Size:	24.21 KB
Date:	05/31/05
Author:	Bruce H. Graw
Description:	An arena-style, wide-open level. A real challenge alone, easier in cooperative mode, and an excellent deathmatch level.
Credits:	The wonderful DEUers who made DEU so I could create this level. Those who don't, DEU!
Base:	New from scratch
Build time:
Editor(s) used:	DEU 5.21 GCC
Bugs:	None...There used to be a Hall of Mirrors in the center area, but setting DEU's splitfactor to 16 fixed this. Users modifying this level should use "-sf 16" on the command line before using the Node Builder.

Anonymous	Yep, it's a simple big room with imps and barons and stuff and some more rooms. But it was ok. Easy to find your way, easy to play, ok design. 2.5/5 - Optimus	x
Anonymous	This is from September 1994. As a single-player level it's poor; basically a donut-shaped arena with a satellite ring around the outside. Might be good in Deathmatch, but then again it's just a ring-shaped arena with some trees and 90 mostly weak monsters. You can win the level by running around in circles. If you know what to do you can finish it in no time (I did 27 seconds).	x

* Additional Comments / Hints *

With monsters: KEEP MOVING. Use the invulnerability spheres WISELY.
Don't enter the outer square until after you've dealt with everything
in the inner ones, and save the center room for last. Watch your ammo!

As Deathmatch: It's an arena with no cubbyholes or dead-ends, and all
the weapons are present except the BFG-9000. You also get to start with
a good weapon, ammo, and armor and can jump in when ready!

Multiplayer: In multiplayer mode (cooperative or deathmatch) at least
two people will have to work together to exit the level. (This means,
in a deathmatch, that no one person can spoil everyone else's fun by
throwing the exit switch - at least not without help.)
