* some notes *

right from the start 3 enemies are killed [to be resurrected later] - on zdoom 2.8.1 shows up on the automap even though they are flagged to not count to it. it works as intended on lzdoom/uzdoom.

there is one secret that requires you to jump, but jumping is not required to finish the map at all, so play the way you want things should be good. i hope.

map was originally made as a vanilla heretic level, but i was too lazy to brainstorm proper gameplay for some of the open areas without it being messy and chaotic, so i went with zdoom since it was much easier to manage enemies via acs. that should explain some of the lack of detail in some areas [also lazy to bother with it].

swamp trees & tiki sprites from raven software's necrodome, taken from https://www.spriters-resource.com/
ADEL_N06 + DEADGUY1/ taken from crucified dreams [adel_n07 is just a simple quick edit]
SCBONES0 + SCFACES1/2/3 taken from raven software's shadowcaster
broken glass sprites + sound from raven software's hexen
the rest are just simple edits by me.

if you happen to like the song i wrote, and happen to want to use it on your map, you are welcome to as long as you give proper credit.
