Hints and Tips on play
----------------------

You'll find plenty of interesting features in this map. It is divided into 2 areas.

Paradise and Sheol. Paradise is so called because it is a lot harder to get killed up there.
The qualities of this area are such that you are continuously being regenerated which means
that you have to be killed by one devastating hit to be removed. 

Sheol is a place of terror and torment. Evil spirits watch you and torment you, deadly traps
are waiting to frag you too. There is a platform suspended above lava where you can find a 
shield belt but watch out that there isn't someone waiting to push a button and send you
to a hot grave. There is a U damage located at the back end of passage, but the passage is
protected by several deadly swinging blade pendulums!

Players always start in Sheol, but can reach paradise by finding the Jesus icons which transport
you upwards to paradise.


Additional Notes
----------------

The main purpose of this map is to express my desire to thank God for the life that I once lived.
I certainly would not be here now without Him.
Over the years I have drawn some strange pictures and as I came to know God the style and theme of
these pictuires changed a great deal. In the area called Sheol you'll see my paintings which
reflected the days when I was a particularly messed up person. The paintings in Paradise were
drawn after my conversion and tell a different story. The map itself is a metaphor demonstrating
that the only way to escape life's torment is to run to Jesus. Like all metaphors, it doesn't do
too well with close examination. In this map you can still be killed in Paradise !
