The creeper made an unexpected appearance at an excavation site. Help them reclaim the land from the humans. This is an easy, entry-level PAC map. Enjoy! #PlayAsCreeper

"Easy"...yes.  Fun...yes as well. :)  Nice job.  Only problem I had was some pretty substantial lagging.  I don't usually have that as an issue but there was quite a bit on the map early on (until I destroyed it all).

Same for me. I never had lag even on 256x256 PAC map before.

But that doesn't change that it is a good map for beginners.

yeah was pretty laggy, i think the number of air units was probably it, since it was much faster as soon as  killed them... but huge PAC maps have received lag complaints before.
i liked this one, good fun, if slow-ish but entertaining throughout! 8)

Oh, I thought it was just me experiencing lag. That aside, though, I enjoyed it. :D Thanks, Thumbmaster and little one! :)

Sorry about the lag.  :-\

It started out MUCH MUCH worse. I had to trim down a LOT while the little one was sleeping. We'll do better next time. Glad you'd enjoyed it!   ;D

Ahhhhh! Somehow the final torrent of spore destruction (once the human energy supply tips too low) never fails to delight... Thanks to Thumbmaster and all the other PAC developers :-)

also might be stacking the units... try placing them near each other instead next one and see if that helps???
still fun for me, lag or not!  8)

A surprising amount of lag.  I also don't see how people are getting the really short times on this one.

well i suggest

Spoiler

get the 4 nearest PZ, i went SE, NE, NW, SW, then turn all 9 original emitters to spore towers. i did this before 40 secs or so, then in 4 pairs and a single i used them to batter direct at south CN then went NE CN and then after the NW CN, using the PZ's along the way as spores too, and then just go mental with spreading them out to clean up.

hope that helps  8)
ps...
Tunnen! i am going to find more than 7 seconds!!!  >:(  ;) 8)

Very nice but very laggy PAC map! Interesting beginning and good game planning. Not so useful runners.
Enjoyed! Thank You!  :)
