E1M1: Terminal (No End In Sight)

E1M1: Terminal is the first map of the 1994 Ways To Die episode of No End In Sight. It was designed by Emil Brundage (NaturalTvventy).

Essentials
Open the door in front of you, collect the shotgun by the fence (on I'm Too Young To Die (ITYTD) and Hey Not Too Rough (HNTR) skill levels) then turn left and follow the path past a zombieman until you reach a pair of steps next to a nukage pool. Turn right and walk past the nukage until you go through a doorway leading to a passage with a gray floor, then turn left and follow the passage all the way north until you reach a ledge with imps. Turn left or right and climb up a staircase to reach the ledge, then head north through a door and follow the passage to an exit door. Open the door, kill a waiting imp then flip the switch behind it to finish the level.

Other points of interest
When you go down the steps next to the nukage, turn left instead of right and climb the steps to reach an armor.

A shotgun can be found in the eastern-most room with zombiemen and one or more shotgun guys.

Secrets

 * 1) On the northern side of the nukage pool at the start, jump into the nukage on the right side and into the south-east corner. This corner hides a lift leading up to a chainsaw. (sector 45)
 * 2) A room east of the starting area has a zombieman guarding two armor bonuses and a stimpack. This room has a misaligned wall on the west side. Open this wall to reach a secret area holding more stimpacks and bonuses. (sector 19)
 * 3) In Secret #2, approaching the south-east corner causes the lift to lower. If you try to leave Secret #2 through the way you came in, you will have to press a switch to open the way back. This switch not only opens the way back, but also opens a wall at the top of the lift. You need to time it so that the lift lowers, then you press the switch, then run back to the lift to reach the new opening. When you manage to do that, take the next lift down into the outside area where you can get a backpack (and a chaingun on ITYTD and HNTR). (sector 150)
 * 4) Just before the exit door, open the misaligned wall to the right for two armor bonuses, a stimpack, shotgun shells and a clip. (sector 136)
 * 5) The wall between the two silver bars in Secret #3 can be lowered as a lift. Follow the health bonuses and drop down into a room with armor bonuses, where the walls in the previous room open up revealing more bonuses as well as imps. (sector 137)
