Comparison of versions
Numerous changes exist in the level as compared to its PC version:

Geometry simplification

 * The lit square in the blue key room was replaced with a switch.
 * The design of the lowering platform in the "swastika room" has been simplified.
 * The maze behind the blue door:
 * a south portion which had a barrel, a medikit and an imp on HMP and Ultra-Violence skills was sealed by a brick wall.
 * a dead end with two health bonuses to the right of end of the maze was erased along with the potions.
 * two barrels (one in the south and the second in the next-to-last dead end) were removed leaving only one.

New design
Some rooms in the level were redesigned:


 * Room to the west of nukage river was slightly redesigned: the switch for activating the lift is on the west wall, instead of being on the north wall segment, and has been added a medikit and three rockets.
 * Central room with four entrances into the blue key room is open to the sky.
 * The blue key room is opened by using a switch, instead of walking into a lit square (which was deleted; see above).

 * The computer room in the east of the map has been removed and replaced by a 4-way junction.
