Description:	Before the first DOOM missions, you were one of the ones "voluntarily" sent through the portal that caused so many problems in the first place. You were immediately captured and tortured repeatedly. (long expanse of time skipped) After the end of DOOM 2, with many of the structures destroyed, you were transferred to some underground caverns. During the confusion, you managed to slip a pistol in your pocket. Now, all you have to do is escape, and hopefully find your way back home. (Note: This is a different person than the marine in DOOM, but my drawing skills are inadequate to change the look of him. If anyone can send me new graphics that I like I'll put them in.) This is a completely new DOOM 2 level, it was not a DOOM 1 level that was converted. See the extra info on the bottom for more ramblings.
Credits:	Whoever it was that put THEWALL.CMF on the JEM CD-ROM. And the authors of all the various programs I used.

* Extra Info *

This is meant to be the first in a series.  Any comments on how future
levels of this series should be made are appreciated.

Technical stuff:
  The music is from THEWALL.CMF (converted to MID and then MUS format).
  The MOSSWALL and BROWNCOL graphics were raytraced using POVRAY.
  The SMOKYWAL graphic is a section from a picture of a sunset, flipped over
  vertically and horizontally.

How do I get the supercharge?
  You have to use the archville's "jump".  Obviously, you need the invulnerable
  to do this.
How do I get the chainsaw?
  First you have to visit the room in the top right of the map with the blue
  key door and get the two skull keys there.  Then go to the archville room,
  open the two doors, and you will find the chainsaw.
Is there a computer map anywhere?
  Yes, in the top right blue key room.  Look for an unusually straight wall.
