KCC-07 (Kajacx Creeper Clouds game). Not easy. New feature: target for friendly anti-creeper clouds now can be not only creeper emitters but also enemy evaporators. At the end of game not necessary to destroy friendly evaporators for winning game. For me sometimes game looks like cute CW3 ANIME where in battle between 2 teams of clouds participate player! :) #ThanksToKajacx #GoodLuck
At first perhaps better to play easy version of this game (map 6698).
I actually didn't find this one to be that hard. Just gotta let the anti-creeper fill up the allied evaporators and then they'll do a lot of the work for you, you know? Sure, it can get rough if enemy clouds bunch up, but on the other hand, you can really get going if you get some decent momentum.
The best of the series so far :)
Thanks Yum

That was a great map sir, quite enjoyed it
"Too exponential" - the amount of creeper being generated increases with the amount of creeper already there, so you have a self-reinforcing cycle that can quickly overwhelm the player.
The same goes for AC, of course.
So once the player gets past the tipping point, it will become easier (exponentially so), and the game essentially auto-playing to completion once you're past 50% area coverage.
You can reduce the self-reinforcing nature.
E.g. by letting clouds start raining only once they start approaching their target (i.e. clouds that are far away from the front don't reinforce their own generator but do useful work - or are shot down, in the case of creeper clouds).

Very reasonable comment. Thanks!
Problem that ScriptMaker Kajacx have no mood to continue... :-[
