Great to see you are still going strong Martin!!!
As One of the most intelligent and prolific puzzle map producers Martin... You can do it...............
Tapping just the "N" Key works... Because the map always starts in PAUSE...
And tapping that "N" Key just advances the map game time by something like 1/30 of a map time second...
And NUTCRACKER in all his glorious wisdom also allows everyone... including old geezers like me... to layout everything before dropping the Command Ships and starting the game timer BY TAPPING and holding down that "N" key...
BUT
Yes Martin... there is always a BUT...
There is one problem with tapping that "N" Key...
One minute of game time takes me a full hour or so of my life time... which at 83 is getting [Hopefully] just a little bit shorter every day...
SO
Do the math... Your real life time invested in the map likely beat the real life time I invested in setting up and playing that map...

Last post by Johnny Haywire - February 23, 2026, 11:55:04 PMPerhaps the single best implementation of spore spam I've ever seen. It can be overwhelming, but it's also very well-timed and not chaotic.
You can totally turtle this, btw. But you might have to do a lot of beam tower juggling.
Almost had to restart, but managed to save it. And then I actually clicked "save" and saved it. Smartly done, m8!
Not a big fan of pickups though. Too many unnecessary little tidbits just make for more clutter. The little packets of 5 aether are big in the beginning, but later on they're just in the way.
Having said that, this was a brilliantly designed map of epic proportions. Difficult, but not crazy - maybe an 8/10 difficulty (?). Definitely a 2 exclamation-point map!
Thanks for the map!! =)

Last post by BigBertha - February 23, 2026, 11:09:41 AMBrewster's Millions is about a guy who gets to inherit $300 million USD, but only if he can spend $30 million in a month. At the end of that month he can't own anything, no houses, cars, investments, etc; just the clothes he's wearing. He can't give it away or gamble it or anything like that, he just has to find ways of spending it.
I was trying to incorperate that idea with the 20,000 energy crystal at the end. I figure that most people will have some good energy infrastructure by then, so using it may be a bit of a challenge. I didn't want to make it some crazy amount though, since that would just be more annoying than fun.
Anyway, good idea with the multiple CN's! I just used the one as I had originally laid out, but that's a unique and inventive way of solving this one.
Glad you enjoyed, and I hope everyone else does too!
