Hanz here, and I've worked hard on this new wad for you guys! I feel this is a great improvement over my last wad ( Compound Crawler ) thanks in part to the use of advanced lighting techniques, better ammo balancing, a more fluent level layout, detailed amenities, and much more! I've learned how to import custom textures, which has made some parts of the map a lot more aesthetically pleasing ( particularly the starting area ). Also, this will be my first wad that uses mp3 music! ( which is Quake 1 OST - Focus ). Alongside this, I've added a custom title and credit screen, and M_DOOM graphic. Overall, I hope you guys playing this as much as I did making it! As always, constructive criticism is not only appreciated, but wanted!

I really liked it! Although to be hones the first area was a bit claustrophobic, but other than that, pretty good wad.

Yea I'm sorry, I wanted to include a screenshot alongside the logo, but the 256k cap disabled me from doing so : :cry:

Consider resizing it with something like Irfanview and hosting using an external image host like Imgur.

Critiques:
-The usage of fireblu feels kinda odd, I normally think of that of a small detailing texture. For the pedestal (near SSG) maybe make it a blood flow instead? The only other problem with it in was the second to last room.
-The plain yellow of the yellow key stand and the parking stops looks off.
Spoiler: Secrets
Another nice map, keep it up!

Thank you again isaac! By second to last room, do you mean the room to the right of the "exit", do you mean the room with the thin walkway, with walkways on the two sides of it where the monsters were? Also, is the problem the usage of the fireblu texture, or is it something else entirely? As far as the parking stop texture is concerned, do you think I should've made it darker, or used a different texture entirely? Also, I just put the Keen there for fun. Again, thank you for leaving your feedback!

Second to last room as in the one where you pick up the rocket launcher. The problem with it there is just the quantity of the fireblu, the fact that it's the entire wall just seems off putting to me. As for the other usage I mentioned, it seemed to clash with the surrounding textures, feeling out of place.

The yellow texture used for the parking stop is odd due to the fact that it's neon yellow, and seems to have no detailing to it. It's just yellow. It just seems to horribly contrast with all the other textures in the level. Though I'm not sure if there's really a better texture for it.

Though these are all my personal nitpicks, if you're happy with their look then don't let one dissenting opinion throw you off.

I've played your map by the way and I was surprised that a Keen was in the map for the lolz. I saw a yellow texture in some sectors of the map, it looks strange for the aesthetic of the map. Also, I will make a video of it for better feedback :)

It's ok my dude, I can see where you are coming from with the yellow, after taking a second look. It was a custom texture I imported, so I could just import a new texture that is darker.
