Description             : PLAY THESE MAPS ON NIGHTMARE DIFFICULTY AND IN A UMAPINFO COMPATIBLE PORT! Nah for real just do it.

"Three times Randolph Carter dreamed of the marvellous city, and three times he was snatched away while still he paused on the high terrace above it." (H.P. Lovecraft; the opening lines of The Dream Quest of Unknown Kadath)

This month the Krew drag you into the morbid dreams of H.P. Lovecraft's Great Old Ones where you'll get wrecked by really fast projectiles and respawning monsters; Krewthulhu doesn't fuck around. dmdr was the boss this month but see dbp25-credits.txt and (especially) the map listing below for a list of more important people.
A special welcome to our DBP first timers, morpheuskitami and temp!

Base                    : New from scratch
Build Time              : 1 month 
Editor(s) used          : GZDoom Builder derivatives, Eureka, WhackED 4, Slade 3, GIMP
Known Bugs              : IDKFA text doesn't display properly in PrBoom-Plus, projectiles pass through some walls in MAP10, Watcher has no raise states (doesn't really affect gameplay + lots of trouble to free states so didn't fix)
May Not Run With        : Any port that isn't *MAPINFO compatible. At the time of writing that means you need PRBoom-Plus 2.5.1.7um, Doom Retro 3.6 (not tested -- and be warned, it has 'limited' UMAPINFO support, according to the 3.6 changelog) or ZDoom/GZDoom/LZDoom/Zandronum -- set your compatibility options to Doom (Strict) or suffer the wrath of TOMATULU! Contra earlier revisions, EMAPINFO is no longer supported due to inconsistent behaviour that I frankly don't care enough to debug. Eternity devs, implement UMAPINFO.
Tested With             : PRBoom-Plus 2.5.1.7um -complevel 2, GZDoom 4.4.2 (Doom (Strict) compat), Zandronum 3.something.or.other (coop testing)
Tested by				: Alper002, Big Ol' Billy, dmdr, GarrettChan, glenzinho, joe-ilya, kakhome1, Nine Inch Heels, Phobus, skepticist, SuperCupcakeTactics, temp, vigilantdoomer
