Misc. Author Info : I'm 20 years old, and I'm from India. I
hardly play Doom any more, you can have a
look at the other stuff I do on my blog.
Description : This map is heavily inspired by Episode 4 of
The Ultimate Doom, especially E4M1 and E4M6.
It was originally made for a project called
The Ninth Gate that never saw the light of day.
Most of it was made (on and off) during
2001-03 using DoomCAD (the exit area was built
using Doom Builder though). I didn't know you
could select multiple linedefs in DoomCAD back
then, so I was actually insane enough to
manually select each and every linedef, apply
the texture and align it. If only I had that
kind of patience/time now :)
The map is very straightforward (too
straightforward maybe?), so you shouldn't
have any problems finding your way. The level
music is from Duke Nukem 3D, the other
tracks (which are awesome IMO) were composed
by Damian Lee.
Note: The lava in the map doesn't hurt,
it's used for artistic purposes only.
Advanced engine needed : Requires any limit-removing source port.
Other WADs by me : (1) The Anomaly: Part II
(2) Short 'n Quick
(3) Short 'n Quick 2
(4) Reanimated
Special Thanks to : Pablo Dictter and Opulent for beta-testing and
very useful feedback.
Karthik Abhiram for testing the level at
the lower skills and for general suggestions.
Damian Lee for the awesome music.
You guys for playing!
