Two tentative names for this map are "Waste Away" and "Dancing into the Sun." Anyway, some shots at 1% completion:

There will be more detail, etc. I am pretty much done experimenting with HR style gameplay (all my attempts were dismal failures), so its back to tighter combat.

I have done a bit more work, now the map is between 5-10% finished.

Wow, I just realized how early those shots were taken during production. Will post some new screens tomorrow (though I don't wnat to give the whole map away).

I can assure you that this map isn't just a bunch of halls, I just don't want to give too much away. Oh, and the map now has a name, "Charon's Gift."

Those are some nice screens, Dr. Zin. :)

Though, IMO, I don't quite like the instant change from brown bricks to grey bricks in the second shot. I think it would look a bit better if there was some kind of metal texture (or whatever else you see fit.) just under the light to show a transition between the brown and grey bricks. Just my opinion.

Keep up the good work :).

That is just a trick of persepective. There actually is a metal border there, you just can't see it from that angle.

Ah, I see, that looks good. I assume the other side is like that as well? I can't exactly tell if the other side is like the first side or not.

The other side is different because the two linedefs are coming together at an angle that makes a texture change look natural.

So will the great King Diamond be mentioned in this level somewhere?

Cool name, though from it I expected some blue palette for this level, under a voidish night sky. Looks like a Hell/medieval level to me, though its name also reminds me of Descent's last missions... I hope the gameplay is difficult in accordance with its place in the megawad. I really want so.

The title is more along the lines of the Greek Charon, the deity who rowed the dead across the Styx into the underworld - Not the frozen moon of Pluto (though that could be a cool map too). And I am trying to make this map fairly difficult, though if it will meet up to the expectations of Belial and the like I don't know.
