Goddammit, fucking connection ate my post.

So I would have taken more screenshots, but there's actually not much to look at visually. A lot of it is just the bright white.
The exception is the key room (decorated with classic gray and green marble), where a cyberdemon pokes up from the floor when you grab the key, and you're supposed to jump down into the toxic sludge, pick up a radsuit and go for a teleporter.
It has sort of a deep water effect going, which kind of works here.

Speaking of the teleporters, this is where the level is pretty unusual, until now, teleporters has mostly been just generic pentagram pads, but in this level, you instead have just a line, which is flanked by a pair of lamp posts, where you walk between them and that's the teleporter. Nothing is done to telegraph this, and you're kind of stuck wandering the first arena wondering where to fucking go, until you stumble between them.
So you maybe kind of figure this out by then, but you're probably getting the idea by the key room.

The progression of this level is just really weird, nothing is clear at all, and some of the environments are disorienting and just odd to navigate. Speaking of which, I actually ended up cheating to get to the next secret level, while the regular exit is kind of an anticlimactic pad which tricks you into thinking you're picking up a Megasphere (in a large room with the white texture, except it's all pitchblack and full of pinkies), the secret exit is hidden in a small room outside the rest of the map, and there's no obvious way to get there, I looked everywhere for secret doors, teleporters, switches, etc.
I maybe wouldn't otherwise, but if this secret level is this weird and unorthodox, surely the second one is even crazier, right? I had to see that.
