Archive Maintainer      : New from last week: a minor bugfix in map 20

			  I updated this to fix a few minor bugs, to include
                          the base dehacked so it can run in actual vanilla,
                          as well as update my textfile so that map one can
                          be slightly less inscrutable
Update to               : squirm.zip
Primary purpose         : Single play

Description             : It flickers in the periphery, you're keeping it there. 
You have been sleepwalking through a darkened dream for some time. A respite 
from the fire never long enough. You're still tired. Those flames an alarm you 
set on snooze. Fire. You've seen that color before. It's alright, you're roused
by now. It's time to return to the fight.

Map Listing		: 1: The Night Journey
                          	it is a good idea to start your doom wad with a
                          riddle, see top of text file.

                          	the big fight in this turned out so well I fought
                          the urge to just redo it for every map
                          6: Mass Transport Anarchy
                          	breather map that mostly exists for the fun

                          	this is purely a gimmick and I do not apologize, I
                          think its funny
                          9: Clogged Arteries
                          	this map got nerfed like 30 times and I still
                          think it may be too hard

                          	this map had a lot of changes to make it not
                          crash
                          16: Demonbad
                          	It was around this point I started struggling to
                          make interesting,
                          	not nonsensical wack encounters. This turned out

                          	These last maps are sort of experimental, but I
                          still like how they turned out mostly
