?!WTF Productions!? Presents The Punisher Tournament
So you think you're bad??
WTF Productions is proud to present our first contest, The Punisher
Tournament! The rules are simple, and anyone can enter. This contest is
based on punisher.wad entitled The Punisher. The author of the original
punisher, Dario Casali, has edited and enhanced it specifically for this
contest. He's added even more enemies and a few other surprises. The
participants will be judged by an LMP recording.

[] Kill Em All: The Highest percentage of kills (no time limit).
[] Roadrunner: Completing with the fastest time.
[] Rambo: Completing with the fastest time with 100% kills or over.
[] So Close, Yet So Far: Closest to the exit. IE, almost made it...
[] Cut Throat: The best moves and action sequences. IE, taking on 4
Cyberdemons in a small room and beating them.

Level Author : Dario Casali
Other work : Made 20 levels of "The Final Doom"
ID release:- early April.
Email Address : 92111159@brookes.ac.uk
Description : Sequal to "The Punisher"
For the demo competition I altered
the original Punisher, mostly by a
new set of monsters, but also made
some structural changes too.
This is the harened Doomer's Punishment
level. The original Punisher was too easy
for some so I made sure that this would
provide the very toughest Doomers with
their most challenging level ever.
Monsters have been placed so they can kill
themselves if you want, but if you're going
for a fast time, you can't afford that
luxury. There's more than enough ammo and
health, and three invulnerabilities. I
have changed the position of one because I
thought it got in the way in the original.
All multiplayer starts are there.
There are no skill levels.
There IS a really nasty ending, so don't think
you'll be able to rush to the exit like last
time. If you do, prepare to be exploded into
lost of little pieces.
Why get this WAD? : So you can see if you can beat my demo time
(about 18 minutes)
