Biotech is Godzilla is a nine-level episode WAD for Doom II designed for limit removing source ports created by various members of the Doomer Boards community, led by Glen McColl (glenzinho). It is the twenty-second entry in the ongoing Doomer Boards Projects and features a forest and nature meets tech theme that was inspired in part by a recent playthrough of Lost Civilization by glenzinho. It was released on the Doomer Boards forum on March 31, 2020, and uploaded to the /idgames archive on April 15.

Story[edit]

Forests of concrete and steel, breathing and flowing forever under the wide eye of the sun, now ruled the works of man. His own eyes watch as hummingbirds swarm their branches and feed from whirring flowers. Long since had a creature like him been to this place, and standing in the midst of this weird marriage of nature and machine, he felt himself an intruder. What happened here, to create this new earth? And what became of those responsible for this ironclad garden of earthly delights?

Before he can finish the thought, the marine's spell is broken by a thundering roar.

Seems not all of man's gifts were of good intention...

Custom monsters[edit]

Cyber baron
A baron of Hell with a deadly single rocket attack.
Cyber imp
An imp that shoots a plasma ball. Still as fragile as ever, but now comes with added lethality.
Lost soul
A reskin of the Forgotten One but hit points have been dropped from 100 to 45, making it convenient to take out with a single shotgun blast or chaingun tap.
