This is a maze. Unfortunately, everything is in white! The terrain elevation, the creeper and the energy zone!

Not *exactly* a maze, because there's no wrong way to go, but you're totally blind throughout...

Then again, someone can open the map up in the map editor, make the terrain visible, and use it as a guide whilst playing the level.
Of course, it is a neat idea. I was thinking of making a map where your only guide is to let the creeper fill in the gaps to see where to go.

Yes, I noted that in the game description that one could do that. Be it known(!) that after I made the map, I left it alone for a few days before completing it, so I could be as in the dark as possible. Of course, I knew the idea of the map, but I didn't remember exactly where to go, etc.

Exactly how are you supposed to find your way through the maze?
By selecting a collector and moving it around waiting for the indicator to stop being red?

There are various other maps out there that make use of the "make everything the same colour and thus render the player blind (and frustrated)" concept. However, this one, by way of an exception, is both playable and quite fun...

Thanks, Anonymeus. I was afraid there would be too many people upset with it, so I made the invisibility the difficult part, and tried to make the rest of it fairly simple.
