''High Noon Drifter'' is a mod for ''{{VideoGame/Doom}}'' authored by [=TerminusEst13=], replacing the Doomguy and his high-tech arsenal with the Drifter, a mysterious spirit-ridden cowboy named Corzo whose tools are... [[ArchaicWeaponForAnAdvancedAge more traditional]]. Rather than [[PlasmaCannon Plasma Rifles]] and {{Chainsaw|Good}}s, Corzo carries around a slew of antiquated arms: from a [[RevolversAreJustBetter powerful revolver]] to a MagicStaff, he'll slay the demonic hordes just as easily as Doomguy can.

Added DiffLines:

* SpaceWestern: The mod stars a demon-slaying cowboy in the futuristic setting of the ''Doom'' series and gives the weapons and powerups a Western-esque aesthetic. The fact that you're facing the forces of Hell pushes it into WeirdWest.

* SlideAttack: The original sprint function is replaced with a classic ''VideoGame/{{Mega Man|Classic}}''-style slide. Enemies that aren't already alerted to you won't notice you until you come out of the slide, and depending on your mod settings you can even use it to pass under obstacles that are otherwise too low for even normal source-port crouching to allow you to get under.

By TRS decision Whip It Good is now a disambiguation page. Moving entries to appropriate tropes when possible.


* WeaponizedHeadgear: DoubleSubverted, as throwing one's hat deals chip damage, only enough to kill enemies that themselves have one hitpoint, and is mainly used to distract monsters. On the other hand, having a berserk powerup turns it into a FingerPokeOfDoom.
* WhipItGood: The Drifter's whip, bound to alt-fire by default.

* TakeThat: Loading this mod with ''Videogame/BrutalDoom'' will cause The Drifter's guns to shoot gibs, eventually killing performance. WordOfGod has confirmed that he doesn't hate ''Brutal Doom'', it's just that he got annoyed at people complaining about bugs whose cause always boiled down to "tried to run it alongside ''Brutal Doom''" (which it is incompatible with, since both replace many of the same things), so, like sister mod ''[=DemonSteele=]'' (which spawns a horde of invincible golden Revenants if it detects ''Brutal Doom'' running alongside it), he made the guns shoot gibs, so that if someone complains about bugs and mentions this, he would immediately know what the problem was.
