it lasts. Keep an eye on it, because when it goes, you might go too.
Messages
Often, you'll find yourself
running over various items and strange objects. The game tells you what
you're picking up by printing a message on-screen.
Automap
To help find your way around
Doom 64, You're equipped with an Automap device. By pressing the Map Button,
your normal view is replaced with a top-down view of everything you've
seen to date. The orange arrow represents your position AND points in the
direction you're looking. Pay Attention! The game is NOT paused, so you're
still vulnerable to attack while viewing the Automap.
