Description : After a weekend of R&R, you return to your base
to find your unit has not returned from routine
maneuvers on Mars. Upon checking in with your CO,
you find him a changed person. He only mumbles,
"Despair, Despair, Why did it have to be
Despair." Your comrades had been sent to pay a
routine visit to OCP's genetics and physics lab
knicknamed "Despair" because of its remote
location Grabbing your sidearm, you head for the
hanger to begin your search for the fate of your
comrades.
This is my first complete level, so please bear
this in mind. Please E-Mail me with your comments
on Compuserve.

and of course, those great people at id, without
which we would not have the pleasure to play
DOOM.
I would like to thank those great people on CIS
for their help and inspirations.
Instructions : Put DESPAIR.WAD and DESPAIR.BAT in your DOOM
directory, then run the batch file. This takes
you right into it, skiping the intro stuff,
chooses "Hey, Not Too Rough" skill, and jumps
right into the level. Modify the batch file with
-skill # as you please. Otherwise, choose New
Game, Shores of Hell, and the skill level you
prefer and play thru as normal.
Disclaimer : I assume no responsibility for anything of any
sort in any way, shape, or form, now, then,
henceforeward for any problems or even minor
inconveniences this PWAD causes you or anyone
else. This PWAD has been tested ad infinitum, so
it should not mess with your computer or anything
else remotely associated with it. If you have
problems with this PWAD, please don't use it.

Authors MAY NOT use this level as a base to build additional levels.
Primarily because of the size of this level, it is at the limits of the
