Base:	MAP01 - From scratch MAP02 - From scratch MAP03 - Modified E2M3 MAP04 - From scratch MAP05 - From scratch MAP06 - Modified example PWAD supplied with DoomEd for Windows MAP07 - From scratch MAP08 - From scratch
Build time:	You really don't want to know. Years. Mostly struggling with editors. Once I got DCK, things got much faster. The levels done with DEU and DoomEd took weeks each; with DCK it is just days. Also huge amounts of time improving and refining the levels.
Editor(s) used:	Originally DoomEd, DoomEdPM, DEU Then I found DCK v3.61 and it's far better. DEUTEX for compiling.
Bugs:	None major - some rough walls and minor clipping effects

Reviews:

Competent but kinda boring	x
It's certainly not boring IMO. I actually agree with a review it good on Doom Underground - the look and construction is definitely just OK but it is fun to play. 8 decent size levels, lots of monsters. 4/5	x

Colin Phipps - I am a student, and I also do WAD reviews. Check

Description             :

This episode for DOOM ][ combines the graphics and style of the 
original DOOM Knee-Deep in the Dead  with the difficulty, new 
monsters, weapons and textures of the comercial game.  There are 
also a number of new textures, mainly created by rearranging old 
textures, and some new animated computer textures.

If you like these levels, please let me know what you liked most. 
They don't take long to make using DCK, though I seem to spend 
ages improving them. If I get some feedback then I will probably 
complete my scheme to extend it to 11 levels. Who knows, maybe 
more?

Equally, if there is something which you thing is bad about 
these levels, let me know. I have had little feedback about 
them so far, so all feedback is appreciated.
