Description:	8 levels of DM fun. Godless 3 is a step back from the insanity of Godless 2. Most of the levels are somewhat larger and easier to get around in. They're still slaughterfests with four players, but with two, you can actually have hunting / stalking matches on most of the maps.
Credits:	Id Software John Carmack deserves special thanks for his commitment to the community and technical idealism most recently demonstrated by the release of the DOOM source code.

From what I've seen in Usenet, there's occasional infighting and cliquishness, but overall, I'm proud of the effort the remaining groups and individuals continue to put into DOOM. And finally, a special thanks to the hackers. Id never intended for users to make their own DOOM levels. I just can't express how grateful I am to those people who hacked out their secrets. You changed the gaming world forever. And thanks again to Id Software. You chose to nurture what most people would have sicked a pack of lawyers on. In your own way, you are heroes.
Base:	New levels from scratch Actually the first map's rocket alcoves were cut and pasted from MAP01. In addition, numerous structural ideas were taken from the DWELLER, DANZIG, and KANDY wad compilations.
Build time:
Editor(s) used:	DCK 2.2 (still the best) DEUTEX (also still the best) WARM, Win95 PaintBrush, and NeoPaint (UR)
Bugs:	E1M1 slime bug has been noted on Map 8 and probably occurs elsewhere as this wad contains a few Pentium Optimized levels (lots of visible sidedefs and linedefs). Any others that slipped through should be reported immediately.

Nice deathmatch maps with monsters, so you can have some fun in singleplayer while looking at the cool architecture.

                          as this wad contains a few Pentium

Chris did lots of dress up on Bloodbath Terraces.  (Blain's new
PC disliked DOOM to the point where he had to reformat a few
times.  He's learning to work around that.)

And one more thing, no one who was in any way involved with
selling me the D!ZONE disk set that claimed to include 75
new levels of which over 20 were from registered DOOM and
most of which stank may do _anything_ with these levels.
I don't even want you shysters PLAYING them!  Got that?
None of you Actura scum either.  Repent while you can.
