A 32-level megawad created by Nathan Lineback of toastytech.com, and I think it only gets interesting near the end. It was originally made in 1995 and was up on The Library of Trantor BBS, but that shut down, and so it was eventually updated and completed with anti-Microsoft added after the creator's experience with Microsoft products. It would've been interesting to see how it was like before all that anti-MS stuff was added. If I had to be honest though, I personally liked Microsoft before Windows 11 and their acquisition of some indie block game.

The protagonist of the WAD is a Martian terraformer stuck in the middle of nowhere, with the United Organizations of Earth attempting to take control of Mars with a large amount of cloned space-warp technology. However, these ships were built by "MS", and thus something went wrong with those ships, as they did bring out a bunch of hellspawn.

I don't really think playing all these levels were worth it just to reach MAP30. You're better off just warping straight there, just like v2's text file said, for a straight anti-MS fix. Yeah, that map was the only reason why I wanted to play this, honestly.
