Maps: MAP01 Type: normal level
Sounds: no
Graphics: no
Music: no
[ Level construction ] ----------------------------------------------
Kinda one-way-level, though it has a few rooms neighboring to the
main way. This level really needs no keys, but two were used. (You
know, run - get blue key - run - open blue door, kinda stupid) Some
nice tricks, like platforms with things on it etc. but nothing
amazing. Some light effects, like cones of light...
[ Texture design ] --------------------------------------------------
Kinda 'brutal' texture placement, but most of them are aligned.
Some strange texture combinations, could be better.
[ Bugs ] ------------------------------------------------------------
No Tuttie-Frutti, Medusa or HOM effects.
[ Enemies ] ---------------------------------------------------------
Played in UV only. Too easy. Not very challenging at all - Guys,
Imps, Pigs. Boring.
[ Things ] ----------------------------------------------------------
Enough ammo and health, too easy. Nice placed 'other' things.
[ Scoring ] ---------------------------------------------------------
55%
Worth downloading. A bit boring. I hope the other WADs of this
series will be BIGGER and better.
