Reviews:

Memfis	Not very interesting because it's just linear progression from one small room to another with easy targets to kill. There are some kinda clever rooms and nice uses of triggers, plus the white+marble texturing has a certain surreal quality to it, but overall it made me a bit bored. Map02 is just a cute/silly bonus.	x
Doomkid	Visually pleasing, solid OS style map. Not boringly easy like most stuff from this era!	x
Anonymous	WOW COOL THIS IS TEH BEST	x
Anonymous	I was intrigued by the mention of a "Blue Ball room", but of course it's just an awkwardly referred to Soul Sphere. This is a decent if rather average map that mostly combines green marble with grey and ick cement, a slightly odd combination but the texturing is competent. Play is decent, though the slightly non-linear design means slightly confusing as well. The second map is a chessboard with a bunch of nasties on it, it's easy to get them to infight, and it feels like kind of an afterthought.	x

*** General Info ***

SPIRIT2.WAD for DOOM2 is an update of SPIRIT.WAD with some modifications 
and without additional graphic patches. 
I only used the original DOOM2 graphics to make WAD-editing easier and to 
keep the file as small as possible.

What's new in version 2 ?
        - better node building
        - no costum graphics in order to reduce file size and to make further
          editing easier
        - some rooms are a little bit larger
        - a secret passage takes you from the exit room back to the beginning
          so you can visit areas which you may have missed on the first run
        - if you have messed up the blue ball trick, which involves a barrel
          and a door, you can use the new passage to come back and pick up the
          blue ball anyway

MAP1 was primarily designed for Single Player mode; size and complexity are 
no good for Deathmatch.  
Par time is 15 min for MAP01 on skill level 4.

There is also a second level which is rather an experimental one, something 
to look at. You don't have to shoot anybody to finish this map.

*** Play Info ***

*** Hint ***

In the Blue Ball room of Map01 you have to move the barrel under the door so
you can come back. Use ONE pistol shot or non-berserk fist.

Spirit2 was designed for DOOM2 ver 1.666 but it should run with later 
versions as well.
Load this WAD with:   DOOM2 -file SPIRIT2.WAD -skill 4 -warp 01
    or for example:   DOOM2 -file wad\new\SPIRIT2.WAD -warp 02
