There's a huge underwater area with a sunken ship.
There's also an oil well that blows up when you shoot
it or find the activation switch to detonate it.
after you take the ship over you must find the transportation
teleporter that takes you to BERMUDA.
-This level is very big and has a slow framerate.
You should have a fast computer while playing this level.

Description : CRUZSHIP: You go on to a cruzship and take it over.
There's a huge underwater area with a sunken ship.
There's also an oil well that blows up when you shoot
it or find the activation switch to detonate it.
after you take the ship over you must find the transportation
teleporter that takes you to BERMUDA.
-This level is very big and has a slow framerate.
You should have a fast computer while playing this level.
BERMUDA: Just like CRUZSHIP but you have to search the hotel
resorts and boats to find the access cards which will lead
you to Mt. Everest.
MT.CRASH: You start at the top of Mt. Everest and get to a place
Where you have to get access to go farther down the mountain.
You will then hear a plane crash wich you search and find a
hole off to the side which in turn leads you to a Budha temple
where you have to get the two other access cards. the access
cards will take you underwater and up to a transportation
center wich will take you to BLASTOFF.
BLASTOFF: The guy/s who made BLASTOFF is a genius. You have to play
this level to describe it. It's the best level in the whole world.
It keeps a continiuing pace with Huge Earthquakes and huge doors
that open the side of mountains. Near the end you end up in a huge
space station that you can pull a self destruct switch that blows
the space station up with about 500 (not kidding) explosions.
I made part of this. You can watch it blow up with the video
monitor. At the end you get in a life like space ship that takes
you to OUTER LIMITS.
-It's too cool and big to describe any more of it.
-The original one had pictures of Lee, David, George, and Mark in
the space station. I don't know if those guys made it or not.
OUTER LIMITS: I made the beginning of this level. I like the beginning
the most. You start off in the same space ship you ended BLASTOFF
with. The ship's all beat up and broken. you have to fall through
a crack in the floor in the space shuttle. You land in another
space station. You have to fight your way through and find the
cold arctic like hole with a hole leading into water which will
take you to SUB ERA X.
SUB ERA X: You start off in a broken submarine and you have to ditch
it. you eventually go to a transportation. tunnel which brings you
to an area with Egyptian-Aztec like temples and buildings. You
will go through underwater areas and tunnels and transportation
devices. You will end up a pretty big area with a pyramid where
You have a showdown with the boss.
