Anyone want to share the secret of below 2:00 times? I just don't see it. There's just too much digging, too powerful of emitters and, too little starting energy.

What am I missing? ;(

The moderator says he will play again now that he's "figured it out."  What is there to figure out?  I struggled to get a 26 minute time after multiple attempts.  How are people getting such quick times?  How do I take advantage of the anti-creeper present?  Thanks in advance!

a) if people want to "cheat" on times... more power to them. I just enjoy playing :)
b) The secret to a 11 min time on this one for me (which took me a bit to figure out) was to let the creeper escape up top and attack from below. Then I only had to defend 4 shields up top with 4 repulsers and a few launchers. You'll notice the creeper flows upward so attacking from below is easier and allows you time to build up energy and tech before finishing off the left side from the bottom up.
