Definitely the toughest map I have yet completed. You really need to know this map like the back of your hand.

Nice to see you went for this tough challenge anyway! This is indeed a map that will require a few attempts, but I think the rather short playing time allows for that. |

My problem, I realized was that I was building to many connectors before going over the next hurdle.  To the end you want to move as fast as possible. |

Yeah, you'll lose any collectors after about 2 minutes anyway, so build as few of them as possible. Only the collectors at the top of the hurdles will be safe. |

Nope, this map is a real puzzle, so I won't give more clues than I've already given. |

If I remember correctly, all the top parts in front of each hurdle, by the end get filled with Creeper. And you only get a set number of blasters. Maybe flying the city? I might have to look at this map again. I do not know what is more impressive, beating this map in eight minutes, or eighteen.  |

Exactly! Even when you keep Odin City flying you won't ever be able to keep all totems connected. I figure Talbot used his last blaster to cap the 2 emitters of the last section and managed to fight his way up with only two of them. Or even more likely: he actually finished and used 2 blasters to cap the emitters at the bottom of the last section and the last one stayed on top of the hurdle. I should try myself to see if that would work....

Hmm... only 7 scores for 357 downloads as of today. Got to be one of the toughest maps out there. Lost count of the number of times I had it in the bag, only to be beaten at the finish line by Mr. Creeper. Seems like 9 min is the time before which you must activate the totems, although Talbot seems to have proven otherwise. Finishing with his time is probably harder than finishing <9min as pointed out by others . Awesome map - well thought out design - 5/5.  |

You could be right. Lost count of the number of times I had it in the bag, only to be beaten at the finish line by Mr. Creeper. Seems like 9 min is the time before which you must activate the totems, although Talbot seems to have proven otherwise. Finishing with his time is probably harder than finishing <9min as pointed out by others . Yeah, I'm still puzzled by that. Unfortunately Talbot doesn't seem to have a forum account and is maybe not even reading the comments.  Awesome map - well thought out design - 5/5. Thanks! |

Is there a way to connect the four blasters which are located on the map's corners ? I just miss 1 or 2 blaster to complete this map... I think that I see how to complete this but the 4 blasters I can have are just not enough But great map ! All of yours by the way. |
