Nice town map.	x
nice, but not very many monsters... that's shit!! 3/5	x
This is dated May 1995. It's a large and detailed town level - even by modern standards, the amount of work is impressive. It's marred by inexplicably painful roads, and empty windowframes that look as if you can walk through them, but you can't; and there are doors that look as if you can't walk through them, but you can. And the gameplay is rubbish. Only 120 monsters, and they tend to be hitscan. Very little health. Very very very wandery.	x
Blegh. This was crap. It makes no sense that the roads damage you. The texturing was crap and it's annoying to tell which windows you can walk through and which ones you can't. 1/5	x
This might have been one of the worst maps I have played - I think I get what you are trying to accomplish, but it is really confusing.	x
One of the most creative city maps.	x

DOOMSTONE 
                                by Bob Reganess

GO AHEAD!! Type in all the codes ya know,I don't care. 
Ya can get out your editor and look where everything is too, it wouln,t make 
that much difference. Ya just will not be able to memorize it all and thats
that!

Are you tired of killin an squishin and shumuckin everything then try 
this game in the capture mode. There are monster traps ( 5 or 6 of em) that
will teleport them to jail. But ya gota get em to cross that line.

Want Hints? Course ya do! There in the game. Not all of em but 
getting all the keys and some new suprises can be found out by visiting the
blabbermouth. But a... watch where ya step.

There are some places where ya should stay out da road just like ya 
mommy told ya once. And of course there are places ya shouldn't go at all
But I aint gonna tell ya where day are cause you gonin there anyway!!

Yes yes YES. It may be a little slow but then it's BIG. Besides I
have only been makeing these games for 2 or 3 months which says alot for
the programs I'm using........
        
        DEEP..................WOW this is easy to use!
        DEUTEX................Couldn't add anything without it.
        WINDOO................Windows shell for DEUTEX
        ORCHESTRATOR PLUS.....How I made the music
        COOLEDIT..............Used it for all the new sounds.
        NEOPAINT..............Great paint program!!!

All this stuff is either shareware or freeware and I recomend it 
        highly. I registered it all cause ya know.... I wanted all the
        features and stuff.

Anyway the trick is to get to know DOOMSTONE real well before
chalenging some dude to a deathmatch. I woulda spent more time on it but
I got this other idea for a game in doom with ALL new sprites. I would 
love your feedback though so E-mail me at:

The new music, art, and sounds were created by myself and if you use them
I would only ask that you make mention of that fact. Other wise if your
not makeing money with it....... just help yourself to it.
