I'm very glad you liked it.
It's quite "corridory" ....
Ha! I knew you'd feel that way if you played the map. You felt the same way after
Fear Station: Bravo
I even managed to ... find all secrets (without reading your secrets file - normally something I fail miserably at) and collect all items.
Yes, secret areas in my maps seem to have a way of getting your goat. I must be slipping in my old age.
Took me 30 minutes and 3 seconds.
That's probably 15-20 minutes faster than I'm able to do.
Incidentally, the battles play differently, depending on which weapons you pick up. For instance, you meet generally lesser resistance if you only pick up the shotgun, chaingun, and chainsaw. Somewhat stiffer resistance if you pick up the super shotgun. And maximum resistance if you pick up the rocket launcher and/or the plasma rifle. In other words, aside from the non-linearity lending itself to replay value, your decisions to pick up or skirt those 3 weapons also add to the replay value.
