Story

Something went wrong at an UAC office building, and Doomguy is sent to investigate, starting from the top of the skyscraper and getting to the bottom of the story. While doing so, he is often interrupted by nagging phone calls from his mother, which advance the plot humorously: accessing the secret levels, for example, is explained in-story as going back to the roof to get a better reception.

Content

Trivia

  • Running from the Jazz Robots, the music used in MAP04 and MAP15, is also used in Cyriak's "Chimpnology" animation.
