All four secrets are clever especially one that raises water in the main outdoor pit to reach rockets in an elevated alcove.Дoom isnвЂ™t capable of room over room, but Lee plays with sky heights to make the space look more 3D than it really is. Platforms raise out of the water, stairs build to allow new paths, and elevators lower to reveal power-ups. The best part about revisiting areas are the visual changes as the level progresses. The non-linear layout allows for a different gaming experience over multiple sessions. This isnвЂ™t depth-first search (as found in most user-created WADs) since the design is more organic. The layout itself is compact, but areas are traversed multiple times. No visplane overflows or HOM glitches which is an accomplishment given the level of detail in view at all times. On the technical side, the first thing to note is that it works in doom2.exe. The Ultimate Doom episode 4 orange sky and post-industrial theme make this reminiscent of Quake 2 and Parallel TeamвЂ™s Fragfest Initialized. But amongst the heap was LeeвЂ™s awesome all-new level, вЂWater Treatment FacilityвЂ™. I wasnвЂ™t expected much from a thrown-together assembly of some authorsвЂ™ forgotten work. As he was leaving the Doom community in 2004, Anthony Soto released a small WAD of leftover maps named End Game.

Included were his X-Fire deathmatch series along with single level contributions to The Darkening Episode 2, 10 Sectors, and Alien Vendetta. LeeвЂ™s initial Doom 2 work made a passing grade but wasnвЂ™t too mindblowing. Here are the communityвЂ™s custom Doom levels, in no particular order.Д®nd Game MAP07 вЂWater Treatment FacilityвЂ™ Give me material thatвЂ™s creative in music, story, and visual splendour. Technical limits of their engines get stretched and creativity runs rampant. This is the best Ultimate Doom and Doom 2 have to offer in the single modification department. They are my favourites and maybe not yours.
