First person that played it gave me a one! I KNEW THAT WOULD HAPPEN! I made this map right by blocking beams and nullifiers! FUN!

Spoiler

You will HAVE to place shields EVERYWHERE until you get beams!

I liked it. Using shields isn't my favorite thing to do. They're just so weak and fragile. Having said that, I liked all the other elements of the map. I played this through w/o pausing or saving and it was pretty challenging. Had to vary the speed at times. It would be very helpful to note that the emitters to the right are substantially weaker than the others. (A fact I noticed only AFTER reaching the beams to the south). Get beams ASAP and then kill the shields.

Cool map - and I liked that it didn't lag at all. Good job! ;D

I put that in there so people could backdoor to get beams. :D

Wow! Great first Particle map! I can't wait to see more! (Just don't rush them. I enjoy a good dialogue at the beginning too. And well-thought-out gameplay.)

:D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

I've added this to the list of Particle maps on the wiki.

If you want to see how I made and played my own map click here. I sped it up so you don't watch 2+ hours of video so you just watch 15 minutes worth. Note the beginning appearance. The reason I took so long was the editing and playthrough.

Fun map, really enjoyed it and I am a fan of these new particle emitters.

If you are quick and head east you can collect the beam and build them before a single spore fires.

Cool map, had a minor bug with NE particle emitter, the sprite disappeared, but health bar was still there.
Also, you tied win condition to picking up all nullifiers and beams - for a moment there I thought because of emitter bug my whole playthrough wouldnt record :P

It's not a bug, there's two cores there. One emitter, one terrain generator. The nullifier and beam tech artifacts HAVE to be collected in order to win, so that's not me. ;)

Yuck. First spore salvo, every spore aimed itself for the same shield. The result was unrecoverable.
