Eerie hellish atmosphere is supported by Doom64 soundtrack and switches that take away the player's health (sacrifice your blood to advance!).

It begins with an introduction map that reminds of Quake. A map which is focused on interesting exploration and sets the mood thanks to excellent static meshes that use Doom64 textures nicely. There's also a well-placed fog.

Textures themselves received normalmaps and specular maps. Sometimes we find concrete and brick textures from DNF, they give nightmarish feel.

From time to time we operate switches, it is animated. A great and memorable idea is to make Duke carry a demonic emblem. It reminded me of carrying the barrel in Extreme Chase.

There's still lack of checkpoints and combat can suddenly get very dangerous at times. Thankfully the level is short enough for this not to become a nuisance.

There's some exploration, some room for getting lost and places you might miss on first playthrough to keep things interesting and replayable.

I heard there's going to be a whole campaign of amazing levels with doom64 atmosphere. Look forward to it.
