Have I gone mad? no, but close to it! Skipping a map, who woulda thought of such a thing? Where's part 6? coming soon! And it will answer all your questions. How did you end up in a black hole, how did you get your thor tech back? What planet blew up?! The wait must be driving you crazy!

The difficulty isn't quite what I intended... The map isn't consistent with my tests for some reason. When I tested it, the Thor tech could just about hold back an intensity 800 interval .1 emitter, but in this map it can hold it back just fine. So the difficulty should really be medium, the start is difficult though. I'll make a harder version sometime. When I postedthis, it was 2 am and I figured it was good enough. The story's what matters anyways.
EDIT: 10 comments shall mark the release of old foes part 6, so you can figure out what's supposed to fill the big hole in the plot. Comment away, lemme know what you think, just don't spam comments.
When the going gets tough, the tough get going. The smart left a long time ago.

How you find yourself in a black hole ? One reason could be testing the infinity improbability drive.. something about powering it up to uhm get uhm loki ehh something. Ehh well that is my vague input for number 6 hehe.

Spoiler
Not sure if it was intended, but I got all 6 upgrades and thor tech build before creeper hit me (left first, then right). After that it was a simple matter of getting energy and blasters to cap the weaker emitters.

That should have been tested out.... and it was, before I changed it. Like I said earlier, I ended posting this around 2 am... I need to make a new version, the intensity 800 emitters need to be a  it higher so that thor can't quite contain them, and the emitters at the start need to be strong enough that you can't quite get thor tech built first... and put the stronger emitters back in their pit so that thor won't destroy all the creeper they create.

gotcha ! You have to make it before 5 minutes... it's possible :) I moved odin to the left... good luck !

Ebon Heart

My god fridge... Your skills amaze me.... You've just made it official, I need to make some changes to this map. I need to make the start harder too, as well as make the emitters in the center more intense. Also, there's now enough comments for me to post map number 6!! Are you guys excited to figure out the hole in the story???

I find the difficulty just fine - thank you very much!

Thank you for another fine game.

the problem is, my intention was for the thor to be nearly able to nearly cap the emitters in the center, but not quite. In this version, the thor can completely hold them back.

When I collect the note in the middle, the text box is too large to fit in my screen and I can't close it.  There's no way for me to complete the game if I collect it, since I can't see the "continue" button.  I've had this problem on other maps too, and I don't know how to get around it.  I've tried changing my screen size, etc.

Virgil fixed that problem a while back.
