can go along together BEWARE.WAD (E2 M6) --- The best one so far!
Difficulty of Map : VERY easy, more for looks and fun than challenge
(My first Wad, so it is just there to explore
fun staircases, light levels, drop-offs, etc.)
Level basis : Completely from scratch
Editor(s) used : DEU 5.0 and BSP 1.0 (binary space partitioner)

Quick Notes on Gameplay : Simple, short, and only the beginning of the
group of wads I made. Give it a whirl just
for the visual enjoyment of the main staircase!
(SEE BELOW ABOUT CIRCULAR STAIRCASE)
Interesting : * Beginning staircase whips light levels right up and
Features throughout this oversized "hole-in-the-ground" set of
steps. Pick up the launcher, and watch the slop meat
fly when you blast the poor, unaware (unable to move
also... hehheheh!) guards on the lowest stairs. They
sure do slide uphill pretty well! ..... Yuck.
* Several secrets to find, both intriguing and dangerous.
* Not bad for my first wad (I hope.... :) )

Time allotted for : Not much. This is my first Wad, so don't
creation of map expect the thrill of BEWARE.WAD, 'cause that
one is really the AWESOME one... this Wad is
short, fun and interesting visually for the
most part. Don't expect hours of gameplay.
I warned you here, but that doesn't mean the
wad is junk. Go for this baby! DRKSTAIR.WAD
is a good 15 minutes of great fun!!!
FIND B E W A R E . W A D ---- THAT ONE
IS REALLY A CHALLENGING, WELL-CREATED,
THEME-BASED WAD. JUST HARD ENOUGH TO
KEEP YOU FROM HAVING TO IDKFA, OR IDDQD IT!!!
B E W A R E . . . .
