                          [+61-3-9439-4340], lives in Melbourne, Oz.
                          Oh, and loves Helen Hunt.

Description             : A1-SPACE.WAD is a huge abandoned space-ship,
                          with four major levels, all connected by a
                          central elevator. Each level contains large
                          areas, filled with various hazards, objects
                          and weapons. The best bit: All the rooms etc.
                          are connected by futuristic looking tunnels
                          [a la ALIENS, but better graphics :)...]
                          This WAD is designed for deathmatch... and
                          SCARY deathmatch at that. For more atmosphere,
                          read the background story.

Background Story        : Far into the future, you and your space-buddy are
                          cruising through space :), when all of a sudden
                          your radars detect a large ship. You decide to
                          investigate, and when no-one on the ship responds,
                          you dock into the ship's landing bay. The whole
                          place is abandoned, yet seems in prestine condition.
                          After a short scope of the area, you both decide to
                          split up and search the ship for any survivors. You
                          climb into the elevator while your friend stays on
                          the top deck. About five minutes later, a shrieking
                          echo makes its way to your ears. You immediately
                          race for the elevator, but find it's already on its
                          way down. The metal grate slides open, to reveal...
                          your buddy. PHEW! Suddenly, without warning, he
                          pulls a gun on you and begins firing! It's at that
                          moment that you notice his eyes are glowing red,
                          and he's foaming at the mouth. You make a break for
                          the docking bay, only to find your ship taking off.
                          A brief glance in the cockpit window reveals a
                          disgusting creature at the controls. Looks like
                          you're going to have to stay and fight your posessed
                          buddy... and whatever else is on board.

Level Information       : To end the level, go to the ESCAPE PODS room, get
                          inside the last escape pod [all the others have
                          taken off], and activate the computer [like a
                          switch].
                          You may find the alarm/siren to get a little bit
                          tedious. If you want to play the level without
                          the alarms, choose skill level 1. [The level
                          is exactly the same, don't worry :)]
