Title:	The Call of Ktulu
Filename:	levels/doom2/Ports/j-l/ktulu.zip

Author:	Rudy Jurjako
Description:	A marble castle and the surrounding caves and mountains. The name comes from the music, "The Call of Ktulu" by Metallica. The music fits the mood of the level perfectly and I thought the name did, too. I think this is a pretty hard wad, but I spent a lot of time implementing the skill levels so hopefully everyone will find a level corresponding to his or her skills. If you have any comments about this wad I'd love to hear them!
Credits:	id Software for the greatest game I've ever played, Ben Morris for DCK, Olivier Montanuy for Wintex, Denis Möller for NWT, Jens Hykkelbjerg for RMB, everyone who made the textures I used (and Metallica for the song!), and of course, TeamTNT for BOOM!
Base:	New level from scratch
Build time:	Summer '98 (June-August)
Editor(s) used:	DCK 2.22 (main design), Deth (for all those Boom- specific features), Wintex 3.41, NWT 1.3, RMB 3.0
Bugs:	Right, like I would release a level with KNOWN bugs. But if you find any, please let me know.
