About This File

This is a one level add-on for Doom2 using the sourceport ZDoom. The atmosphere is intended to be foreboding and very akin to PSX Doom and Final Doom, so don't be surprised to see a lot of darkness in this level. Some ZDoom features included is some sprite things, transparencies, fog and colored lighting. Hopefully you'll feel the tension and atmosphere immerse you. At first this level was meant to be a map04 tribute, and you'll probably see that. But at a certain point it deviates from that into a diffrent style, perhaps more reminiscent of Doom64. The level itself is a security outpost which demons have overrun and later you notice more and more evidence of this...

The level design and atmosphere are solid in general but the gameplay is boring because of the very low difficulty. There aren't any secrets but all the things one would make secrets (computer area map, BFG, plasma rifle, etc.) are out in the open, making the level a breeze. And the design of the final arena is really boring, just a million monsters in a square room. On the atmosphere side, like I said it's mostly good-looking but there are a few ugly "babbys first zdoomisms" (particle fountains, poorly-implemented fog). Overall not bad but not incredible.

Stealth monsters - a terrible stupid idea!

This wad was pretty good, but the ending area is kinda a disappointment. You could just BFG your way through the upper platform and not even have to bother with about 100 other enemies because you could exit right away. Something should have been done to make it wait until most of the monsters are dead. I didn't mind the stealth monsters, but they were a bit ecessive and awkwardly placed. All in all it is an above average map and I like it. **** -Cyber-Menace

Great map, i love it! I always liked the final doom game, and this map feels deserving of being in that game!

This is from February 2004. It starts off as a clone of Map04, and then turns into a detailed but fairly generic post-Vrack techbase. Atmospheric, with almost 300 baddies, and fun to play, but the challenge is mild because you have lots of ammo and health. The stealth monsters were silly - it's dark already, no need to make the monsters invisible too. I got stuck easily behind the yellow key (I could jump out, but jumping doesn't seem to be a gameplay feature).

One of the most atmospheric wads I've played in a while, showing how zdoom coloured lighting should be used. Though I thought the area behind the blue door was a bit too dark. And stealth monsters by definition suck. Still I think i would give this top marks for the great atmosphere 5/5

A very Doom64-ish affair, lots of colored lighting, and the complete console sounds. The rest of the level is pretty dark, with lots of nasty traps. I'd play it once, but not something I'll keep around. 3/5

Atmospheric, I like usage of dark (and i mean _dark_) areas and colored lightning. Fscking scary. And music is cool too. Ending is in fact bit weak, but overall it kicks ass. 5/5-- Brun Ohn

Stealth monsters blow, and the darkness detracts from the obvious detail put into the design. Why get so intricate if no one can see it. The amount of ammo you get ratchets down the difficulty, but it's creepy and fun and definitely worth a play.>Behemoth

Excellent! Great atmosphere, nice gameplay and a carefully detailed ambience. However, I couldn't see the ending, cause ZDoom (2.0.97) crashed and I couldn't reload the savegame :-( 5/5

Nice job. The only problem I had was that I exited by mistake without killing everything.

A very well put together and atmospheric map, but it had some issues with the gameplay. The sounds really distract the player and get annoying after a while. You can't tell one monster from another... did you really have to reaplace EVERY sound in the game?! O_o Second off, the use of stealth monsters was a bit frustrating. I kept running out of ammo because I kept firing to make sure there wasn't any demons out there. All in all, it was a good level and great effort. **** -EarthQuake

Hey I like it! The sounds make it feel like a bryant robinson wad. If you make a 7 level wad pack I will love you forever! -Epyo (*****)

      Lots of traps and monster closets. Some switches are activated by shooting but there's nothing to really tell you about this because they look the same as other switches.   Texturing is good and enemy placement proved rather difficult at times. There aren't may health pickups on UV so it was a fight to get through.

      It's pretty good for 1994. If you don't mind having no health items at all (except in a few maps) and the outrageous amounts of cyberdemons per map, you should give it a try. It's pretty challenging and I like it. E2M3 is a bit 'eh...' though.

      What the actual f*ck is this map. I love having 4 rockets, a shit ton of bullets and like 10 shotgun shells to take out a revenant, and whatever was in that cage. Doesn't look too bad, maybe this negativity is cus im no expert, also rather unskilled at the game?

      thank god Underhalls was the map that followed this mod as that level was able to remind me what actually competent level design looks like.

      Not that bad, even kind of interesting find the secrets in the map! But yeah, that switches jungle is a awful choice really.
