Fabio, congrats on your first map! This seems a difficult birth (20 years!), i hope the next map will arrive a little bit faster... ;) There are some good ideas in this map. The negative thing... too many textures. IMHO this would have been very good, especially for a first map, if just one set of textures / one style had been used throughout. Looking forward to the next map!

Mildly entertaining map with a few very good ideas. Very oldschool. Impressive for a first attempt started so many moons ago.

I really liked this. A mishmash of classic styles, from runic to base and back again. It's kind of weird, but I appreciated it since Quake mappers tend to be quite conservative about this and it gave it a freshness. The visuals are uneven as you might expect from a gestation with a double-decade interruption (the large churchy area near the start being the most late-90s). But saying that, there are lot of nice architectural ideas going on without it being fussy. Brutalism suits Quake best in any case. The nail-shooter trap area winding through itself to the outside was my favourite part of the map. It looked excellent with the runic flligree and was a tight bit of level design. Wish I could have worked out how to get that RL though. Speaking of secrets, the red armour entrance was a fine bit of in plain sight secret sequestering!

Difficulty was bang on for me, I probably died around 5 times on nightmare with 9/14 secrets. Ammo quite plentiful, but as long as you're dying, who cares?

I'm glad the author decided to finish and release this after 20 years. I don't mind the mixing of textures; it's charmingly old-school, and most of the individual rooms look good. The secrets are also good. I missed a bunch, and that alone gives this replay value.

I sort of don't admire this map much — the style mishmash is jarring, and the progression is very arbitrary — but boy, did I enjoy the heck out of it. Part of that is the perfect calibration of difficulty, so that I spent much of the time low on health and/or ammo. Not bad at all, and I am really glad this finally made it out into the wild!

I love the look and progression of this map and overall, I have no real issues with it! The only thing I might've taken more of a look at on this one is how difficult the quad run at the end is. The map is paced in a way that you can kind of take your time and you're not on edge, but then you're thrown into this part where you better grab that quad and make a run for it to take out as many enemies as you can before it runs out! It's a welcomed change of pace, however, it's tough! I found myself out of ammo at the end having to run the first half of it several times to get a good feel for how to approach the next area. The difficulty just ramps up out of nowhere and I think that more novice players might have a really hard time with this part.
