- Title : STAIRWAR
- Filename : STAIRWAR.WAD
- Author : Eric van Bezooijen
- Email Address : eric@csua.berkeley.edu
- Misc. Author Info : http://www.csua.berkeley.edu/~eric/
-
- Description : A single room map, with all of the weapons,
- and tons of ammo, and a whole horde of monsters.
- A pretty big challenge for a player to
- finish (the beginning is pretty rough) in a
- single-player game, but I can do it, so you
- should be able to as well! =O). I've never tried
- it with > 2 players... It's kind
- slow with multiple players until you kill off
- most of the monsters, and then the speed improves
- (this is on 486-66 Mhz machines with 128Kb cache)
- The theme: The world's longest marble staircase!
-
- To play this wad file, run:
- doom -file stairwar.wad
-
- If you can't solve the level, I've included a demo
- of me solving it (stairwar.lmp). Only look at it
- as a last resort, it spoiles everything!
- To play the demo, run:
- doom -playdemo stairwar -file stairwar.wad
-
- Additional Credits to : Kenneth S. Forte, who wrote the ULTIMA.WAD file
- which I base mine on (I couldn't get DEU to work
- without crashing starting from scratch), although
- this level barely resembles his level.
- To the creators of DOOM and DEU - may all of you
- be enshrined as gods in the years to come!

- Authors MAY use this level as a base to build additional
- levels. However, I don't recommend it! I was learning, so there
- is no logic to most of the sectors, or any consistency. Use
- ULTIMA.WAD to build off of instead, it's much more clean.
-
- You MAY distribute this WAD, provided you include this file, with
- no modifications. You may distribute this file in any electronic
- format (BBS, Diskette, CD, etc) as long as you include this file
- intact.
