. The three maps are different flavors of the same thing. Where the
original "Duckhunt" map uses assets that look like Duckhunt, the "Duckhunt
DOOM!" version looks like the id Software classic Doom and the "Duckhunt Holo!"
version looks like a grid-based, 80's inspired holographic VR experience.
All three maps play exactly the same. They only differ visually.
Points are scored by damaging enemies as usual in EntityPlus, but an actual
kill nets you a bonus 20 points. The maps last for 60 seconds after which
the scoreboard is shown. The red dots on the floor indicate the time remaining.
Each dot represents 10 seconds. Obviously, you cannot move around the map.
Since you cannot die, the difficulty level has little influence on the
actual difficulty of the map. Enemies might be slightly more difficult to
actually kill in one shot (on easy they have 6 health, on nightmare 14, which
is more damage than a single shotgun pellet deals), you do get a score bonus
in EntityPlus depending on your difficulty level. Playing below the medium
difficulty level therefore seems pointless (enemies have 10 health on medium,
enough to get killed by a single shotgun pellet).
Shooting the dog, Hellknight or Pinky demon does not offer any rewards. The
Hellknight cannot harm you, even though it shoots a bolt of plasma.
There are no secrets to be found.
