Description I've noticed that the time count pauses when N wins, so I made this. Not sure what category it is in, but it might be an action/puzzle/test level hybrid.

The goal in this map is to get to the goal at the bottom- right corner and win, but also do it in the fastest time. At each room, you must decide if you want to go for the exit switches (the time stoppers) or just run like a madman to the next room. The trick is, between each room, you must wait for a certain amount of frames because of the items that block your path. Decide whether you would rather run and wait later, or pause to get the exit switch (since the exits stop the frame time, you would not lose any frames in the waiting rooms). Usually, getting the exit switch and not waiting is faster, but it's harder, and only faster by a small amount.

Try to compete for the fastest demos. RCE

Also, on a side note, I won't be making very many maps anymore, so don't expect too much.

EDIT: Changed to puzzle.

Could've gone faster, but messed up at the zap drone and the ending.

@cydux: It's not really a glitch. It was an intended feature to get an accurate frame count at the end. Thanks for being the only one to vote or comment though :]

Heh.

I really should've posted a demo. Here it is (no time stoppers).

oh snap

played it again - didn't realise that you could keep playing after going through the door.. haha maybe I should read the description next time. Really cool stuff man. Nice utilization of the glitch.

hey man

thanks for checking out my hard-as-balls puzzle map - I figured I'd give yours a shot considering you gave mine a try. I beat the first bit.. took me a while, but I did it! 4/5 from me - I dig it. It's a tough one!
