Lunatic Fringe is the second secret level of Lunar Apocalypse in Duke Nukem 3D. It can be reached via the secret exit on Dark Side.

Description

Similar to High Times later in the game, this level exploits the unusual architecture of the Build engine to create the illusion of a non-Euclidean, 720-degree circle. Walking a full 360 degrees around the circular fringe on this level does not return the player to the starting location but instead to a totally different location. The level's name, which it shares with a Red Rider song, is a reference to this crazy-making mechanic.

It is possible to break the illusion by peaking through the window right beside the button in the central compartment. Although walking through the opening to the right of the button leads to one part of the outer fringe, the window to the left of the button leads directly to a completely different part of the outer fringe with the exit button.

Secrets

There are no secrets on this level.
