Description:	Welcome to HyperSpeed - A brand new megawad for doom 2, where each level is a remake of the corresponding vanilla level, except with a simple new twist - the exit door permanently closes after 30 seconds. If you didn't reach it in time - tough luck, try again. Due to the harsh time limit, all the levels are extremely compact with a large focus on speedrunning, demanding good movement if you want to beat the wad on higher difficulties (no shame in lowering it, though), and occasionally requiring executing proper speedrun strats like grabs or SR50. The megawad includes the full 32 maps, and also 3 extra ones - MAP33 is the one used for the title screen, MAP34 is an earlier version of MAP21 that was scrapped due to low quality, and MAP35 - an earlier version of MAP24 with a radically different ending. This wad also includes a number of QoL features, designed to make speedrunning easier, such as: A palette overhaul, designed to make it easier to see when taking damage, invulnerable, picking up an item or protected by a rad suit; A new plasma rifle sound that is much quieter - important because you'll be using the thing a lot.

Base:	New from scratch
Build time:	20.09.22 - 07.05.23
Editor(s) used:	UDB for mapping; SLADE3 for WAD editing; Adobe Photoshop for graphics; Audacity for audio tweaks; InkWorks for palette & colormap editing.
Bugs:	In GZDoom, MAP11 cannot be beaten without jumping. Fixing this would require large changes to the entire map, plus the wad is designed for vanilla-compatible ports anyway.
