Title : Haunted Space Ship

Misc. Author Info :
Description : You have just found a derelict space ship orbiting
a planet. The crew is missing or has been
transformed; there are just zombies roaming all
parts of the ship--the bridge, the holosuite, the
transporter room, the engine rooms, and the empty
shuttle bay. There are also various floating
creatures haunting the ship and outside in space.
A small shuttlecraft, also abandoned, is near the
ship. On the planet, you find only unearthly
creatures stalking through abandoned ruins. Thus
you get to battle in the vast reaches of outer space
and the sometimes cramped areas the ship. There are
plenty of windows to shoot in and out of (you can
shoot through any of the windows but you can't shoot
through the transparent doors unless they are open.
An adequate supply of ammunition is scattered about
the ship and all of the weapons are available,
though you are going to have to *want* the rocket
launcher or the BFG9000.
Additional Credits to : the unknown (to me) creator of SPACE.WAD for the
glass window texture;
Alberto Barsella (alberto@astrpi.difi.unipi.it) for
the transparent door idea;
my coworkers for the grueling playtesting and
helpful suggestions
