After having to redo a chunk of first encounters part 5, and losing the work on a forum topic for my maps, I'm about to just give up. Does anyone have an idea for a fun custom map I can work on? I need something to make designing custom maps fun again! If I get back into it, I may make this into an open request page for custom maps, comissions... Is that the right word? I also may just take a break. We'll see.

Done it, lost it, don't feel like remaking it atm (creeper manipulation 101, lost it when my comp finally died... along with  "Corvus Battle" "Minecraft at Night" And my first "final" version of First Encounters Part Five.) I made another final version of that on my laptop, but lost that file when my downloads folder was wiped... meh.

hmm... I may actually be able to do something with CobraKill's idea... :D Pirana Plants, coopas, goombas, the good  stuff. :D Or I may even do Mario vs. Donkey Kong.... Possiblities. :D

I had this map done before the editor even made sense.

You know, I haven't seen any maps which use the drone eggs, or which require use of maker storage. Perhaps you could look into something like that, for a newer strategy?

I've got a map I'm working on which requires the player to use Maker storage, if you want to see what I mean. I'm pretty sure neither turrets nor missiles can knock through part of the map.

Fair enough. Still, I'd love to see that used a lot more, so it's not just more of the same stuff you encounter in the storyline maps (it seems most user submitted maps to this point are like that.)

You would be hard pressed to deal with the bottom-right emitter without bursting some anti-creeper I imagine - not to say it's necessarily impossible, but it's definitely worth bursting there.
