May Not Run With...     : ?

Extensive testing done with vanilla Doom2, JDoom, Zdoom, PRBoom and Legacy.

Ninth map in the Blind Alley series for Doom2.  They will all be released as singles and then combined once the series is finished.

My original design as Doom2 map 29, "The Living End", now running on level 1.

I am pretty sure this place only exists in my mind.  Artistic license used freely.

A nice medium sized map with real decent attention to detail.

You will never have for hunt for ammo in here.  That is the least of your problems.  
There is enough health and ammo that you can push as hard as you want for time, or 
just lay back and snipe at the monsters.  Nice to have the option isn't it?

I would love to see any demos done for the level.  Feedback greatly appreciated.

I have been mapping for about six years.  This is the ninth of my levels that I feel is OK 
for release.  It is a very fun map.  
Detail is nice, but the concentration here is on gameplay.
 Some good old fashioned run and gun in here.  
Stay awake however, or you could get very dead.

I consider this map only somewhat hard in UV.  
UV in this map is however aimed at the experienced player. 
Skill levels could come in handy until you learn the map.

Special thanks to my friend Rich Sham for providing a great 
Legacy version 1.40 max demo of this map, included in the zip file.
To play his demo use the following:
c:\doom2\legacy.exe doom2.wad -file BndAlyT.wad -playdemo rBAT1534
or
c:\doom2\legacy.exe doom2.wad -file BndAlyt.wad -timedemo rBAT1534 
This assumes your doom2 folder is on your c: drive, 
and that you have the excellent, free, Legacy port.  
Or you can run it from the Legacy Launcher.

Get Legacy at:
http://legacy.newdoom.com/

Additional thanks to the authors of the maps that inspired me for this map: 
Requiem, Mordeth, Brotherhood of Ruin, and others.

I recommend you watch the demo of the level before you play it.  
Unless you just love to die in the traps I have set for you.

There are, or soon will be, other excellent demos of this map at the following site:
Doomworld Speed Demo Archives.

What are you waiting for?  Get busy! The carnage is waiting.
