10/10 for map design, the artwork and canons were just great!

It was made relatively a chunk easier due to the fact that each defense block was powered by it's own orbital. The task was much easier than other maps which use interwoven connections.
That said, it was great fun to play and a bit of a mind bender (am I allowed to say 'bender'?) when scaling the walls. We know it's top down action, but because the human mind likes to work in 3 dimensions, it tripped me out.

Very well done to you!
Many thanks.

I am glad you liked it and it was never intended to be hard. I do know what you mean about the creep scaling the 'walls' - It is a bit trippy he he :)

This map looks great, as my first PAC map it took me onwards of 2 hours of getting frustrated before I knew you could pulse/toggle things etc. Perhaps in the opening dialogue say you can 'press h' or some such so someone else is not left completely clueless to these vital commands.

Although not challenging, this map is my favorite one, I love this amazing artwork and the clever ideas to storm the castle.

I'm guessing you are asking how to play a "Play as Creeper" map here. If so, I put together a guide at http://knucklecracker.com/forums/index.php?topic=17572.msg124848 that should give you the basics. It's a bit old now, but it should help you get started.
Good Luck.
