Anonymous	There are some good things (it's fun) and some bad things (teleporter mazes are pure evil) so I shall give this a three. Worth playing.	x
Anonymous	Has not aged all that well although this can still put many other badly made maps to shame, seems to crash on chocolate doom 1.5.0 when you run to the opened up centre area of the map so had to play it in ZDoom. Overall this is not so bad, but I found that the intersections with the trees and barrels were both annoying and distracting from the overall map. Could have been better, could have been worse still interesting to play anyhow considering the age but it is slightly below average these days 2/5	x
Anonymous	Wow. History. Though it resembled those ugly big confusing WADs of the era I hate, it's not bad for the time. 3.5/5 - Optimus	x
Anonymous	Not a bad-looking level. All those heaps of cells should have been set multiplayer-only, they make the level too easy. The eight secret areas are all exactly the same. There's one-way stairs close to the start. The teleporter cave doesn't take long to figure out, the numerous tall lifts are more likely to annoy an impatient player. - N_A	x
Anonymous	Erm. Has a certain historical value as the second of these WADs proper (not counting id=11, which is a two-room demo written by hand). Given its age the final section, in which the middle of the level opens up, is quite nice to look at, but the level design is full of grids, there's an aggravating teleporter maze and it would be horrible in deathmatch (what with the rivers and trees).	x

Well, after many hours of learning how to run the deu5.0 editor, this
is the level that I came up with.  This is the first level of the first 
mission.  To load up the level just type 'doom -file upliftng.wad' and
choose 'Knee deep in the dead'(and the appropriate skill level). There 
are about 40+ hours into making this level so if someone does change this
level any, I would at least like some credit shown.

This level was made using the patched 1.2 version of the registered game
and was also run through the bsp node builder, ver. 1.0.

The level is geared for more for a multiplayer mode that just one player.
However, this level is playable for just one player.

Deathmatch mode is supported.
Skill levels do change.

Tips:
   Watch out for the green river....20% health loss.
   It may bog down on slower computers when the ceilings are raised to
allow the ability to exit the level.  Be patient.
   Many of the same ideas are used, so don't be suprised.

I did this on a 386dx-40(scary, isn't it!) and this is the second level
that I have created.  The first level I made is not quite done yet but it
was also more of a deathmatch level.  I may get it on internet someday.

Enjoy,
