This has some missing textures and maybe a unclosed sector. It's not the best but have played worse. 4/15/07

This is dated July 2000, love to love you baby. It's not bad, although it feels much older. The layout is a wooden dungeon (rather than an actual forest) with 150+ mostly weak baddies. There's a dearth of environmental detail so it feels very bland, and there's nothing obviously source-porty. Starts off easy, gets a tiny bit harder as it goes on. I managed to break the penultimate teleport and never got to play the end battle properly.

The Story: (Here you go all you story obsessed freaks)

In one of the few remaining forests of earth, the UAC has been testing a new type of interdimensional teleportel. Deemed "fail safe," these new models are equipped with spawn seeking BFGs. Of course, to test the BFGs, monster test subject were needed. So, under close supervision, the monsters were kept in individual cages at the base. One day, taking an imp back to a cage, the marine turned around to close the cage up. That split-second cost him his life and soon, most of the monsters were roaming the base.

The few survivors who were able to get to a teleportal knew something had to be done or else the hellspawn would figure out how to disable the security system from inside the base and possibly bring forth another Spawn of Hell even worse then before. This cannot be allowed to happen. So, of course, you're the only man for the job. Dropped off in a courtyard where you were given the location of a tunnel into the base, you entered it and found yourself trapped in the base. The UAC cannot risk sending someone else to get you so the only way out is to clean out the base and get to the teleportal. Already you have been told of some terrifying monsters deep inside the complex, but you just shrug, you've seen worse...
