"danceswh.wad" is a DooM II wad made for single player and 
deathmatch.  It was tested in ZDoom, but it should be 
compatible with any port that lifts limits and supports mp3s. 
An earlier version was released in 2006, but this version has 
three new rooms, a great deal more architectural detail, much 
more balanced play.

*** Fair warning: It would be wise to conserve ammo through 
judicious use of the chainsaw and infighting, and through 
appropriate weapon choice.  Unless you like trying to take 
down a Barron with your fist, or a Cyberdemon with 
your chaingun. :) ***

The design is based on a description of a set of marble 
halls and a corridor in the classic fantasy book 
/Phantastes/, by George MacDonald.

The Too Young to Die difficulty setting is about as difficult 
as most wads are on Hurt Me Plenty.  It's insanely (but not 
hopelessly) difficult on Ultra Violence.  It plays quite 
differently each time; any little thing you do different can 
change everything thereafter pretty dramatically.

A couple of new sounds just for fun: a door opening sound, 
and switch open/close sounds.  New original mp3 music 
"Outpost 42" by David Finnamore, copyright 2012.

Three new colors of the green MARBLE1 Doom texture, and 
flats to match: black, white, and red.  One door borrowed 
from Valkiriforce's excellent Doom Core wad.
