Interesting idea, but the enemies should be able to be destroyed so they don't get on your way or block your projectiles. This also renders some levels impossible to beat because monsters with special functions, like the Commander Keen, or end episode Bosses, don't trigger them.
I also find it quite overpowered, I could petrify a Cyberdemon with a single blast.
The projectiles should leave no blood trails.
The sprite is also very unappealing, and doesn't fit either Doom or the Raven games.

Honestly I might take this down and re-upload it later when it's in a state I'm happy with, this was pretty rushed because I had the idea and wanted to make something of it before I forgot
