- Title : RIKER11.WAD
- Author : Chris Richards
- Email Address : Chris-Richards@uiowa.edu
- Misc. Author Info : 6'3", 180 lbs.

- Description :
-
- Walk down the Corridor of Raw Meat, spend a night in the Disco of the
- Damned, scratch your head in the Pit of Choices, curse your fate while
- taming the Rodeo of Infinity. Every room was designed to have a
- different feel and challenge to it, with the overall emphasis placed on
- finding yourself in a position you wouldn't have expected just a few
- seconds earlier. For this reason, Riker11 is a much better solo or
- cooperative level than it is deathmatch, so I didn't include any
- deathmatch spots. Feel free to add some of your own if you want to.
-
- A good completion time, from The Zombie Shootout to The Apocalypse is
- about 20 minutes. The end-of-game screen says 30 seconds, but if anyone
- can do it in that I tip my hat to 'em.
-
- Some things you won't see: doors triggered in one place you have to run
- to before they close, Wolfenstein-type secret door placement, squiggly
- little hidden things you have to find before you can continue. I never
- liked these much. The path through Riker is clear and easy to follow,
- though hidden or off-the-path items can help you greatly.
-
- Several spots (one in particular) were designed to be low visability, so
- if they look too dark for you on your monitor and you have DOOM v 1.2 or
- greater, press the F11 key to modify the brightness.
-
- If the Disco of the Damned gets you down, there is a pair of infra-red
- goggles, though they're hidden in a pretty tricky place.
-
- Enjoy.
