Duke Nukem 3d atomic version, E3L4 L.A Rumble, by exp.
I played this game from 1995 to 2006, mainly in multiplayer. L.A Rumble (e3l4) is the “map” for the duel, I played thousands of games and I know it by heart.
Big Up to the players of Netstadium & DukesterX.

Duke Nukem 3D, Red Light District, by Alex Biffar.
Like the previous submission of level one, this is a mix of both the N64 version and PC version. Aside from small things like posters, the only real difference is the removal of the strip club and bar for the N64 version. They were replaced with a loading dock and restaurant respectively. Strangely they left in the “adult viewing” area though.
The map show the N64 version first and if you switch out the areas boxed in red you get the PC version.
Again, a blue/purple “S” indicates a secret area.
Duke Nukem 3D/64, Hollywood Holocaust, by Alex Biffar.
This is actually a mix of two different versions of the same game. Duke Nukem 3D (PC) and Duke Nukem 64 (N64). Some of the changes, such as taming down the movie posters and removing the strip club in the second level were likely Nintendo’s call, but some other ones I guess we’ll never know the reason.
The main differences in this map:
The secret area in the apartment is moved, the arcade is slightly shifted around, the bathroom is completely different (this map shows the N64 version), and the biggest change was adding an entire new area, the grocery store that is only reachable by a hidden teleporter at the end of the level.
Being one of my all-time favorite games, I really hope I didn’t miss any secret areas (indicated by the blue/purple “S”) since I never had a problem missing any when playing the game. I think I may have mixed up the hallway to the projector room and the bathroom, either that or it is different on the two different versions. For items, I tried to only map out important things and didn’t bother with ammunition or small health kits to keep down clutter. I also discovered, during this, that using MS paint takes about five times longer than just drawing it by hand. But it sure does look a lot cleaner. If only I had a tablet…

“Damn, those alien bastards are gonna pay for shooting up my ride”
A phrase I’ve heard an innumerable amount of times, from when I first booted it up back in Year 5 (I was a Duke fanboy, almost all of my other class mates were Quake fanboys, so many arguments were had!) to some 11 years later, relaxing after a days work. Playing through E01M01 for me isn’t so much a game, but a chance to retread very familiar turf and go through the motions to unwind.
My memory is certainly failing me on the scale of the room adjacent to the pipe bombs, but the rest of it isn’t too shabby. Might boot it up for another refresher courseĀ
Duke Nukem 3D, level 1, by Pete McPartlan.
My friend at school was the French teacher’s son and he often spent quite a bit of time hanging around after in the language department’s staff room. I’m not sure the staff even knew they had a modem (or what to do with it) but he did - and this afforded us many hours of free deathmatches at the expense of the tax payer.
I could probably do fairly accurate versions of the sounds vocally from memory too but I guess that’s for another tumblr.
