Title : Who's afraid of the dark?
Filename : WAOTD.WAD
Author : Joseph J. Pecoraro
Email Address : Pecoraro@aol.com
Description : This DOOM2, level 1 PWAD is the net result of
playing and studying dozens of other levels. I
incorporated all my favorite tricks and traps into
this one, three key level.
WAOTD.WAD is designed as a mini-game, taking you
from pistol to BFG 9000. All the bad guys are here
as well as just enough power-ups and ammo to get
you through the level. One of the frustrating
aspects of this level is that each goal -- ending,
keys, etc. are in plain sight -- but you have to
deduce how to "get there from here" while fighting
off the strategically place enemies. You need to
be observant as well as vigilant, and there is
a maze problem that will challenge you too.
I have included a demo file, HOW2.LMP, that shows
the entire level played without cheating. It took
me over 17 minutes to make it, and I know all the
tricks! To view it be sure that WAOTD.WAD
and HOW2.LMP are both unzipped into your DOOM2
sub-directory. Then use the following DOS command:
doom2 -file WAOTD.WAD -playdemo how2
This level should provide you with many hours of
intense action!
Additional Credits to : My kids, Megan, Joe, Mike
and Steven who put in a lot of test-play time and
helped me root out the bugs. I think we got them
all. I will say that most of the "bugs" turned
out to be problems with the DoomCad node builder,
because after processing the wad with WARM 1.3 they
disappeared.

UnZip WAOTD.ZIP and put WAOTD.WAD into your DOOM2 sub-directory.
At the DOS prompt type:

set your gamma correction, (F11 key), to as low a setting as you're
comfortable with to keep with the spirit of the level! This WILL NOT
permanently modify your game. It will only temporarily replace your level 1
with the WAOTD level. Enjoy!
