Description             : This wad is my experiment.

For me it is a slaughter map sub genre(SOT map 29 is a prototype), that has following goals:
 
1. Emphasis on progression and exploration.

2. More accessible difficulty.

3. Has areas with standard non slaughter combat.

4. Has Intro/Outro and Interlude maps.
