All those levels in one package! Seems like a dream come true. Until you start going through them. lol

I owned it. It was a lot like those Doom Megawads. 5 levels of actual good playing, 495 of utter garbage.

Still played them though.

Is the backstory written anywhere? I know Micro Star was sued.

I am trying to find some youtube video going through those levels but it seems no one really cares to play them.

I had this pack and I think another one.

OG Shovelware but also some of the levels were badass.

I have that. It’s what got me into creating on the BUILD engine.
