Crimson Wood

"Crimson Wood" is a prboom+ compatible map that was designed in about 2 months (maybe a bit more) and it is a rather medium/large map. It is a map I previously
made for the Doomworld megaproject 2016 but, considering I submitted it rather late, I never got a chance to tweak it further on (per the DWMP16's set of rules). 
Thus, after having it sit on my hardrive for god knows how long, I finally decided to release it separately. This version is the definitive version of what I wanted the map 
to be. It has difficulty settings, coop starts and monsters (nothing huge tbh, and only really tested once), a few new additions and a few sprite swaps. 
 
Veteran players will have no problems beating this, ocasional players might find it hard heh.

======================================================================================================================================================

Advanced engine needed  : PRBOOM+ at the least (tested with), I suppose zdoom/gzdoom is also fine
Primary purpose         : Single player

May Not Run With...     : Should run with gameplay mods as nothing new (as in weapons, monsters, etc...) were added although, some oddities were found while playing in brutal 
doom (monsters teleporting in when they shouldn't for example). Should beperfectly fine with smoothdoom I suppose (you will not have the sprite edits though)

======================================================================================================================================================

* Aditional notes *

This map was tested primarilly with prboom+ during the making. Should run fine with qzdoom, gzdoom, etc...

Also, jumping and crouching is disabled by default and it should stay that way. The map was not designed for ports that allow these so if you encounter bugs that are the result
of you jumping and crouching around, I will not be responsable. You are warned ;)
