Inspired by Multitask and The Athlete... welcome to The Creeper Race!

Complete each quadrant and move onto the next before time runs out!

Each section has a set time limit before the super emitter sets off.

Can you beat the creeper?

Great map! Love these kind of things!

Didn't have the patience to bridge over the crazonium walls like Roccologic probably will do, so I've set a 'normal' time.

Thanks for this map (and for getting inspired by The Athlete)! :)

i think there is a faster way as my, but  at the moment its fast enough  ;D

PS: you can win with only 4 Blaster  ;)

I'm curious to the strat you used to shave about 4 min off my best time, if you don't mind sharing

thats how... #1 and #2 are the same but I didn't realize you could do that with #3... interesting.

See I always went through the maze with a bunch of relays holding off the creeper with the blasters swapping them in and out to get recharged until the relays were able to power them.

Ha... I'll keep that in mind for the next one I make like this =)

UpperKEES

I did it the normal way. Didn't use relays, but alternated collectors with blasters, so I lose most time at #3. If you keep building them with your spare energy, you'll have 17 of them at the end of stage 3. I didn't notice the middle totems, so I lost the time of building 2 collectors + charging 2 totems.

Rocco, you can only bypass single crazonium walls like this, right? So building double crazonium walls would solve this issue.

That was fun - hope you will return to making more.
