Cubical Moments Part 3
—————————————————
Author: Grimlar Download Map: – Authors Map Description –A moments hope, comes with the dawn, but no help in sight, lost and forlorn. Available modes include: Story, Grinder, Focal Point, No Red Towers, Fully Loaded, Out Of Bullets, Frozen Core, Tower Limit, Super Grinder Normal missions can be played in either comp or open modes. Note. The Story/Campaign mission does not upload the score to the leaderboard, this is not something I can fix, it is a HPE issue. For this reason the Story/Campaign mission is considered to be a practice mission aimed at people who have few if any Tower Upgrade Items. As such, please use the Story Open elite mission if you want to play on Open Elite with Tower upgrade items and Story – Leaderboards for anybody else. V1.1 A fix to the pathing. This map is a follow on from Part 2, It has slightly more tower build locations, and a couple of command shuttle options but is more spread out, it provides a different challange to Parts 1 or 2. The spawn scripts for the different challenge modes are the same as for Parts 1 & 2, although the difficulties and gold medal scores may have been adjusted slightly to suit the map. I am still hoping to release a few more in this series although the number of tower tiles available will continue to be higher than in the first two maps. All normal (non Open Elite) modes have been beaten on Competitive No Sell Hard without losing any cores or aliens or using any command shuttle options. Thank you to OCD, TNTFTB, McB and Shark@tak for helping to test this map. Any errors are my responsibility not theirs. A reminder for anyone who plays any Focal Point/Power Outage mission type, not just this map, enemies killed by the cursor do not add to your score. Damaging them seems to be fine, just dont kill them that way. If you find the map too easy on any of the Open Elite missions, then consider trying the Competitive Hard/Elite version of the mission, I am told that these are usually harder. If you find the missions to be too easy on Competitive Elite, or find any other issues, then please post a comment below giving as much information as possible whilst avoiding spoilers. If you find any mission (other than Competitive Elite,) to be too difficult, then please consider the following options. |
I really like such small maps! Challenging puzzle.
Even with less places for towers I would enjoy…
Thanks for all your efforts!
Ok, trying this once again, to get all your highscores.. 🙂
Im sure that wont take you too long, my scores arent that good. 🙂
They are deliberately left that way so that people who complete the map without losing any cores are likely to get gold for it. With any further competition being left to players competing against friends or the leaderboard.
Its a real risk you see, if I play a mission (testing) too many times, even if Im not that good my score, my build pattern will probably improve to the point where someone playing the map for the first time may find it impossible to match the score and give up. Id rather they beat me and gain a little sense of accomplishment, of enjoyment.
Also, to be honest, I cant really face playing each map enough times to get that good at it. Im slow enough making maps as it is. 🙁
fun little map!
Nice map. I did notice however that you can build towers on the row from the bottom point of the map to the right hand point, even though it blocks the path for the aliens to run through. They have to go through a tower, run around off the grid and back on through another tower. Bug or feature?

Thank you for the image. I would have to say that is a bug. I will hopefully have a fix up for it in a little bit.
Ok bugfix uploaded, fingers crossed that works for you.
Yep, you fixed it. Nicely done.
Now, if you could fix it so HPE make DG3, that would be truly impressive!
To be honest, Id settle for some DLC and a reasonable patch at the moment.
However, I think HPE are focussed on supporting their new game Brass Tactics which released for the Oculus rift about a week ago. Review here. It seems to be getting decent reviews.
With the studios focus on VR I have to wonder if we will ever see a DG3 at all. or at least one thats playable on 2d monitors.
Thank you all for compliments. Hope you enjoy playing it.
Many thanks Grimlar.
Hey Grimlar,

Wow, at the moment one new map succeeds the other.
Many thanks to all of you!
