Description             : This is my third solo WAD. You'll notice my
                          addiction to balconies. This one has some
                          tricks to solve.
                          There are no exotic weapons or monsters.
                          It's moderately difficult - I can complete it on
                          U-V in about 6 minutes; Nightmare is fun!

Hints                   : The five doors puzzle isn't actually that
                          hard to solve, but it needs a technique,
                          not lots of running about (solution at the
                          end of this file).
                          You will need lots of health to complete
                          the "barrels corridor", even if it means
                          going back to get some.
                          Don't fall in the slime pit near the yellow key.

5 Doors solution:
The key to this puzzle is not to run, or even to turn. Don't let the
doors close behind you, trapping you in the room, because you won't
have enough time to open it again before the next door closes. Instead,
stand *under* the door, let it bounce of your head, walk in to operate
the next door, then back out and *sidestep* to the next door. Easy
when you know how!
