Title: John's Second Level Game: Doom 2
Filename: JOHN2.ZIP Size: 45k
Author: John D. Howa e-mail: [email protected]
Maps: MAP02 Type: normal
Sounds: no
Graphics: no
Music: no
[ Level construction ] ----------------------------------------------
Quite interesting, but all three keys are needed at the end (which
is also the main part/trick of this level). Many hallways; you have
to pass a few twice, due to the unexpected destination of some
teleporters. The end 'trick' is the only puzzle in this level. Not
very difficult and kinda boring after playing 50 or more PWADs.
No special effects (okay, one glass effect), average light usage
and some nice traps.
[ Texture design ] --------------------------------------------------
More than a few misaligned textures, especially upper textures at
doors, lower at stairs and a few 'misplaced' ceiling textures.
[ Bugs ] ------------------------------------------------------------
No Tuttie-Frutti, Medusa or HOM effects.
[ Enemies ] ---------------------------------------------------------
Very easy at all. A lot of Shotgun Guys and Imps, some Heavy
Weapon Dudes and Cacos etc.
[ Things ] ----------------------------------------------------------
Plentyful ammo and health. Only a few 'other' things.
[ Scoring ] ---------------------------------------------------------
55%
One of these levels I don't know what to say about... It's not
that bad, but quite boring. Worth downloading only, if you really
NEED a new level.
