Easy overall with a short, fun little catch towards the end. The title is your hint! Let me know in the forum if you get it.

Dude, you continue to impress! Excellent map!

Sorry I didn't get the Brewster's Millions reference. Never saw the movie, but I might look it up now.

I hate to admit it, but I was struggling with this map and had to restart a few times to get the sequence just right. When I finally figured it out and restarted for the third time, I realized something helpful...

If you land all 3 CN's, it's a lot easier than trying to manage with just one. (Facepalm) Yeah, I'd assumed we only had the 1 CN to work with and didn't bother to check.

I like the option to go the long way or just take the shortcut. Great job!

Thanks for the map! =)

Brewster'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!
