About This File

Adventures in the caves of a volcano. This is a large level (actually 1/4 of what was planned, but betabsp started choking and we had to cut it short). This was our first wad, so we were really trying to find out what the DOOM engine was capable of doing.

pretty bad design but okay gameplay.

I've played worse: but this had enough progression to not be entirely boring. Although the doors, enemy groups and mostly everything are repetitive, a lot of spots are at least considered and thought out.

This is from September 1997, although it feels older. It's a large level, with just over 200 monsters, but it's angular, undetailed, blandly textured and crude. The secrets are of the "press every bit of wall" variety, although they aren't flagged as secrets. It's easy to get stuck quite near the beginning if you don't pause to get the blue key. The ending seems very abrupt; the exit pops up after you flick a random switch.

      These levels are short, sweet, and pack a lot of punch. Complete with a humorous end-text-screen containing a healthy dose of silly shock-humor, this is a masterful triumph of Heretic map-making, and most certainly a must-play wad.

      A really frantic and fun DM map with pretty neat stuff like invisible pillar in the middle of the arena, doesn't have anything to do with the title but the level can become a BFG spamming fest soon, especially with bots. Less fun in SP but the arch-ville+bunch of nazi combo is a nice feat.

      Only six enemies (played on UV) and no working exit. Other than that, it is a pretty detailed map for 1995. I enjoyed the general design and the poisonous vats of acid. Very cool, but not practical for good gameplay.   EDIT: Just discovered this is a ideally a DM wad… haha, for that purpose, it seems good. My original rating was 2/5, will change it now.

      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.
