Nice little map with casual gameplay. Very enjoyable. Simple but effective construction and style, thus short build time - I hope there will be more maps like this in the future.
Cheers for this.

this was like a nu-skool version of roger staines' ancient aqueduct if anyone remembers that. very strong vondur vibe naturally; solid designs, fairly solid combat & nice progression between themes. died once on normal but that was only due to thinking i had nails when i didn't (=boom)

What others said: very nice map, solid brushwork, and fun gameplay. Very effective lightning effects, and nice sense of details.. How have you been able to build such map is so few time ? I am so jalous !!
Died twice on Hard, found 1 secrets..
Have to replay it to find out more secrets ;)
I can't wait to play next of you maps !
Looks Great
Screenies look great, especially the 2nd one. I'll play it as soon as I get home!

Nice map, good style, like the contrast between the various areas tied together by the archy designs. Didn't get too samey. Fog looked good in it. Gameplay was good standard Quake although I died getting past the lava as I was too casual. Lava wasn't too annoying tho.
Opened the health secret but couldn;t find it, argh!!

I really liked this map! Nice architecture, good flow and great gameplay. First-run on nightmare, died right before the silver key though:

Too Hard

Nice map Vondur, simple, but beautiful. Only one problem - I played on easy and it was too hard for me. I was able to finish after a few save/load, but I had to play with great care, backing up and luring monsters after me. The room with 2 shamblers and a lot of fiends was way too hard for the easy skill. Then I tried to load the map in nightmare skill. 82 monsters vs 80 monsters on easy !!!
WTF man, no offense, but that's an insult to less skilled players. I like Quake a lot, but I want to play it relaxed, not stressed and jumping like a mad mad to avoid monsters.
It's ok if the map is very difficult (almost impossible to finish) on nightmare. It's very good it the map is hard on hard. But man...please make easy EASY !!! Please...

Thanks guys, glad u like the map, and thanks for the demos.
RaverX, sorry i didn't tune this map for easy thinking there's no need for that. I was wrong it seems.

..it takes a few seconds to select a dozen or so random monsters and gwarn the 'not in easy' flag. and maybe chuck an RA or two in. no excuse ;)

Awesome atmosphere and architecture for such a small development cycle. Everything is straightforward and interesting at the same time. Although the layout and gameplay seemed a bit simple at times, it kept compelling me onward!
Thank you for another great Quake setpiece!
