A lovely map but I'm not totally sold on the gameplay. Did have some fun though. I'm never quite sure mappers put items in the map that you can't reach, except in cases of decorations. The invisibility is just...pointless.

@Tig - Did you notice the Q3 symbol in the architecture here? I mention it because you talk about it here: lvlworld.com/review/id:2040

Can't get the thrill others seem to get in this map. I'm not keen on lava, to be honest and this has too much. I found myself stuck around corridors. Lacks pace imo. :/

Actually, the spider resembles Latrodectus Tredecimguttatus more. And I'm sorry this sort of got so somewhat off-topic. Just thought I'd point that out.

It looks a lot like a super sized 'Red Back Spider' - www.google.com/search - The markings are a little different but the shape is similar. The Red Back is common in Australia.

Question: In the 3rd screenshot, does that spider really exist in real life?

@EmeraldTiger: Mapping is just a hobby for me. I don't like deadlines or working under pressure. I also want to be free, to create whatever I want.
Nevertheless I would be glad to see someday one of my maps official in QL. :)

Ever considered getting a job at id software?

This is a brilliant map; everyone else pretty much said it all. If id takes a look at these, it would be a good idea for them to put this on QL so we can play it online.

Thanks for the positive review!

I started to make this map in 2002 and released a beta. But the gameplay wasn't really good. So it stays on my harddrive for a long time. Years later i decided to rework the map:

  • all rooms are scaled up a little bit.
  • adding the lower lava corridors to gain connectivity.
  • adding the quad-chamber.
  • adding the MH jumppad
  • general polishing and eyecandy.
PS: Don't try to get the invisibility! :D

Very nice level with a classic Q3A gothic theme and professional looking architecture.
