Post classic FPS (TM). Here's some OC. This is a very early WIP of my current map project (number 3). I love starts like this where you're allowed to make the first move. Sunlust had a few of them, but mine's obviously easier since I'm not a doom god.

The "way the dev intends" is to not fire a single shot. You start with four shells + the shotgun laying directly on your spawn. Run past everything. Arachnotrons in the towers will start shooting you. So will mancubi on the ground between the towers. Follow the trail of health (not pictured) to a rocket launcher and fight some skeletons. Move too slowly and the mob you ran past at the start will fry you. That's as far as I've gotten in about 2 hours.

After the skeletons, I hope to set up a quick telefrag/crusher sequence to let the player squash the tower arachnotrons. The last teleporter will warp to the next area. I'll probably surround the player with monsters on the other end of the teleport to make up for letting them run away during the first part.
