DMP2018cl2 MAP01 by Benjogami
=============================
Name: Warm Embrace
Compatibility: Vanilla
Tested with: Chocolate Doom 2.3.0
Demo: Recorded in Chocolate Doom, a casual first exit max.
Midi: from Daggerfall

Comments: Started as a 1-hour speedmap, but it took me something like 2 hours to get it playable. I was really enjoying it while testing, so I decided to polish it and make it vanilla-compatible. I got the sprite flickering down to a level I'm comfortable with, but it's often still there late in the map. An invisible cyberdemon spooked me pretty good in my demo. Difficulty settings implemented and tested, coop implemented but untested.

=========================
DMP2018cl2 MAP02 by Roofi
=========================
Author: Roofi
Map name: Messy bedroom
Compatibility: Vanilla
Playtesting: Vanilla , prboom+
Allow jumping and\or crouching: NO
Skill settings: Yes 
Build time: 2 days
Tools used: GZDoom Builder & Slade3
Music track: Nightwish - She's my sin
Bugs: some items are a bit floating but I'm too lazy to correct them.
Comments: I got a lot of inspiration from my bedroom , especially concerning the items placement.

==========================
DMP2018cl2 MAP03 by Phobus
==========================
The plan was to chain four small maps together here and make one generously sized map. However, I finished the first segment and moved onto something else for what looks like six months, so I've decided to cull the plan and just submit the first section, which is a nice easy MAP01 sort of set-up. I've done a no-secrets demo with 100% kills, to fit the rules but keep some of the more exciting bits to be discovered. I'll concede that it's a crap demo which shows I barely use prboom+ at all.
 
Broundry 2
Build Time: 6 hours
Author: James "Phobus" Cresswell

==============================
Name: Azazel Installation
Compatibility: Limit-removing
Music: "Taskforce" from Rise of the Triad
Notes: Title created with exl's random generator. Compatibility with coop/deathmatch has been provided, but not tested extensively; play at your own risk.

=========================
DMP2018cl2 MAP15 by Jthom
=========================
Name: Dark Terminal
Author: Jthom
Format: Doom format (tested in prboom+ cl2 and cl9) 
Build time: 1 week
Comments: Your standard doom 2 techbase, it is pretty big, for a pretty good player I would say about a 10-minute romp through demon infested halls. I was going to release it as a map in my own short episode, but it turned out larger and better than I expected, so I thought it would be a good idea to submit it here!

============================
DMP2018cl2 MAP16 by DMPhobos
============================
Title: Caina
Compatibility: Vanilla
Tested with: Chocolate Doom

==========================
DMP2018cl2 MAP18 by Pegleg
==========================
Title: Sludge Outpost
Compatibility: Vanilla
Author: Pegleg
Music: "The Healer Stalks"

Tools used: Eureka, Slade
Tested in Chocolate Doom 3.0.0 and PrBoom+ 2.5.1.4

Text: This is a fairly short map, set in a small outpost on a planet with brown sludge and a slimy green sky. The outpost was overrun, so you have to find the keys in order to escape. About 40-50% of the map is optional, being non-essential to completing the map, but a bit of exploration will be rewarded.

DMP2018cl9 MAP01 by Walter Confalonieri
=======================================
Title: Toxic Tower
Author: Walter Confalonieri
Description: An old unfinished map that i made in 2015 and bring back in these days. It was made using only the textures from the jmickle texture generator.
It's a map that reminds of a mixture of The Chasm and Icon of Sin in aesthetics.
Port: Boom
New Music: Yes (D_OPENIN)

one of those scavenger levels where you have to worship individual ammo clips and armour helmets
it is dark (idea is a sabotage mission vs a weird tech facility)
intended strictly as a single player level
thanks!

Comments: I forgot to check if ESP2 won a cacoward this year.

===========================
DMP2018cl9 MAP12 by Scypek2
===========================
I did it, I did it, I did it.
 
Day of the Rope (Boom format)
Music used: Lee Jackson - Taking The Death Toll (Duke Nukem 3D soundtrack)
Skill levels, co-op and deathmatch supported.
 
Recording the demo took me 45 minutes, and it was one hell of a ride. More so thanks to my unfocusing window and sticking keys, but that was secondary...
 
Notes:
 - the level is considerably story-focused, and begins with a pretty long and linear intro. As explained by the (visible but not very prominent) writing on the floor, you can skip it by repeatedly pressing use on the window-facing edge. Not recommended the first time, but most definitely useful when you're playing without saves! The "intro" officially ends upon reaching the area in screenshot 1.
 - despite having unreachable monsters, 100% kills is possible! The unreachable monsters will be taken care of once you press the final switch. The defenseless prisoners and one intro-only enemy are also optional to kill.
 - the level is stingy with health and ammo alike, but it's still beatable on UV without getting a single secret! I tested it, and only had to reload a save once.

===============================
DMP2018cl9 MAP13 by Ninehills42
===============================
Name: Master Procrastination
Author: Ninehills42
Music: Hot Butter - Popcorn
Difficulty settings: added
Text: This is a pretty difficult map. I started making it back in January, but i was busy, lazy, etc, so you guessed it: the name of the map refers to my lazyness. Anyways, there is no theme to this map, I just wanted to make something cool looking, and this is what I got. The difficulty is ramping up in the end, so watch out! Good luck.

=======================
DMP2018cl9 MAP14 by Jjp
=======================
Name: Doomed District
Compatibility: Boom
Music: "Caught in the Shadows" by Jimmy
Build time: 2 months
Difficulty settings: Yes
Tested with: PrBoom+ 2.5.1.4
 
Comments: A rather large city map that uses all six keys. HMP or HNTR is strongly recommended for a first playthrough.
 
The demo itself is over three and a half hours long, and it shows most of the map on UV, although it isn't a UV-Max since I decided to exit rather than risk dying to the last encounter. It is also abysmal. Feel free to fast forward through it. I even forgot where one of the secrets is located, and I was trying to remember where it was towards the end but gave up. I also didn't start recording it until today, when I finished squeezing everything I wanted to include in the map. It's actually my first time beating the map on UV too. Why did I leave it until the last minute...
 
There are a few minor bugs, including a stuck thing or two and some block sound lines that I should remove, but oh well.
