Had the game wrapped up by 5 then had to wait 3 minutes for the lower bottom (500 cost) cube to finish. I noticed that Blogeas had a time of 33 minutes. So here's a strategy guide:

1. TURN OFF the bottom Beacons until  later. (If your computer is slow go ahead and kill ALL those worthless Makers, they don't help very much.)
2. You can force the top Maker to 'flip' to Anti-Creeper by building a Shield above it and another ONE space below it (NOT next to it). It will produce Anti-Creeper for you the whole game. You can remake the Shields as needed right after it flips.
3. Go down the left side as fast as possible.
4. Turn on the Dark Beam. Kill the Emitter it hits (WITH Nullifiers). Dig out the terrain so the Beam can go all the way down. Build Beacons a low as possible.
5. Build at least 12 Blasters and Launchers and kill the Creeper to the left of the Dark Beam.
6. Max out Beacon range
7. When all the Creeper is gone from the left side of the Beam, turn it off and let the Blasters and Launchers kill the Creeper to the right.
8. Build a Beacon (and Rift) in the Field locked Anti-Creeper.
9. When that Beacon is done turn on the lower Beacons (dig if necessary)
10. Start on the lower left cube, while you build a Dark Beam for the Emitter next to it when the Shields eventually die (note: under a Shield on the left is a 1000 Technyte Remnant, and the Capsule to the right has 100,000 energy)
11. While waiting for the lower left cube to finish you can get all the other stuff at your leisure. Use the original Dark Beam with Mirrors.

-Good Luck!
