Description             : A speed mapping megawad made for the NaNoWADMo
			  challenge, said challenge is about to create
			  a full 32 maps megawad in a month (or 27 for
			  Doom and Heretic). That's my 2nd interation
			  with the project, the main idea is to create
			  a 16 maps with a restriction of 300 lines and
			  a icy / blue / plutonia-ish theme on it, this
		  	  is the humble result of my works. It also
			  includes 2 maps that broke the 300 lines limit
			  (the ending map + a bonus map for showing the
			  new DEHACKED monsters) and two 100 lines maps
			  as secret levels

Story			: You are a lonely space trucker with a dark
			  past left behind on Earth, now you work for
			  the chinese mining company of Yuan Zwuang,
			  some greedy people with some obscure
			  connections with the omnipresent UAC, an
			  american military and aeronautical
			  mega-corporation that now are working to
			  create some type of fastest way to travel
			  trough the various solar system planets.

			  You are working at the mining sectors in
			  Antarctica codenamed "Mercuria", in this
			  place they find some kind of new minerals
			  that will be perfect for creating a
			  stronger type of metal for the slipgate
			  structures, one day you was sleeping in
			  your truck and then you start hearing
			  screams and gunshots, then a eerie silence.

			  You waked up fast and took the gun looking
			  for see what the hell happened, discovering
			  that your nightmare is just begun...
