MAp #8515 from yum234
Well, on this version I actually got the use of the bomb factory--but no reason to use it. When the zone counted down to zero I was closing in on the last emitters anyway, the only one I could have hit was the big one in the SE corner but it was going to fall with no action on my part anyway. I still had to wait for it to fill to get that last emitter next to it.
I used the bomb to get rid of the exploding emitters, to prevent the upgrading emitter from respawning.
I had see that it would respawn with a ton of lifes and take quite a while to be taken down for good, so it seemed worth the effort.
What was harder about this one? I remember doing the original and realizing that the start is a bit tricky, and that's the case with this one as well... but I don't know that it seemed more difficult. Maybe it was, I dunno.
Maybe remove the bomb factory? I didn't use it, and it looked like (at a quick glance, anyway) that it would be more trouble than it's worth to take it early on.
In any case, it's definitely an enjoyable map! Thanks for re-making it and tweaking whatever you tweaked. ;D
