Title                   : DARK FATE

Date Finished           : 19 April 2003
Author                  : Karthik Abhiram
Email Address           : [email protected]
Misc. Author Info       : 20 year old Doomer from India, for more info
                         see http://karthik82.com.  There's lots of stuff
                         over there, both Doom and non-Doom related.

Description             : "Dark Fate" is a fast paced single player
                         level for Doom II, inspired by the style of the
                         original Doom's third episode, "Inferno".  This
                         map was made quite fast, in probably about 15-20
                         hours.

                         It is a small map and will take you only a short
                         while to play.  Once you're done with that you
                         might also want to try playing it in deathmatch
                         mode!

Story                   : None (uh, you find yourself in hell and you
                         have to kill demons...)
