Name: "Alfonzo Writes, Directs and Stars In His Own Television Show in the 1980s" or "Saint Alfonzo's Darkbase"
Map Format: UDMF
Ports Tested: GZDoom 4.5.0+ only.
Build Time: 8 days, plus change.
Requirements: Jumping allowed/encouraged but not required. Crouch disabled. Freelook allowed.


Difficulties:
There is no difficulty balancing in this map, and so the skill menu is skipped on New Game.
Playing on one of the easy difficulties (ITYTD or HNTR) with -skill grants access to a debug room.


Inspiration:
In case it's not already immediately clear, this map is a parody of Garth Marenghi's Darkplace.

Lots of the humor contained herein is based entirely on the show, which was set in the 80s,
and presented in an overtly hammy and farcical fashion - low budget, bad writing, poor acting, the works.

There are also plenty of subtler jokes scattered throughout the map specifically to please Tarnsman,
who held a mapping contest celebrating ten years of his tenure in the Doom community, and for which this
map was made specially.

So if you find it hard understand ANY of what's going on here, that's absolutely fine. :)

I do recommend watching Darkplace though, either way.
Helps to have watched all six episodes, but only the first three are referenced directly in the storyline of this map.
