Behemoth is a single-level PWAD for Doom II and a Boom compatible source port that was initially released in May 2017, culminating in an idgames archive upload in March 2018. It was designed by Alex Scott (Scotty) and uses the music track "Outer Darkness" composed by John Weekley (PRIMEVAL). The PWAD also includes a small outro level, MAP02: Belly of the Beast.

Secrets[edit]
- In the first courtyard you come to, go to the temple entrance to the south and use the wall with skulls to lower it. This is a secret passage with a box of shotgun shells, a medikit, and a light amplification visor. (sector 88)
- In the super shotgun trap area, the switch here will lower the lift back up, but also reveal another switch behind it. Wait about one second before pressing that switch, then press it, run to the lift, take it up, and head east and into the first courtyard. Quickly run northwest to the lift that has a berserk pack. (sector 123)
- In the room at the south end, go to the east side, face west, and shoot the eyes to reveal a teleporter behind you. This takes you to a rocket launcher, rockets, health bonuses, and armor bonuses. (sector 190)
- Go to the lift at the north end with the bleeding skulls and use the skull switch to lower it. As soon as you press the switch, run up the south steps and run east past the long window to an opening to the south, allowing you to head behind the window. This secret area has a box of rockets, an energy cell pack, and a soul sphere. (sector 272)
- At the east temple, use the bloody altar and run northeast or southeast to two lowered lifts, which take you up to ammo and armor bonuses. (sector 858)
- Near the center of the map is a soul sphere on a high pillar. To get it, open the door west of it, then head south to the lift to trigger it. When it lowers, quickly enter the north room and immediately use the diamond switch to the east, then run to the lift and take it up. In front of you is a switch. Flip it before it closes, then run east and into the hole to the east to find a switch. This will lower the soul sphere. (sector 1181)
- At the westernmost end, head to the large skull switch, go behind it, and drop down. Use the large face with blood coming out of its eyes and you will teleport to a switch that lowers the red key. (sector 2316)
