Excellent fun!
I got off to a very bad start, but eventually figured out a tactic that worked.
Will have to give it another go.
Thanks,
H

Two trips around the mountain on this one.  Well done!

Helper, did you used the beams?

Great map, especially given that this was your first. High replayability. I look forward to more maps from you in the future!

Yes on the Beams. I would move a couple of 'loaded' Beams to the outer islands to take on the Spores, then swap between shots. That part worked OK.
My mistake was attacking the big upper island, instead of a different approach.
I normally avoid 'limited' asset games, but this one had plenty of everything you need.
Thanks,
H

Yeah, it goes much faster if you go east first.  I didn't realize I could reach the east without going through the aether island until I had cleared it.
