============================================================================= Title : The Dark Tower Filename : DARKTOWR.WAD Author : Samuel Lock (aka Lord Unum, Marduk) Email Address : [email protected] <--preferred [email protected] [email protected] Misc. Author Info : An all-around Doom/Global Wars nut! Love kicking back and listening to L.A.'s very own Loveline show on the world famous KROQ. Mail me with any info on who this bigfoot a**hole is! (you hafta listen to the show to know who this f00l is...) Author of the short-lived Bacardi series. Thanks to all the people who sent tons of info on the five levels. I really appreciated it. I have now switched to releasing my levels as I construct them, to quicker satisfy all you doomers with the insatiable hunger for really good deathmatch levels. I currently reside in a Los Angeles suburb and am attending a nearby state university for my under- grad studies. Well, enough about me. Onto the LEVEL! Description : Well, um, I think the title sums it up right? ;) Seriously, the level is fairly simple (like most of my levels) consisting of an outside playing field and a central tower with no interior lighting that contains the more powerful weapons. The most power- ful weapon (depending on the skill level) is positioned on one high end of the arena, which is reachable by a risky teleport on the opposite side of the arena. Additional Credits to : SlowŸingers, aka 2kœœu ([email protected]) - a classy guy whose skills at deathmatch are wondered at by so many (ehehe). we've had many a good game at Doom2 deathmatch. ** THE FASTEST ’ïS IN THE WEST! ** Also sysop/owner of my favorite BBS, 2KiLLu's Wad House, Doom-alike/DWANGO central in Long Beach. Drop on by sometime! Oh, forgot to thank him for being always one of the first people to try out and give feedback on my levels! Midiguy ([email protected]) OR ([email protected]) - SO F*CKIN HARD TO BEAT THIS GUY!! ehehe, at least for me. He's got .MID files up the wazoo, and has made many pretty darn good (and stylish) deathmatch levels. His levels have been profiled in PC Gamer!

Trust me guys, I will be back...sooner than you think...and with a working mouse! :) The Innocent Crew, TiC - these guys have worked so hard to make so many great add-ons for both Doom/Doom2.

The weapons appear as follows: + Skill 1/2: Shotgun, and some ammo at startup Super shotgun, and chaingun in the tower Rocket launcher on southern "pedestal" + Skill 3: Shotgun and Super shotgun and a little ammo upon startup Chaingun and rocket launcher in the tower Plasma gun on "pedestal" + Skill 4/5: Shotgun, chaingun, and super shotgun available at start Rocket launcher and plasma gun in tower BFG 9000 on the "pedestal" The exit contains a RESET switch ONLY! I decided that much alike MrBlonde's EXCELLENT deathmatch levels, I knew the player would load this level to play this level ONLY. The music I inserted keeps the adrenalin pumping. I hate who get fragged the twice get frustrated and decide to leave the level for another non-deathmatch level and thusly bomb out. So I included two "niches" on each side of the exit switch to sneak upon a wussy enemy trying to leave a level too early! ;) The sky texture I just had to include! It's the best one out there TRUST ME! The blue storm sky from heretic I think is much overused now, and heck, I dec- ided to act on my individuality. I hope you have many a good fragging time on this level. Send me e-mail's telling me whether or not you like this level, and what could be done to improve this level, or any suggestions for a new level.
