Thanks, very interesting puzzle. Some decisions do not lie on the surface.

Agreed. I was happy to find the hidden treasure on my first try. Too bad that it takes a lot of pausing and going painfully slowly to aim the primary weapon at your targets for the perfect splash. That's all I'm sayin'.  8)

Thanks for a unique and not-too-annoying puzzle map! Great job!  ;D ;D

Second run shaved off nearly a minute  ;D

I suspect Alter Old is actually Barry Allen, otherwise known as "The Flash" and therefore any attempt to catch him is like Ren & Stimpy trying to defeat the Borg. Resistance is futile and stuff like that.

Thx m8. I can do ok at single-task objectives.  Even thinking about coming close to your times on big maps makes me laugh like a hyena on hallucinogens. Fantastic times on those, btw. ;D

Alter is unquestionably better than me (and most likely everyone else, lol) at fine-tuning the efficiency of this game. I did 4-5 runs of this and after my last one I figured I could maybe shave off a couple seconds - maybe - if I spent another 20 minutes being meticulous. I have no idea how Alter is so precise so quickly. Even after reading his amazing detailed methodology I'm at a loss... maybe he IS the Command Node!  :o
