About This File

This is an interesting "experimental" level I cooked up to try out a few new ideas I felt needed a little exploration, the most significant of which invloves a very clever use of teleporters to keep deathmatch opponents in constant contact with one another. The big room with the trees and the blackwall texture contains a ring of teleporters blocked from direct access by these little partitions. When a player in another section of the level walks over a lindef, one of these partitions falls and allows the oponnent access to the teleporter, which, in turn, teleports them to the other player's location. I've tried it out a little in deathmatch play and it has proved very exciting. Another theme I tried to explore in this one was the use of linedef triggered hiding places where players can wait in ambush. If you have any constructive criticism concerning this wad, e-mail.

      A fun idea, a fun execution, and even more fun gameplay. Wonderful. A must play.

      Great WAD, solidly nails that fantasy castle crawling feeling, not too rough on the player nor overly stingy/generous on supplies, encourages good use of items, plenty of navigation and switch puzzles as is apt for Heretic, but also lets loose with a little slaughter.   Some areas could use slightly brighter lighting, and sometimes the next switch or door isn't signalled too well, but overall a fun and feisty fantasy fight fest.

      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.
