Kick Attack!

Kick Attack! is a single-level PWAD designed by Tim Willits and released in 1996. The level was created as a promotional operation (similar to Chex Quest) by to help establish the now-defunct brand of. Graphic and sound replacements are used to change the setting: the demons are replaced by various intruders sent by "Alpine Spew" (an obvious parody of the more successful brand ) to sabotage a Kick bottling plant.

There are two versions of this level - one for Doom and one for Doom II. The two versions have identical gameplay - only the textures and the title screen differ.

Content
In accordance to the theme, several things have been modified. These changes are cosmetic, only affecting visuals and sounds, but not the actor behavior.


 * Surfer mutants
 * These come in two varieties.
 * Bald ones in red and gray wetsuits, with blue sunglasses, who hail you with "hey dude". They replace imps and shoot globs of Alpine Spew.
 * Blond ones in yellow and gray wetsuits, with gray sunglasses, who can only say "spew". They replace sergeants and remain hitscanners.


 * Lounge singers
 * These has-beens roam around, trying to jab you with their microphone. They only know how to say "alright, baby", "take it, baby", and replace the demon.


 * Flying bottles
 * These two-liter bottles of Alpine Spew fly around, charge, and bite. They replace lost souls. Since lost souls and demons share their idle sounds, you can hear them say "take it, baby", too.


 * Giant can of Alpine Spew
 * A gigantic and vaguely anthropomorphic can, equipped with twin chainguns, this monstrosity replaces the spiderdemon and serves as the map's boss, guarding the exit switch.

Inspiration and development
The idea of a promotional Doom level for helping establish Kick! as a beverage for gamers came from the marketing firms Digital Marketing Associates and Dryden and Petisi Promotions, LLC. Besides Tim Willits, Jay Wilbur and Mike Wilson of id Software, as well as James Monroe of Raven Software, helped the production of this project.

The custom graphics were created by Dean Camastro, Anthony Verducci, and Paco Levine, with the Sisson Design Group being contracted for additional graphics.

Trivia
