Anonymous	Map01 and Map02 are so simple they hurt. Map03 proves to be an interesting challenge, aside from the cyber, this one's pretty easy. Map04 is the best from them all. Map05 has a good design, but the IoS looks kinda messy. The rest of the maps suck too, and the Doom1 doesn't have an exit button or something	x
Anonymous	Since the theme was last level of doom I guess these could be a little better that crap. 4/3/07	x

* The Story *
===========================================================================

It is 10:00 PM, October 2, 1994.  As Ron Jomero, senior member of id
Software, you are about to burn the gold master of Doom 2 and send it off
to GT Interactive for duplication and distribution.  It's late and everyone
is ready to head home and finally get some well-deserved sleep.  Just as
you are about to hit "Copy," lead programmer Con Jarmack stands bolt
upright from his office chair.

"Wait a minute," he says, his eyes as big as saucers.  "We totally forgot
about Map30!  The last level!"

A shocked hush comes over the room as everyone realizes that they assumed
someone else had made the final map for Doom 2.  All eyes drift your way.
As you push your flowing mahogany locks out of your face, you painfully
remember your boasts earlier in the day of being id Software's fastest
mapper by light-years.

The gold master needs to be at Fed Ex by 11:59 PM in order to be shipped
overnight to GT Interactive.  If they don't get it by tomorrow morning, it
can't be on shelves on time and id Software loses eight billion dollars.
Allowing 20 minutes to copy the files and burn rubber down to FedEx in your
Ferrari, you have 100 minutes to design the perfect final level for Doom 2.
 GET MOVING, RON!
