Title                   : DARK FATE

Date Finished           : 19 April 2003
Author                  : Karthik Abhiram
Email Address           : [email protected]
Misc. Author Info       : 20 year old Doomer from India, for more info
                          see http://karthik82.com.  There's lots of stuff
                          over there, both Doom and non-Doom related.

Description             : "Dark Fate" is a fast paced single player
                          level for Doom II, inspired by the style of the
                          original Doom's third episode, "Inferno".  This 
                          map was made quite fast, in probably about 15-20
                          hours.

                          It is a small map and will take you only a short
                          while to play.  Once you're done with that you
                          might also want to try playing it in deathmatch
                          mode!

Story                   : None (uh, you find yourself in hell and you
                          have to kill demons...)
