These are random tricks that can help improve your efficiency at playing Creeper World 4. They're not required to play the game but they can make harder levels much easier and improve your times.

• Balance your energy generation/usage. If you start to see your storage filling up with energy, find a way to spend it. It's better to be in a small deficit than to have maxed energy storage.
• Build energy infrastructure (Towers/Miners) for as long as you can before building anything else. More energy generation early means more energy for other activities than you would otherwise have.
• If you have immediate access to an ERN at the start of the level, it can be very efficient to build 3 towers, and then focus only on building a single miner and ERNing it. An ERNed miner gives 5 energy generation which will kickstart your energy generation, and subsequently your initial tower buildout, faster than just building towers will do.

• In this game, the base does not need to be landed to generate energy. Moving your lab closer to areas that need packets will reduce packet travel time to these areas at no cost.
• You can get a speed improvement to initial tower buildout by hovering your lab closer towards unbuilt towers after the few initial towers are finished.
• Flying the lab directly above the last totem/nullifier will reduce travel time of the last packet, saving a few game frames.
