A very exciting slaught-like map. The are several difficulties in reaching a good time here, starting from the high monster spawn, how easy is to be caged in first part (30-40% of runs of mine failed after picking up the bluekey), and the fact monsters are firing everywhere due to infighting, and from all the sides. PEs can be no problem or total mess, but as long as you pass through first key and return to the outside area, it's important to snipe down all the enemies from the cliffs, while not forgetting to dodge the-supposed-to-be rockets direction and the revenants hooming ones. This is pretty fine, but can still be improve; such map could be TAS-ed down to 3mins after all. I could have used more freely the cells in first part, but sometimes the enemies are better packed or the cybs requires more hits. My previous time of 06:38 was improved by Ancalagon to 05:53 the current DSDA record.
Just out of curiosity, I used idmus14 for this run, map28 has no music. I find the music (or map 17's) suits pretty well here.

I actually wanted to upload 2 more demos of cchest 2 which I reviewed months ago, but I found out I can still improve them quite much (at least optimistically-talking...), so I'll delay that and pass to scythe x before I guess.
