It's the best official Doom 1 episode. I would go mad trying to beat it without save scumming though.

It's good but not really amazing.
The nice thing about the level design is that it's anti-circle strafing, it's cramped to the point where that isn't a possibility, so it brings Doom back to the corner peaking action that it used to be all about when it came out.
I have a feeling this was his goal, to replicate the old Doom gameplay feel, how people played it back when it came out; before shit like Serious Sam and Quake 3 influenced how Doomers saw "objectively good level design and gameplay".

But this is also a double edged sword and can result in levels that are too cramped; especially when coupled with some of traps like the series of ceiling crushers; or Cyberdemon rocket splash damage.

it's good but somewhat disappointing. the cramped and precarious maps are a breath of fresh air in UDoom modding, but there are also too many grindy baron fights and item distribution could've been handled better.

its good. it runs on psp with doom source port. thats good enough reason to get it

It's definitely well made. It doesn't really work too well with brutal doom or similar mods, to me it's best played vanilla. I personally have way more fun sticking plutonia and tnt into brutal doom but that doesn't take away from what romero accomplished here.
