The Underground Rats

The Underground Rats is a vanilla slaughter map for Doom II, which was designed by Alexis Jeanson (Roofi) and released in February 2021. According to him, its design drew inspiration from the maps of Hell Revealed II. Aside from a custom sky by Brett Harrell (Mechadon), as well as a set of waterfall patches, it exclusively uses stock textures / flats. Finally, it utilises a MIDI piece by Petter Mårtensen (alias Thyrbse): "The Creeps."
