Description : This was my second level for Doom made from
scratch. Unlike the first however, this one is
specifically for The Ultimate Doom, because I
wanted to do a lab-themed map and I didn't have
the knowledge of how to edit a WAD to include
more Doom 1 textures into Doom 2.
My goal was to try and improve upon the flaws of
Blaze and I think I mostly succeeded at that. The
level is easier to navigate, it's not
punishingly hard, and the aesthetic is a little
more coherent throughout this time around.
On the other hand, the gameplay is perhaps a bit
too easy and the map design, although more
detailed, is still blocky. Despite these issues,
its my creation from 2011 that has aged the
better, and I'm still proud of the level
size and progression.
The title is A Marine's Dream because I actually
wrote a story for this back in the day: you are
supposed to be an US marine who got the
opportunity to be part of a prestigious research
lab's security, and as soon as you enter it you
see an imp who has just murdered one of your
would-be co-workers, and you have to try to reach
the end of the lab in order to escape because
you forgot the way back into the mountain.
I never wrote a story for a Doom level again.
