About This File

This is a revision of my first level. For the most part, the only "theme" I had in mind was to make the level as aesthetically pleasing and consistent as possible. In other words, I wanted it to look neat. There are lots of little nooks and crannies scattered about, and (I hope) a few surprises.

Please let me know what you think by E-Mail at any of the above addresses.

Enjoy. (And if you liked DANTE, check out the next one in the series, CROSSING ACHERON.)

This is dated July 1994, an epic slightly hellish techbase that the author later revised for Doom II, as id=5294. By modern standards it's a bit spartan, you get a surplus of ammo, and there's one major bug (ironically, an "illusio-pit"), but the gameplay is sound. Would have been top of the class in mid-1994, and illustrates why the author went on to better things where countless others vanished; most levels from that period had one setpiece, this has several.

Ahhhh, this is a good example of a doom wad of classic standards. Although not much by todays standards, it is still a fun wad to play and the perfect source to get examples for your own wad. 5 stars.

I didn't like the bug where I fall through the floor so 0 stars for that alone this might have been great for the time but it doesn't measure up today

Here it is, the famous Dr. Sleep's very first publicly released work. It seems a little rough areound the edges, but there's enough action and loads of fun. It's also visually appealing in a way that was rarely seen in 1994. Considering its age, this is a pretty damn good map. --4/5

John "Dr. Sleep" Anderson, known for his maps in Ultimate Doom and the Master Levels, offers here a revision of his earliest work. For the time in which it was released, this map is fairly impressive and fun to play. The map isn't that difficult, but it's still entertaining, and there are plenty of secrets. It may not be ultra-detailed by today's standards, but it still manages to look nice with its decent texture usage, though the map doesn't really stick to any one theme. A good map. 4/5-Reckoner

      One of the classic megawads, and the successor to TNT Evilution. I've played this several times over the years, and its grown on me more with each play as my tastes mature.   Still has a bunch of maps that got me killed in 2024, after ive finished stuff like HR and AV, and plenty of maps are memorable. Only real downsides is some of the levels have little content, showing its age.

      One of the earliest Doom user maps and It shows. Despite the raw and empty design, the author take a good use of 3D space creating a small fortress surrounded by mountains, the level Is fun to play and not hard. A fancy escapade and a piece of modding history.

      Third and final released map of a WIP episode by David Rager, it's more long, complex and hard than the previous entries in the series. A well made map with pretty challenging parts with a mix of monster usage, envoirnmental hazards and some puzzle gameplay. Fun but pretty harsh.

      Two more misplaced DM maps without a exit like QUDOOM (that at least had a exit room, while not functional) that caught me by their file name and leave me for the bad experience in SP. Chicken is just a long bridge between a thundering abyss where cyberdemons wants to destroy you, meh. Gangstar is a more fun map sets in a big, abstract warehouse where a cyberdemon roam free trying to kill you, shotgunners and lost souls are here in this Hell corner adding more pain to the thing, enforced by semi-hidden mazes, my favorite.

      This is like the physical version of the "we have X at home" meme in DM map format for Quake E1M1. Very poorly made, broken exit and missing textures here and there but at least the level KINDA resembles the original source somehow.
