Map Data

Description This map was made for the ned 4 contest. The theme is that the level is focused on a certain pattern of tiles, which is used in three different places. You end up using the top and the bottom of every string, so I definitely played out the theme.
There's a big bunch of gold for you if you are willing to face down an extra two turrets (and these two are the deadliest in the map), but it gets blocked off if you don't grab it efore descending into the pit for the first time. Thats my way of appealing to both Max and Maniac, because I know Maximo will want to make an all gold and likes harder levels while Maniac will take the easier option and sacrifice the 22 seconds worth of gold. There's also some other gold at the part above the exit switch, but that stuff isn't imortant.

Ouch

Yes, thank you for the optional non-difficulty.

The only problem with this level was that, even if I didn't go for the gold, it was still way too hard to play. It was insane getting back up, because I had to ascend slowly. The 4 gauss turrets could easily kill me. I haven't beaten this level yet, it's still too hard! However, I will give you points for trying.
