MAP07: The Cube (The Abyss)

MAP07: The Cube is the seventh level of The Abyss. It was designed by Miklos de Rijk (H2SO4), features Dead Simple mechanics, and shares a similar layout. This level is technically a beginner's trap, since it cannot be completed unless the player knows the behavior of the rising square steps.
