What an incredible episode! I had a blast playing it casually and then routing the run. The mappers nailed the tone and atmosphere, making it an unforgettable experience. I also loved the Lovecraft references—one map mentions Azathoth, and there’s a hidden room full of Easter eggs in a secret level.
If you haven't played this custom episode yet, I highly recommend it. It's a must-play, and I’d rate it around 8–8.5/10. Below is my route breakdown:
ZE1M1:
Grab the armor at the start—it’ll be crucial later. Follow the casual route, press the button, jump across the water, and reach the last button that opens the exit and where the secret portal-door is that leads to the necessary key for the secret exit. You must play all secret maps since 3/4 runes are there, essential for accessing the final level.
ZE1M1S:
Nothing special—just grab the silver key by swimming down at the start. Most doors here require it. Standard route, no major tricks. (1/4 runes obtained)
ZE1M2:
The armor from ZE1M1 is key here. Use a barrel boost to reach the upper level, skipping a big chunk of the map. Surviving afterwards is tough since enemies hit hard and health is scarce.
ZE1M3:
Grab the grenade launcher, slope-jump onto a box, and grenade-jump after the first button to gain speed. Another grenade jump after resurfacing leads to the button on the island. Then, dive back in and exit via the secret exit.
ZE1M3S:
This map resembles Hipnotic's E2M1. Grab the rocket launcher from a secret, drop down, rocket-jump onto the platform, and head straight for the exit. Don't forget the rune near the gate. (2/4 runes obtained)
ZE1M4:
Rush to grab armor at the start. Open the door, perform three rocket jumps to the top level, hit the last switch, drop down, and bait the Shambler to avoid getting zapped.
ZE1M5:
Since we already have the rocket launcher, skip its pickup. Instead, head behind the waterfall to hit a switch for the secret exit. Grab the gold key by double rocket-jumping to the top of a tower, drop down, open the door, hit the switch, and rocket-jump to the second switch to unlock the final grate.
ZE1M5S:
Straightforward—head to the exit while dodging enemies. Don't forget the rune. (3/4 runes obtained)
ZE1M6:
Rocket-jump to the second floor, kill the fiend behind the door, swim to grab armor, and perform multiple rocket jumps to hit switches that open the door below. A few more rocket jumps finish the level. (4/4 runes obtained)
START:
Counts for some reason—nothing noteworthy.
ZE1END:
Enter the portal, grenade-jump to the switch, then proceed as normal. In the boss fight, kill the Shambler and knights, then pull off an insane rocket jump to hit the first cycle. GGs!
