Game: Quake

Single Player: Yes!
               85 Baddies on Hard and Nightmare
               85 for Normal - Only a few were downgraded from Hard
               85 Grunts in Easy - Run and gun fun to blow off steam
Coop:          No, but if I get requests I'll compile a version with
               coop starts.
Deathmatch:    No, the layout doesn't suit DM.

Description: Fall Cleaning is a 4 story Victorian style house and yard
             filled with Quake enemies. It is a mid-size map produced
             for Tronyn's Halloween Haunted House mapping exercise.
             
             This level is best played with a good PC and graphics card
             but is tolerable in most areas on slower PCs (Pentium 2's)
             with some sort of 3D acceleration.

The Story: Halloween is only a couple days away and the Mayor of the town
           has approached you - the Neighborhood Watch Captain - with his
           concerns about a particular property that may pose a risk to
           Trick-or-Treaters and their parents. Seems as if complaints
           about the stench of rotted flesh and growls mixed with the
           snapping of bones from sacrificed creatures points to a Satanic
           menace that even the police are reluctant to pursue.

           Being the good community-safety minded sort that you are and
           having been through the bases, castles and runic dungeons of
           Quake's world before, you figure a simple house can't hide much.
           No sense weighing yourself down with an excess of weapons, you
           just grab your Cooey .410 and prepare to investigate.

           It's getting dark and you go through the front gates. Seems
           awfully quiet. Hmmm... No one around. Perhaps you should see if
           someone left any doors unlocked...

How to Play: Unzip the files into your \Quake\id1\maps folder. Create it
             if it doesn't exist. Use your favorite Quake engine and force
             it to use more memory if needed. Hit the ~ key to bring down
             the command console and type skill 0 (Easy) or skill 2 (Hard).
             You can skip the skill command if you wish to play Normal.
             Bring down the console with the ~ key and type 'map HHouse'.

Comments and Hints: Kill everything in sight and if you seem to be stuck,
                    just keep looking high and low for enemies. Bloodshed
                    opens doors in this map. Pick up all new weapons too.

                    There is enough ammo and health. Just don't get too
                    sloppy and don't grab supplies unless you can carry
                    most or all of what's in the crate.

                    I did all the testing on this map due to time constraints
                    only and not for a lack of capable and willing players.
                    Easy, Normal and Hard were all completed with 100% kills
                    and without cheats or the use of the one secret. FitzQuake
                    is my engine of choice (Version 0.70).

Editors Used: Worldcraft V1.6

Wads Used: Quake 101, Ogro, Knave, HeXeN 2

Known Bugs/Problems: I know of a couple minor nits that I won't reveal
                     in case you don't notice.

Distrans: For being my Mapping buddy and for helpful comments. I know
          he would do a far better texture selection and application
          job then I did. He also made good suggestions that I didn't have
          time to implement. Back to QToo for me.

       but instead, I'll dedicate this entire condemned structure to her.
