-- Map 08 Update --
Thanks for the feedback, guys. Basically all the weapon and ammo placement have been switched around so there's a more organic flow - I tried following you guy's advice to make it a more rocket-launcher centric map instead of a SSG slog.
I've also reworked a few of the encounters. The first encounter doesn't have a fuck ton of cacos, the last encounter actually added a bit more so there's more pressure, and I've changed a few enemies around. There's more hitscanners in general so you can't cheese some rooms as easily, and a few halloween specific enemies have been thrown around to spice up a few of the battles. It really is just a few though since I don't exactly know how to use many of these enemies.
I also changed the crate textures to be more appropriate and messed around a little bit with room shapes and sizes. But as I already said, I want to leave detailing for later (plus I kinda suck at it lol).
I played through it myself, and in my opinion, it's just a bit harder. I had to dip into the secrets but I'm not exactly a good player. I like how this version puts more emphasis on the chaingun and rocket launcher than the previous version did (in hindsight, I don't know why I put the chaingun practically at the end, it's only useful for the final room at that point and only if you didn't pick up the free plasma)

It seems fine to me, but if it is too dark for you guys, I can bump it up pretty easily. I'm just worried the sky cliffs will look weird if it's too bright.
