Downloaded and played (very quickly due to lack of time). I'll give more feedback after playing again with more time.
First comments.
Visually this is good but the 2 drilling machines (they look good) how did they get there - there should be a passage from somewhere for those machines to be brought in there first (even if they were broght in piece by piece and assembled there).
The flamethrower : the hitpoint is not exactly where the aim is (the crosshairs) and with the pupae this is a problem, not with the brute. Also the spread of the flame doesn't look convincing at the end (the sheet is very visible). (I know you didn't make this but perhaps there are some settings which could be adjusted).
Gameplay is acceptable but I can't say much about it because it's too short.
Concerning the shortness, There is a message stating Lava , Heat is good ... that made me think thta there was a way out of the area, even picking up tarydium shards from the lava pool, but I died (I didn't find any heat suit).
I looked in UNreal ED and saw the other area and it seems there is a connection between the areas, but in playing I couldn't find any connection, not even when ghosting.
The aim is to kill the warlord?? I didn't find any Warlord, not even with ghosting.
Overall, for gameplay the flamethrower didn't suit the area (in a small area the heat produced and the oxygen used + gasses released would cause problems. I think the flamethrower would be of better use in an outside area or in large caverns.
The earliest I can play again will be Monday evening (leaving the country tomorrow morning).
Again, Visually the area looks quite good but there is so much lava that It would be impossible for humans to survive long enough to work there without heatsuits.
