PUSS X: Summer of Slaughter is a July through September 2021 speedmapping community project led by BluePineapple72, and the tenth entry in the Pineapple Under the Sea series. Each of the levels was built within 12 hours or less, using a custom resource pack. Mappers were required to build grandiose maps with slaughter-focused gameplay.

There are two versions of this PWAD. The full version (Summer of Slaughter.pk3) contains all levels that were submitted for the event, which required all levels to UDMF-compatible. The second WAD (SOS_BOOM.wad) is a Boom-compatible version that contains placeholder levels for each of the UDMF levels and shifts levels 30-32 to levels 31-33 to account for the hardcoded telefragging parameters.
