2nd map. Yay, got round to finish this. Just like last map, this map was used to learn more about creating and playing creeper maps. This map was meant to be a simple map where the player chose to ethier turtle or rush with rewards given to both actions. Despite not having any sheilds, I learnt very late that it turns out you need to collect ALL tech to finish the map... *sigh* Just another facter to count for when making more maps then. Anyway please enjoy and leave any feedback. #NoCRPL #NoRunners
Self review:
The map ideal behind this I really enjoyed however I felt like the map didn't come out as I intended it to be. I feel like once you got a good defenses up, it was simply a matter of keep pushing your unit further along the track. No real challenge. The addition berthas you unlocked was something I did enjoy. The side islands I created were as I intended them to be and are the things I mostly liked about my map. Rewards could have been tone down a bit but it was a challenge (Mainly in earlier game) to get a foot hold on those islands. Even though I was aiming to make a relatively simple map, it was a little too simple in some parts.
Overall, I could have done better with the map terrain and the emitter strengths. This map felt a little to easy for me at some points. Also a better name would help as I not creative with names.
Hopefully my next map should be a better then this. Anyway, enjoy and please leave any feedback you got. Cheers :)
Side note: I got exams coming up, don't expect anything too soon.
It was a good fight up to the center Inhibitor... and then you run into the issue you've already discovered. You have to collect all tech. That makes cleanup a bit of a slog and drags out the ending longer than it needs to be.
Otherwise a good map!
