Here's a silly little map testing an idea I had. You WILL see this in a future map and it WILL be much harder. BWAHAHHAHHAHHAHA!

Good Creeper Phantoms...clever

Clever. Laggy, but clever.

The idea/concept is fine. The execution however is not. The anti-creeper is so powerfull that you can open all tubes at once, and just wait. The 1-nullifier limit seems pointless.


If your looking at making a future version I would suggest:
Differentiate the strength of the hostile emitters. Balance it so that you can only "open" a few tubes at a time, and you have to fight your way through the tubes. Reduce the number of tubes. Too boring at the end.

Also, if you insist on using anti-creeper phantoms (quite frankly it does little different from simply having an anti-creeper emitter by the LS) - you really shouldn't make them so frequent with so many, it makes the game really laggy even on small maps for no purpose.

One thing I never found out, is whether anti creeper is divided into number of fanthoms or it is constant.
Anyways besides the lag, this is the best idea I have seen so far. Going to try your sequel now.

Fun game - even though I missed a bunch of ways to reduce the time.

FWIW - I have to play on a 26" monitor (Full Screen) to see what I'm doing and there was no lag at any time.

Very nicely put together.
Thanks,
