Reviews:

Anonymous	Small and simple 3-minutes level. Quite simple and boring layout, primitive texture use, almost no decoration, so overall very little ambiance, and @ UV simple and (worse) unattractive gameplay that made me yawn. Rated as a '95 map: far below average, and as 2014 map: plain awful. BTW @ Never_Again ^: nofi, but is this your own map you're reviewing? 4* is clearly :lol: /nofi	x
Never_Again	An all-around good small map: non-linear, well-interconnected, with interesting architecture, excellent texturing and plenty Tyson action. It's possible to squeeze your way through to the blue key and rush to the RL - then it's rocket-fest time!	x
Anonymous	This is a pretty decent old-fashioned level from the past. Solid design, although everything is well-lit. It's quite small, with 75 monsters, lots of cacodemons, a couple of barons of hell. You have quite a few rockets however, although you don't get them until near the end. Not nearly as hard as the readme suggests, but then again I'm playing with a mouse on a machine that was, in 1995, supercomputer-fast.	x

                          I don't quite remember anything else
                          I did.

Brief Description       : All-round single level for DOOM one.

WAD features            : + A very diffucult level. Compare to
                            WADs like H2H levels.
                          + Other skill levels are much easier
                            for starters.
                          + 100% perfect texture alignment.
                          + Very good texture choices, also.
                          + Two DOOM II graphics processed
                            through NeoPaint and put into this.
                          + Play single player, or your friends
                            in Deathmatch or Cooperative mode.

WAD info in more detail : This level was designed to serve well
                          in all modes of play. Just remember
                          to turn off monsters in Deathmatch.
                          This level is only 117 sectors big,
                          but how long it takes doesn't matter.
                          Surviving in Ultra-Violence is the
                          real goal. If this level doesn't look
                          like it has a lot of monsters, just
                          remember how much ammo you have.
                          By the way, when I said 100% perfect
                          alignment, I meant I did more than
                          unpegging upper and lower textures, I
                          did a hell of a lot of manual texture
                          offsetting. I know there are editors
                          that can do this automatically, but
                          the editors that do that really suck,
                          like DCK.

Won't fully work with   : Nothing.

Won't work at all with  : Your butt, and everything else that
                          is not DOOM one of any registered
                          version.
