Note: The map has some see-through walls in OpenGL mode, so I'd recommend software mode to play it back - reduce your resolution if it gets "choppy" (800 x 600 was nice and smooth on my system).

Description: I was happy to get this one under ten minutes. It's a long long run, and there are a lot of things you have to do - I don't know of any shortcuts. My health hits 3 near the end. I take some wrong turnings, but only one that doesn't have any benefits (extra ammo; clearing a path for later, etc.) and is a clear waste of time. Obviously there are plenty of little ways (besides not taking wrong turnings) to make the run quicker (e.g., in my previous run {10:23}  I picked up the berserk pack in a faster way, but it involved a subsequent jump that was very risky), but executing them all without mishap and keeping the health >0 is not easy. BTW, there is no need to release the "real" cybie at the end - I just did it out of inertia, I suppose.
