I've thought for a while if this should be approved, and ended up playing this myself to take a look. Ultimately I decided to leave it to the community to judge. Personally, I can say that it's not Grezzo (despite featuring a poster with Grezzo at the very beginning, which I'm not a fan of); it's not trying to be grossly offensive at every turn, and I've not found any sexual content in it. The, uh, humor is not my cup of tea, but it is what it is.
On the technical side, the level design is reasonably competent, if at time simplistic. Not a fan of progressively annoying platforming, even though there's not a lot of it (people should really just stop trying to implement platforming unless they implement a custom movement system to go with it that works around vanilla Doom friction). I'd also recommend that the author builds a proper PK3 that incorporates everything, instead of uploading a loose collection of files for players to deal with. There's no need whatsoever to have a bunch of things in WADs, while others in PK3s. Maps can and should be properly packaged inside a PK3 (in the /maps/ folder). No WADs should be put at the root of a PK3. The how-to is documented in detail on the this wiki page. Also, weapons should give full magazines on pickup, and the HUD can and should be made to work on all resolutions (forcescaled is a thing), even though, as is, it can be scaled to work.
Other than that, like I said, let the others be the judge.
