MAP17: Compound (The Plutonia Experiment)

MAP17: Compound is the seventeenth map of Plutonia. The music is "At Doom's Gate", which is the same as for the very first level of the Doom series, E1M1: Hangar.



Secrets

 * 1) At the center of the level is a thin roughly "#"-shaped walkway in a pool of nukage. In the northeast corner of the nukage pool, beneath a triangular outcropping of the wall, is a fake wall you can walk right through to get some hidden health bonuses.
 * 2) After getting the red skull key, a wall behind you will open, revealing some enemies. One of the walls in the back of this newly revealed area can be opened, leading to a hidden radiation suit and a teleporter to a secret area.

Routes and tricks
Upon acquiring the rocket launcher (or if you already have one,) you can perform a death slide in the exit room by killing yourself with a rocket while running backwards toward one of the yellow skull bars, causing you to pass underneath them and onto the teleporter, ending the level. This was first demonstrated in Vincent Catalaá's 00:09 NM speed run of this level.

Trivia

 * This is the only level in the Plutonia Experiment (aside from Hunted since it is exclusively filled with Arch-viles) to not include any Revenants.
