Hi all,

Story - Not much of one, basically I wanted to build a volcano...

Config details - gzdoom Doom2 (UDMF) map, tested with gzdoom v4.5.0 and later
Supports single player / co-op.

EDIT- Jump and crouching allowed and may be required in some parts.

Screenshots:

Thanks for the kind comments, I hope you liked the end battle - I spent a bit of time trying to get it to work right.

Thanks for posting that, I found it very useful - I really felt your frustration at not being able to get through to the Orange key door. I've got to take that as not making it obvious enough how to get across there. Jumping and crouching are allowed in this level if that helps - I should have made that more clear. if you want to know where to go then read the spoiler below
Spoiler:
I also noticed you didn't find the way out of the lava by the 2 revenants, again - my level design flaw, I'll try and make it more obvious. All lava pits should have a way out IMO so I make sure all mine do.
Spoiler:
Hope you enjoyed it so far, and look forward to seeing if you come back to it and progress to the end. You missed a couple of secrets but I guess you were concentrating on finding the way through.
Again, thanks for the vid clip it really helps to see how other people play a level to show up weaknesses in the design etc.
