MAP05: Phrenetic Chainsaw Slaughter of a Crippled Infant (32in24-5)

MAP05: Phrenetic Chainsaw Slaughter of a Crippled Infant [sic] is the fifth map of 32in24-5, a deathmatch megawad. It was designed by Tango, detailed by Mike Brincka (brinks), and uses the music track "Jungle Battle," originally composed by Kazuki Muraoka for  and sequenced to MIDI by Gecko Yamori.

It was the thirty-fifth and final map to be submitted to the project, with Tango posting it in the project's three minutes after the 24-hour mark had passed. Despite the cheerful title of the map, it does not actually contain any chainsaws.

Map layout
This map features quite a compact layout, with multiple areas despite a small overall map size. The map features a techbase covering the southern, eastern and northern sides, with a small exit in the south-west of the building to a small cave that covers the west side, and an outdoor segment in the centre. A small extension to the building can be accessed from some stairs in the south-west of the outdoor area and running across the gap to a platform holding a green armor. In the south-east corner of this balcony is a small pit with a teleporter that leads to a ledge in the building along the south edge of the map, where the exit switch is located. Another teleporter on the opposite (eastern) side of this ledge connects to the other end of the building, in the north of the map. Although both teleporters are two-way, there is nothing in the pit that the western teleporter connects to, so using it this way is somewhat redundant.

In the north part of the building, close to the teleporter, is a rocket launcher, with two rocket boxes. Another rocket launcher and two boxes can be found in the south-west corner of the map. The southern connection from the building to the central area contains a chaingun and two boxes of bullets. A shotgun can also be found in the cave to the west of the map.

 * 6) In the south-west corner of the map, facing north-east. Close to the rocket launcher, but is facing away from it, and spawn #7 is significantly closer. (thing 10)

 * 8) On the ledge with the exit switch in the south of the map, facing north. The teleporter to the right allows immediate access to the north of the map. (thing 12)
 * 9) On the ground just in front of the ledge where spawn #8 is located, facing north-west. (thing 13)

 * 11) On a platform in the south-east corner of the map, facing north-west. (thing 15)
