That looks really nice! We need more Doom 64/PSX style levels. I'll definitely be trying it out today.

Really interesting and fun mapset, Dante. I enjoyed the hell of out the first five levels, Memento Mori being a huge eyebrow-raiser. Your usage of traps and frequent slaughter armies are well balanced, requiring wit of the player and skill to subdue the demonic forces. I didn't find any bugs so far, playing with Complex Doom made things WAAY harder than they needed to be, just the way I like it. I made it to MAP05 before discontinuing gameplay. I don't know if it's Complex Doom, or Zandronum, but the massive framerate drop after the Lift Door Room killed my will to play it. I'll try loading without Complex here in a bit to see if it's better. If not, I do enjoy this set of levels. You put time and formula into the layouts, some even having a PSX Final Doom TNT feel, which is WICKED.
For fellow players, keep your wits about you. The level changes as you progress, so take note to these changes and they may save your life and countless restarts/save-loads
I don't have much of a critique, as I'm more of a reviewer than a critic who gripes about their play-style and how the PK3 doesn't suit their tastes. This is what I play Doom for, and if you're looking for a casual experience, Start with Hurt Me Plenty, or HNTR.

Ohhhh this looks interesting, you planning on conforming them to their limits or you just keeping it as it is?

Good map set. Hard as H*** but i'm sure all diehard Doom fans would enjoy this wad
NOTE : I just discovered that this wad is compatible with many other mods. Even with Brutal Doom Which opens lots of possible mods combo meaning lots of gameplay variants
Good work

Awesome. I always loved the PSX Doom atmosphere maps. Just wish people would make more of them.

Finished this finally today, MAP05 can be confusing after you defeat the Cyberdemons in the Red Cross arena. I became lost and wandered aimlessly for minutes in the map. Framerate issues died after playing vanilla w/o gameplay mods. I really liked that you used the Final Doom Super Shotgun
There were some little HOMs near the Blue Skull Door on MAP05, perhaps I'll send you screenshots. It may be a -ism caused by using Zandronum and not GZDoom.
The final battle was very intense, unexpected and WILL laugh in your repetitive turmoil in the struggle against the Annihilator.
MORE PLZ

That could be improved further if it wasn't using setslot; no mod with a weapon on Slot 9 will work fully until that's fixed.

Of course, I did work on the Lost Levels after all.
