Ok, I cleared the map and placed last nullifier, but I don't see any way to power it

there is a very specific guppy glitch that hasnt been used in maps since it was discovered last year. pretty evil of you to use that, martin. pretty evil indeed.

i do love the guppy conga line at the beginning though, those are always fun.

If you mean the one that lets you stack a unit on top of the landed guppy, that one's actually been known for at least a few years now. I don't know of any prior maps that require it, though. If that's the intended solution here then I have to say that does indeed seem a bit morally ambiguous.

i only learned it from map #8591 "Guppy Glitch" that was out July 2020, but I admit I may be mistaken.

I personally first discovered the glitch and brought it up in the Discord a bit over 3 years ago. I'm not sure if it was really known prior to that, but it's been public knowledge for at least that long.

My original explanation of the glitch, in case anyone is curious how it works seems MG's responses seem to indicate that it's required to beat the map. Spoilered just in case someone wants to try to figure out the glitch themselves I guess lol

So we are *required* to use Schrödinger's Fish to complete this map?

OMG - I start to feel bad for having made this map. But I did pet a kitten today at work! (it's true)

So after you massacre all the kittens, how are you expected to get the forge

So, I'm almost afraid to ask if shooting kittens out of a potato gun is morally ambiguous or not... if it helps, I often shoot the kittens at lawyers and politicians who are standing at the edge of a cliff.

If that's "too evil" then perhaps I should mention that I mostly use Siamese kittens...?  :P

Thanks for the reminder of how this glitch works, Cornucanis!

Thanks for the map!  ;D
