=========================================================================== Review : Good design and good challenge. Beautiful. =========================================================================== Primary purpose : Single+Coop play =========================================================================== Title : STAR-B-Q.WAD Filename : STAR-B-Q.WAD Release date : 09/30/94 MM/DD/YY (Timestamp of the files in the zip) Author : Jim Allen Email Address : jimsallen@aol.com Misc. Author Info : Comments, suggestions and bug reports are welcome. Please send them to the above e-mail address. Description : You're invited to a cookout. But this ain't no picnic! Prepare to fry some demonic butt as you claw your way out of the Star Chamber to find out what lies beyond. But keep an eye on your back, or you may be next on the spit! This is one of those infamous "first WAD" attempts. As such it includes the usual hodge- podge of every idea the author ever thought of regarding a DOOM level. Yes, most anything regarding theme and consistency has been tossed carelessly over the edge of the abyss, with a spicy mixture of nifty puzzles, neat gizmos and cool structures proudly taking their place. It ain't French cookin', but it oughta satisfy a hungry Doomer for a meal or two. Watch for the baron's BBQ...and there's some fairly amazing graphic textures at the end...if you can make it that far. <8-) Additional Credits to : Ken "Shotgun" Gole - Play tester, advisor, LMP maker and all-around Doom buddy.
