Description:	My first Wad. Based on the computer science building at Curtin University of Technology. Certain alterations have taken place as the rooms on the 3rd floor are normally quite boring.
Credits:	id Software (of course) Peter "Dr Impossible" Bazen for testing the Ultra Violence setting and proving that a cyberdemon _can_ be killed using only a pistol! Andrew and Daniel Hutchison for testing and advice. Authors of Obituary for the idea of a guard rail. All the lecturers at Comp Sci and Maths & Stats who don't yet know that I've done this (lucky that I do engineering :-)
Base:	New level from scratch
Build time:
Editor(s) used:	DCK 2.2, DETH 5.23, WARM 1.4, NWT 1.3, Wintex 3.4 Deluxe Paint II, Aldus Photostyler 2.0 SE
Bugs:	There is a texture error in one of the first rooms in the "door". I have no idea why its there. The game is very demanding on the processor so 386's could have problems.

Reviews:

Memfis	An elaborate multi store house. Look quite badass from the outside but the insides get boring after a while since it's mostly just flat rooms. Kinda hardcore gameplay somewhat redeems it but then there is the incredibly confusing exit room...	x
Zahid	This is a quality map among other building base maps as progression here is exciting.....last areas are beautiful....exit switch is there but hard to figure out the exact sequence of opening it...i just keep on pressing random switches in toxic pillars until it shows up..worth a go...	x
Anonymous	It's one of those "I made a map of my school!" levels - not really worth checking out, even though there's worse out there. No exit switch that I could find (quickly).	x

*** Note on Difficulty settings ***

Before you go jumping into this level, finding out just how hard Ultra
Violence is on this level and flaming me into the next century read on...

This level was designed to be hard and challenge all those who think they
are DoomGods. If you are used to Ultra Violence, use Hurt Me Plenty first. 
I'm too young to die is fairly easy IMHO. U.V. has about twice the bad guys 
as H.M.P.

All the good weapons are hidden so keep looking, and 2 rooms in particular are
an utter pain in the a*#@ to find.

There should not be a need to cheat if you can strafe well.

* Storyline *

Vax7 (the student vax) was given an instruction by a frustrated user to
"goto Hell;" and in its typical style took everybody else with it. You, being
the only student left and with an earnest desire to shoot the thing have to 
fight your way through zombified students and lecturers to reset the computer.

It may not be the greatest storyline but it gives me an excuse to shoot the
damn Vax :-)
