Other Files By Author : First standalone release
Misc. Author Info : Played Doom when it came out, in 1996 created one
proper (but unreleased) map, lost interest in
gaming in the late 90s, regained interest in Doom
during the Corona pandemic, started mapping again
in summer 2023.
Description : A small retro-feeling, oldschooly techbase map
(basically four rooms, hence the title), using
vanilla textures only, except for the sky. Lots of
secrets to discover! (Please let me know if you
found them all without cheating.)
An earlier version of this map is part of the RAMP
2023 community project. For this standalone
release, I fixed some issues which became apparent
during playthroughs by various people, added some
more details, and spiced up the difficulty a bit.
No jumping/croughing.
Freelook allowed/encouraged.
Additional Credits to : Music track "Time Consuming" by Grizzly Old B and
Growmatic Beats. Sky based on a photo from Juergen
Fastje. Thanks a lot to the RAMP 2023 community for
playtesting the RAMP version and providing valuable
feedback! Special thanks to JediMB for help with
scripting the crusher room!
