Description             : A community made Episode 4 replacement for 
                          Ultimate Doom, sequel of the highly 
                          acclaimed and cacoward runner-up Deadly
			  Standards episodic series.
                          This time the classic stock assests theme
			  got a rough deviation to more new assets,
			  taken mostly from Alpha Doom and Romero
			  dump of unused assets, as well as some other
			  sources like Doomer Boards: Earth Ends and
			  Ghostbusters Doom.
			  Fight a terryfing world of a hell (on Earth?)
			  that you never experienced before! Behold,
			  the horrors of bureaucracy in a corporate
			  world where anonymous towns are dominated
			  by brutalism!

(stolen from DMP2015 textfile yolo)

Title music: In a blaze of Glory by Jimmy
Intermission music: Lookin Up by Cassiopea

E4M1 - Breaking Contract! by Walter "daimon" Confalonieri

New music: Lee jackson - Future Military Conquest
Play time: 15 minutes on HMP
Build time: 15 days on and off between November and July
Tested with: Crispy Doom 5.10.1, Nugget Doom
Description: You've been caught by demons and imprisoned in this prison camp, what do you do? Accept your fate or fight it? Fun that i made two maps for this projects and both have something to do with prisons...
Lots of Doomcute, quite lots of monsters and quite lots of fun in making it, hope you have fun playing this as well! 

E4M2 - Blackwater Park by NeedHealth

Build time: About 1 and half year, with a long pause inbetween.
New music (if any): 21 Dredge (Extended).MID by Mark Klem. Thanks to SilverMiner for the suggestion.
Tested with: prboom+ and dsda-doom.
Playtime: about 25 minutes.
Description:  Part office, part dig site. Probably not part OSHA.

All difficulties should be accounted for. No other starts than player 1 and the map isnt really optimized for multiplayer.

E4M3 - Not a sewer by SilverMiner

New music (if any): Mark Klem
Description: I've made a map and haven't come up with name yet.

E4M4 - News Station "Whatever" by DukeOfDoom and SilverMiner

Description: Suddenly - Here's a E4M4 by DukeofDoom and me.
New Music:Damage Assessment by Mark Klem

E4M5 - Venture Capitol by cannonball

Description: A fairly compact techbase/city map. Should take less than 10 minutes to complete for most. I ran through this before releasing, I only died once so I wouldn't say this is a particularly difficult map, though there will be plenty of projectiles flying around and a couple of tricky moments.
Build time: 4 days (Couple of hours a day)
New Music: "Gold Rush" by Stewboy
Tested in: DSDA Doom 

E4M6 - Human Surrender by NeedHealth

Description: A slice of the end days, inspired by the designs of Monty.
Build time: 6 months on and on
New music (if any): Recycle.mid by Maxime Tondreau(Psychedelic Eyeball)
Tested with: dsda-doom-0.21.3

E4M7 - Sad Retaken Voyager by SilverMiner, DukeOfDoom and Chainie

Description: So, e4m7
Music: Organic Gods by Mark Klem

E4M8 - Olympus Minds by cannonball

New music: Equinox MAP13 music by B.P.R.D
Tested with: DSDA doom
Description: Despite my fears, I actually got through this fairly easily, still there are a couple of slugfests at the end. Just use your BFG wisely, though there should be enough rockets to cover any shortfalls.

E4M9 - Office Castle by Endless

Build time: About 6 hours.
New music (if any): Yes, Turning Tricks by Lippeth
Tested with: GZDoom, Doom Retro and Crispy Doom.
Description: Small and fast map that combines office aesthetic with castle style. First time I ever speedmap (with 6 hours, still) so I hope this little thingy is fun for everyone.
