right side of your status bar. Also, when you find a weapon that you already possess, don't scorn
it! Picking it up also gives you ammo.
Dangerous ULTIMATE DOOM Environment
Some parts of the ULTIMATE DOOM environment can be more dangerous than the monsters
you'll face. Areas containing exploding barrels, radioactive waste, or crushing ceilings should be
approached with caution.
EXPLODING BARRELS: Scattered around the base are drums containing fuel, toxic
waste, or some other volatile substance. If your shots hit one of these barrels, it's
kablooey time! It might take several bullets to set off a barrel, but a single blast of any of
the other weapons usually does the trick.
TIP: Barrels can often be the most devastating weapon in your arsenal
delivering a body-
blasting explosion to all nearby purgatory pedestrians. Wait until several evil guys get next to a
barrel and blast away at the can, then watch 'em all go boom!
SLIME AND OTHER RADIOACTIVE WASTE: Many of the areas in ULTIMATE
DOOM contain pools of dangerous liquids that will damage you if you walk through
them. There are several varieties of waste, each doing an increasing amount of
damage. If it looks fluid, beware!
CRUSHING CEILINGS: Some of the ceilings in ULTIMATE DOOM can smash you, making you
cry blood. Often you'll be able to see the ceiling moving before you go under it, but not always. Be
careful and Save often!

man at least, to a degree.
Medikits include bandages, antitoxins, and other medical supplies to make you feel a
