I know you cannot beat the level before a certain point, but this is part of a storyline, so it's not 100% in line with speedrunning

Oooo-kay!
You wrote, that this level can't be beaten before a certain point - You are totally right!
You can't beat this level before you are totally nuts!
And as I am totally nuts now, I will not rate this map before I have slept over it!
I can't decide if I rate it 'ten' for

Spoiler

giving tech one by one and a nice route and a nice boss-emitter

[close]

or if I rate it 'one' for your pure malevolence with these

Spoiler

slip-emitters

[close]

...

However - it's a unique map! Thanks ;)

Edit  - After getting up and opening CW I decided for the ten ;)

I might not have played all the precursor maps, I don't have any tech or collectors or even a siphon for energy. That sucks. I don't know that I really want to scrabble around trying to find the specific maps I haven't played. I see some explosions happening, but I can't tell if they affect anything or not?

@Bilbo

The idea with the slip emitters were to act as a minor but frustrating threat while you attempt to go forward; a backdoor incase you weren't prepared or if you just didn't use relays (which are incredibly useful, I must add).

Edit: Realised you edited, nvm

@Karsten

The maps you need are:
S01-10 - Aequl (Unlocks: Collector, Relay, Terp, Guppy, Siphon)
S01-15 - Kliogizon (Unlocks: Cannon, Mortar, Ore Mine, Bomber, Sniper)
S01-1A - Airend (Unlocks: Shield, Reactor, Beam, Strafer)
S01-1F - Eucefica (Unlocks: Sprayer, Bertha, Forge, Nullifier)


I think what I'll do is I will make a version where you don't need the shield keys to beat the map.

And then there is a typo in your transmitter message:



Note the A01-15.

@Karsten:
In this map, you get the tech not by collecting but by

Spoiler

waiting - You get tech one by one... and force abilities, too

[close]

But be warned, bring yourself in a peaceful mood for this map... What LappySheep wrote is true - the slip emitters can be really frustrating, at least the collectors are cheap!

Spoiler

For the forge, it would have been nice to be notified that there are no further upgrades when it's done, I waited quite a while for range and rate...

[close]

But, as said, it was something different and I don't look back in anger!

Yea, but I've definitely not played all of those 4 maps, so I'm not sure what I'll get or not get. Maybe some other time.
