Title : HCHURCH.WAD (Church of the Heretic)
Description : Original Deathmatch PWAD for Registered Heretic
Author : Jeff Buckland
Misc. Author info : It sucks in San Antonio. Just had to say that. :)
Email Address : buckster@ephsa.sat.tx.us (That's right. Buckster.)
Additional Credits to : -To Raven Software. They've done something with
that id engine, alright.
-And to my girlfriend, Heidi, a fellow Heretic
player, who let me know that "this level better
be good - or you're in TROUBLE." Yikes. ;>
Story : OK, you want a story. Well, let's see. You get up
bright and early on Sunday morning to go to church.
But wait. Something's wrong. Someone has desecrated
the front of the church and left the altar boys
hanging! You can only wonder if your pastor is
alright. But since this is a Heretic WAD, of course
he isn't! You better go underground to his little
wooden lodge to see what he left before "they" got
him, and fight your way out of what is now the Church
of the Heretic! (ok, cheezy story. sue me.)
Points of Interest : Well, this is a kind of hybrid not-quite-single-
not-quite-deathmatch level. It's not really that
great at either, and I think it's pretty easy to
figure out. Just pay careful attention to the
teleporters. They come in handy for the wussies
who try to run for the exit!
Watch out for an allusion to my favorite band of
all time. Hint: This is NOT halo 10. I repeat.
NOT halo 10 in a digital format. :)
And remember one thing: if you power up a FireMace
with a Tome of Power, the "big balls" CAN teleport.

============================================================================
Base : New level from scratch.
Build Time : About 10 plays of my Pearl Jam _Vitalogy_ CD

Try to control yourself with that powered-up
Hellstaff. Raven, we need a patch!!! I want 128
on-screen sprites! At least! :)
FireMace bug. 'Nuff said.

By CravenCoyote · PostedLots 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.
By costadevale · PostedIt'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.
By entropy122 · PostedWhat 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?
