Judging by the readme, the author has put a lot of thought and effort into this level. And it was wasted. For 1996 this is behind the curve. Sins are numerous and include wonky textures, dull design, and a wandery layout. The first key is hidden in an non-obvious secret room; there are several long, undetailed corridors that take ages to navigate; there's a small dark maze. Monsters come at you in clumps, but you've got a huge amount of rockets and ammo.

Description
-----------
The government has for quite a long time, been engaged in genetic weapons
research.  The goal is to create powerful mutations that would be released into
a country to destabilize it, by both wanton destruction and the fear produced.
A secret laboratory in the Rockies, only known by a few in the government, and
simply called Site 459, has been taken over by a terrorist organization.  They
want one billion US dollars or they will release all the mutated animals on an
unsuspecting populace.  They have also told officials, that if an army is deployed
against them, they will release all the mutations.  As proof of their intentions
they video tape the mass murder of all the labs personnel.  The President decides 
to send in one man:  Colonel Weland Meyers, simply known as the Colonel.  His 
mission is simple.  Parachute into the site, search and destroy and make it out 
alive if he can.
