[ Level construction ] ----------------------------------------------
Medium sized level. Well planed, sometimes the rooms are a bit too
big. Well placed keys. Logical with a few traps and some hard to
manage places. A few light failures. The whole level could be much
more fine, looks a bit rough...
One thing I didn't like: green waste is harmless, water hurts! :(
[ Texture design ] --------------------------------------------------
Only a few misaligned textures, some light walls have the wrong
size. Some small, tricky walls are grey - standard wall of many
level-editors - not very nice. Door sizes and teleporters are okay,
lifts could be done better. Ah, door's floors and ceilings are often
also not the best choice I think...
[ Bugs ] ------------------------------------------------------------
No Tutti-Frutti, Medusa or HOM effect.
[ Enemies ] ---------------------------------------------------------
Enemies are well placed. A few traps, 'sudden attack' monsters and
some very challenging on platforms above you. Very hard to kill...
Overall a good level for the plasma gun - just fire into groups of
monsters.
[ Things ] ----------------------------------------------------------
Really enough ammo and too much health I think. It isn't that hard
at all. Also good placed ungetable things, as mentioned above it
looks a bit rough...
[ Scoring ] ---------------------------------------------------------
75%
Worth downloading. The author should do some 'fine tuning'.
