Love it, Kreeper - thank you.

I noticed there's no PAC tag of any kind - is there any way any tag can b e added after a game is published? That's not a criticism (I've Favourited it, after all :D); it's just that it'll be a shame if people can't find your map when searching for PAC maps.

Edit: I've just noticed another thread where a suggestion is made to message Virgil about it.

Great map! It looks like the mid/end game would be a push over, but it gives a good level of challenge throughout. Keep making more maps!

It ran a little slowly on my computer but the slowness was worth the good map. I really enjoyed this one and could see replaying it to try out different paths. Great job!

yeah great map, def worth a replay or too, despite the lag! good job dude 8)

Yeah it was pretty good.
What made you decide too not add bertha's though?

Fun, but a little too slow and a little too big. After about halfway, I had enough spores to overwhelm anywhere I targeted them, including PZ'd beams.

Thanks guys, there were a few errors that were my fault, it is my first map that I have released to anyone. :'(
But I am planning on another, slightly more processor friendly map that will include berthas, I will hope to have it out within a week or two, stay tuned! ;D

Hey Kreeper, don't feel the need to defend yourself - there are many, many people out there who are playing these maps but can't make their own (including me) and wouldn't have the first clue where to start (including me). Massive respect to you for going for it, seriously.

From what I can see, all comments on here are for constructive reasons, so take them as a positive thing, not a negative. I'm looking forward to your next one.

(PS: Massive respect and thanks to anyone who makes these maps, to be fair! :D)

/end helicopter-parenting mode (sorry!)
