(Links, secrets and more information at the bottom of the description)
Hello. Another day, another PC Zone lvl finalist map to go through. We're doing a map called 'Comp', made by S. A. Perry.
This one's mostly solid from start to finish, with minimal issues to report.
• Visuals are rather usual style of '94. Not the greatest at detailing even, if attempts ate there, but it's still mostly ok. This map's only issues are just visual oversights... basically few different upper wall textures that have been missed here and there, so missing textures.
• Difficulty is easy, as usual with these early wads, but there are few traps around, which are a good start for the diversity of traps in the future of wads to come in general. Blue Key room's monster teleports could've been made a little bit faster and reliable, because you have to wait and move around, until all the monsters hit the teleports from those 3 rooms.
• Health & armor seems to be in a decent balance as well. It doesn't over or under supply.
• Ammo balance is a bit plentiful. Shouldn't run into ammo problems at least.
• Additionally I could say that this level flows forward pretty well: You really get one choice to go forward at any point, but it doesn't confuse at any point, which can happen with some other maps.
You should easily know, where to go next.
• Also clues were given to secrets, so they were executed well as well. Maybe could've left one of the SS's out from one or the other, but all good.
Only one sort of issue to report in this map:
• Few different locations, where upper wall textures are missing. Only a visual issue, but that's pretty much it, as far as issues are concerned
So yeah. This one was a decent experience overall, flowed well, decent start for mapping (if it continued for this particular author) and only minor visual issues.
