Misc. Author Info : After I graduaded fromt the University I decided to
build a really good looking deathmatch/single
player wad. I already build around 10 other nice
wads, but this one should become the crown on my
work. And in my opinion it is!
I hope you will enjoy playing it as much as I do.

Description : Very large DOOM II wad, with lots of monsters,
little ammo/medipacks and great deathmatch
capabilities. I designed it to be a lot of fun in
single player mode, but kept in mind that it
ultimatly should become a deathmatch wad.
I created a 'circular' shaped map, with one central
point, and the three keys hidden around this point.
All keys are needed to reach the exit, but its not
necessary to first find a certain key before
another one can be found. Just collect all three.
No hard puzzles should be solved to find the
keys/exit (all doors hiding the keys are automati-
cally opened when you get close!), but it is
necessary to go around the central point to get
them, and that's the hard part ;-) Because all
rooms can be reached in many different ways, and
have nice ambush spots it's great fun to play
deathmatch, although the map is too large for a
two-player deathmatch, I guess. A lot of time was
spend on choosing the correct texture and aligning
them, because I hate it when a level doesn't
look good.
I think its a tough level, but playable. Tough,
not because there are 20 cyberdemons etc.
No cyberdemons, no spiderboss! Just a few
large bosses and lots of imps, sargeants etc.
I created this level myself, but if I want to go
around and kill all monsters as fast as possible,
it takes me at least 10-15 minutes to reach the
exit!
Hints : - I added just a few medipacks, to make it harder
to survive, but at strategic places a radiation
suite can be found, and when starting the level
a megasphere is very near by!
- All rooms/keys can be entered via different ways.
Sometimes the most logical way is not the easiest
one!
- You can just go around, collect the keys, killing
monsters with your shotgun and exit, but a lot of
'hidden' rooms can make your life much easier,
and some are even necessary because they
contain the ammo you will definitly need!
