got some news on dakka:

- the berserk pickup is now replaced with the VAMPIRE SPHERE, which heals you with every kill you make. the more health your kill had, and the less health you have, the more health you get. but it only lasts 30 seconds, so you better pick some fights quickly. check it out in action: https://my.mixtape.moe/wofqcw.mp4

- did you know that KILL scripts are supported by zandronum now? I just found out today, and spent a bunch of time reworking the score system with this in mind. the result of this is that on gzdoom, monster compatibility patches are a thing of the past. zandronum still needs them so that you don't get a score reward every 5000 points no matter what, since it lacks the RGF_NOSIGHT flag on A_RadiusGive. but monsters will always give points now, which is great.

at this point, there's only a few things left before I give this thing a non-alpha release, and those are:
- replacement sounds for the minigun and lancer primary fires, and fist alt-punches
- a BFG rework, since it's kind of the odd gun out now
- an actual pickup sprite for the lancer

anyway here's an alpha version. tell me how I fucked up the balance.
