Normally when I hear about the rare occasions where people associated with Quake come back to do a level for Doom, I go in with very low expectations. I guess that's why the layout of this map left me fairly impressed. It's nothing spectacular, but the way the textures are stacked and the smooth curvatures of the hallways are appealing.

This level will keep you interested for about 4 minutes in a real deathmatch - the arena is very, very simple and only uses one texture theme throughout. This particular setup would have made a cool room in, say, Darkening E2, but making a whole level out of it just gives it a tired look.

As a stand-alone level, I would have expected quite a lot more area to cover and a much larger variety of texture usage. But I recommend downloading it anyways. It's only 68K and really nice to look at, even if you don't have a home network to DM on >:)

Overall: 6.5/10
