You stumped all the MapMods on this one and might want to consider a spoiler (in a day or so). I tried several different approaches...all with an equal lack of success. LOL!
An intriguing game.

Thank You for good words...
At least 5 players coped with the map, but it is interesting that even for еа3401 (my criterion of speed  :)) took so long time.
This game is more logical than a complex/difficult game.

There has been much progress since I posted my comment.
Actually, your words made me think of a different approach to use.
I'll try it later and am hopeful of figuring this out.

My score is a little bit better now, but still some seconds behind your.  :)

Truly I'm stumped.
I've had to come back to a map the next day, but I've never had this much trouble.
Spoiler
I've tried maxing everything out with various creative weapon locations as well as a very clever use of portals to get the drones to be killed away from the tunnel, but I still can't get the portal drone-moving trick to work. I can't think of anything else. I'd love to know. Your maps are the best ones out there.

How to get Top-Score... ;)
Spoiler
Just activate und deactivate the portals to get the drones moving in a endless circle. Launchers at the right will kill the creeper using the portal and once you got your beam, just kill everything ;)

my god, making drones dancing between two portals is the only way out!
took me a week to figure it out.

It is not needed to deactivate portal, its suitable to build with order of
portal
nullifier
portal
enemy
and have drones just jump past nullifier.
