Dbeam didn't release for me so spend 40 minutes on an uncompletable map.

If theres a mysterious trigger to unlock a piece of teck that you need to complete the map at least mention it in the description.

Hi, thanks for the comment, but there is no way to submit a map if it hasn't been completed at least once and a score submitted. To get to the dark beam:
Spoiler
The only digger is at the top right. You either need to have a path of no creeper to the dark beam dig site, or use a pair of rifts - digger packets will route through them. That very same is the one of two that has no path to any dig sites. That should be suggestive enough
[close]

That being said, this is my first map, and there are a few annoyances that I'm not entirely happy about, but I submitted it after changing my mind on a bunch if things. I'm trying to balance it better and changing the solution strategy subtley.

Thanks for playing it at least.

I had to eat mountains of high density anti-creeper so that I could get to the dark beam. I didn't realise you could use rifts.

I loved this map, the game play at the end was highly original.

Great Map - had to have two goes at it as i got a big trigger happy.
Second go - all good!

Great map, one of the best ever!

Thanks!

One of my favorite maps of all time.
I love the way we hve to use anti-creeper in the right places to stop the creeper digging packets till we are ready for them.

Awsome

Thanks all, I won't take the number of thumbs down personally, only comments.

thumbs down is more a difficulty rating than a quality rating, so comments are more useful for opinions, shame more people don't join the forums.
(still haven't done this one yet, keep rage quitting!  ;) good work dude)

i really enjoy this map. im still playing it. the one thing i dont like is the time is very slow. even on highest speed its a bit slow but im pecking along

Can you post a screenshot of how to release dark beam, the spoiler isn't quite thorough enough as I placed rifts by the two upper most right gateways but these areas are full of anti creeper now.
