I drew this and then realised it reminds me of something, just can't put my finger on it... This map is a challenge to myself - build a map that everyone can play but is still fun. Keep an eye on the spores on the stars, or Deathstars as I know them, the ones in the bottom left are an immediate danger, the top ones have a decent delay.

Most fun game in a while. Something for every kind of player and a little bit of pucker factor trying to get that final Spore Tower before it launches.
Nicely done.

Excellent vanilla map.  I really enjoyed this one and will play it again for a better time.

10/10 

You don't have to start perfectly or get overrun.
Not hard but you can't let the creeper get the upper hand.
Can be played for speed.

Not only one of the most beautiful maps in CS but also delightfully fun to play. A rare 10/10.

'Who does this d0m0nik chap think he is with all these opinions on maps when he has never succeed to post a single time!'

I should really just change the dp, its a mixture of habit and laziness!

People will figure it out eventually. And yanno, the more I look at this map the cooler it gets. It's like the perfect blend of artistry and engineering... like sour cream and onion on a chip. You da man, regardless what name you wanna go by or what letters you replace with numbers.

Need a trailer that might be well-built or might just fall apart?

We may not know your name, but we know your MAPS!  :D

Millennium Falcon to the rescue.

Incredibly useful Bertha--I got it while the final nullifier was charging.

I destroyed everything on the map, sat around for a couple of minutes and it still isn't finishing.... made sure there wasn't any spot a nullifier could have an effect... anyone know what's going on?

Thank you Yum, glad you enjoyed it. The idea for the graphics was very slightly borrowed  from some old film or other ;)

This is most likely the absolute best vanilla map I've played. I could elaborate a little... but, no - in this case I really think I'll let the map speak for itself.

Such. A. Cool. Map.
