Title : Dark Fate 2
Date Finished : 24 Feb 2008
Author : Karthik Abhiram
Email Address : karthik82@gmail.com
Misc. Author Info : 25 year old Doomer from India, for more
info, have a look at my site
http://karthik82.com. There's lots of stuff
over there, both Doom and non-Doom related.
Description : A very short, linear hellish map. It was made
about a year ago as a very short speedmap, and
I hadn't bothered to finish it. Over a couple
of weekends I completed it and made it look
nice. Couldn't think of a better title, so
I simply called it "Dark Fate 2".
Story : Do you really need one for a map this small?
After fighting off the monsters in "Dark Fate"
you entered the exit teleporter and ended up
here. Damn, another hellish area! Will this
never end?

"DVD" Extras! : - I recorded a "Commentary Video" for this level
which has me playing the map on my laptop and
talking about it. It's more for non-Doomers
(this is a very simple map, you don't need a
walkthrough), but you might be interested in
watching too. It's a ten-minute video, and
you can view it here:
