Description             : A Boom compatible 6 maps journey through a
                          corrupted WAD.
                          
                          These maps aim for a difficulty a bit above Doom
                          2.
                          If you are a veteran of Doom, I highly encourage
                          you to enable co-op monsters in single player for a
                          much more satisfying experience.
                          For DSDA Doom, use the launch parameter
                          -coop_spawns
                          For UZDoom, select the Ultra-Violence+ difficulty
                          in the main menu (It's Ultra-Violence with co-op
                          monsters enabled)
                          For PRBoom+, use the launch parameter -solo-net
                          I'm less familiar with other ports, but I'm sure
                          they have ways to enable co-op monsters for your
                          enjoyment.
                          
                          If your using UZDoom, please use the Doom Software
                          renderer to avoid some visual bugs in Map05. If you
                          prefer to use the Hardware renderer, please disable
                          Ambient Occlusion as it completely destroy the
                          intended visuals.
