Description             : Lost Luxury is a 10-map hub designed for Vanilla
                          Hexen. 5 maps are interconnected, 2 are for the
                          finale, and 3 are secret!
                          While I originally started this for NaNoWADMo 2020,
                          I didn't exactly finish on time, and ended up
                          taking a whole lot longer.
                          
                          Difficulty settings do matter here! If playing on
                          the two hardest settings, you may only obtain your
                          final weapon by getting the pieces from the 3
                          (obtuse) secret maps! On lower difficulties you can
                          also find them in vaguely hidden areas. Monster
                          amounts are also adjusted. Skill 5 is untested but
                          combat isn't too extreme most of the time, so it's
                          probably possible to beat.
                          
                          The story goes something like this:
                          There's been recent worried talks of a large,
                          flying wheel being seen in the skies. Some have
                          reported it raining down death from above, and that
                          it seems to always leave towards one particular
                          abandoned locale. Said locale used to be a
                          luxurious resort, but most who have checked in on
                          what happened since haven't returned. Some believe
                          it now belongs to a group known as the Hextuple
                          Heresiarchs, a powerful group of dark magicians.
                          Against your own better judgement, you too decide
                          to see what's happening there.
                          
                          Traveling there by boat, as you hit the foggy shore
                          you only hear the winds and waves. But that might
                          not be for long...

Known Bugs              : There's chances of sprite overflows in particular
                          areas when there's many wendigoes, but it should
                          hopefully only happen on hard difficulties.
                          
                          Also, when playing in GZDoom, the foggy library
                          looks wrong when playing in a renderer other than
                          the software one.
