S.;-) Widlake was right: the old time (8:25??) *was* WAY
too slow. This is better, but somebody with better hands
and a smoother machine (and a bit of luck) could knock
5-10 sec. off this one. It only took me a day to cut my
time from about 10 min. to this - 2:47; so I'm sure it
can and will be bettered soon.
Honestly, the hardest part of this was going around the
first two corners: my machine, allegedly a 486/66 (4megs)
is SO jerky that I had to make this playing at Low Detail
and the screen at half size.
Suggestion: I think you need to run across the bridge at
the start to deflect the arachnotron from the front door
of the gatehouse. If so, you could try saving time by
opening the door to The Citadel when you first cross the
bridge: this might draw the cacodemon and two lost souls
out, and avoid spending time killing them.
