[ Advanced engine needed: None; Primary purpose: Single-player ] =========================================================================== Title : DARK FATE Date Finished : 19 April 2003 Author : Karthik Abhiram Email Address : me@karthik82.com 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...)
