I think this is the favorite of your new batch.
It took a bunch of tries to survive through the 5:00 mark - despite the Spoilers.
A great long battle.
Thanks,
H

glad you like it!  i usually don't do a "scramble to set up start" on maps, but this really lends itself to this map i think.

cheers dude!  8)

Great map, dude! Spores and beams just flying and blasting all over the place - gotta love it!

I decided to take out the inner ring first, after building the siphons. Once you can build a single PZ reactor, things move very quickly. Once you have a ring of reactors, you can power up pretty much w/e you wanna power up.

If you're having trouble with the clean-up, just let the AC pump out for a bit and go watch a show or do something else for a bit. Come back and kill more stuff and then rinse & repeat. I do kinda wish this had at least one inhibitor. That way once you survived the real challenge you could end it a bit more quickly. Still, enjoyed it immensely!

Thanks for the map!  ;D ;D

MOARS SPOARS!

My time also took 3 hours but that was due to excessive pausing. I would say the amnount of PZs make this more like an endurance test for the speedrunner, it's less about skill and more about having the patience to use all of that power. I'm exhausted!

yes i was hoping the speedrunners would like the options for approaches.  the only really tricky part is the first stage, after that it was just about method.  8)
