[ Level construction ] ----------------------------------------------

  Infinity is the third part of the Serenity series.  I like to say,
it is better than the others.  Though all levels are 'looking' quite
the  same.  Often the  'brown-metal' style  was used.  Almost  every
level has good key-placement and construction.  Alternately designed
places: hallways,  waste places, ups & down,  lifts, some labyrinths
computer-rooms and a few nice traps. Excellent light usage,  such as
cones  of light  and  darker  areas.  Often  the  levels  are partly
symmetricaly constructed. Great for Multiplayer-Games.

[ Texture design ] --------------------------------------------------

  Most textures are well placed and aligned, but (wall)-lights are
often misaligned.

[ Bugs ] ------------------------------------------------------------

  No Tuttie-Frutti,  Medusa or HOM effects.  A few HOMs  only if you
use a Doom version below 1.666 - info from the authors.

[ Enemies ] ---------------------------------------------------------

  Played in UV only.  Good playable,  sometimes a bit easy.  Lots of
Shotgun Guys,  Imps  and Pigs.  Only a  few Cacos  and Barons.  Well
placed; in almost every level  you will use the Shotgun at all,  you
really need no Rocket Launcher or the Plasma Gun.

[ Things ] ----------------------------------------------------------

  Good amount  of ammo  and health,  well placed too.  Good usage of
'other' things, such as barrels, dead bodies etc.

[ Scoring ] ---------------------------------------------------------

  90%

  Really  worth  downloading.  A  bit  more  variety,  better  light
alignment and more monsters would take the last 10%. Don't miss that
one anyway!
