EPILEPSY WARNING: PLAY AT YOUR OWN RISK

- EPILEPSY WARNING
DO NOT PLAY IF YOU ABHOR FLASHING LIGHTS OR LOTS OF PHYSICAL MOVEMENT!!!

In the first and third stages of this campaign, the beginning level is repeated. There is lots of red, green, and sometimes blue/purple flashing. It covers the ENTIRE screen. This effect doesn't stop until you're about halfway through the game.

There's several sequences with lots of electricity beams. In the second to last level, the winding corridor you see in the thumbnail appears twice. It spins around slowly, but the lights are big enough to temporarily blind someone.

The glowing lights that you see in the rooms are too bright sometimes. I understand they're for the purpose of an illuminated effect in darkness, but this campaign proves that it's too overbearing at times.

None of the first few comments had a warning about this, so going through this with my friends and I was visually overwhelming.

A similar campaign that I've avoided for this reason would be One 4 Nine. I'm sure many are familiar with the finale's epilepsy warning, causing a very generous modder to make a change to the campaign itself - removing that effect.

This entire campaign was fun to play through but this is something I wouldn't want to fully complete unless those effects are removed, or if there's another mod that changes it.

God, I just played through this campaign and this flashing effect was disgusting. I think the map creator wants to simulate the feeling of being sick and infected, but this thing is just terrible.
*pat pat* bro I honestly hope you didn't get hurt by this.
