@Hyxaru: The trick to Experiment is to build a siphon on the green gem to get energy, then build a guppy and use the guppy to rescue the pods (start at the bottom-most islands). Once the guppy starts rescuing, build 3 beams on your main island. Once the guppy rescues all pods, then build a few mortars to protect the main island, then start the slow crawl to capture the top three islands, get a forge going, start upgrading then move south once you build a good economy. It's slow, but not difficult.

everything is pretty much explained either in user space or here, exept shield. I tried to use it against digits and against creeper and i failed. What did I miss?
whining aside, this is a marveless game, and if you don't think so you belong with the nothingnesssssssssssssssssss...

@taugrom: Collectors create the links but also generate energy. Relays do not generate energy but two relays can be much further apart (good for jumping valleys). Siphons allow you to collect the energy from green gems (quick boosts of energy for the beginning of a game).

Great game, but it seriously needs more description of the different structures. At best there are vague hints at what each building does, at worst there is just no explanation. This is a huge weakness and flaw in any game, but it's much worse to see in a strategy game with lots of depth like this one.

i still dont understand which item does what whats the difference between a collector and a relay they just make the webbing to send the little blobs and the siphon and shit just confuses me

@darkniko for override I just set up quickly a collector network while setting up 2 cannons set up at the break point. then set up about 3 mortars per pit of creeper. After that, just slowly push forwards with cannons and sprayers. Use mortars and/or flying units (don't remember if you have them at that point) to weaken the defenses over the wall and drop a few cannons over at once where they can get ammo from a collector. You'll get past that one easy. The only hard part is making sure you don't die right away.

Override mission is very difficult without terp techs :S i already have Understand and Farewell but Over one can't pass it S:

Just to add to Devak's comment, the purple ring will also boost nullifier range. If there is a second object you want to destroy anywhere close to the first you can probably just use the ring to boost the range and you won't have to clear as much creeper.

Wheres the terp ? Im in mission 10 right now and i don't have the terp :S. Did i pass it and don't grab it in earlier missions? Can somone please tell me in whish mission i can find Terp technology!!! PleaSE !!!

@devak yes it does but not in the first map....(shown in like 2 or 3 map i believe but could be wrong) ... although it still works in the first map i definitely recommend using them after you get one emitter it becomes very easy to take down all the others :D

Easily one of the best games I've ever played. Also nice to see the developer(s) returning to the roots, the academy sequel was not bad either, but the original is the best IMHO.

the purple ring left behind by a destroyed creeper object (e.g. spore or emitter) will superpower whatever you put on it. This isn't apparent nor explained in the game. Once you destroy one emitter, it becomes a LOT easier to destroy the others. Once it served it's purpose, put a generator on top of it for maximum energy.

Its a nice game but... I would of liked a little bit more explanation on what each building do.... I struggled alot at the start cuz I had no idea what each type of building was for.

@Ancano: Three command centres deployed, one near each pool - build two mortars per pool straight away. Should wipe nearly all the creeper out before the walls break, then just play as normal.

For those of you who had trouble on "Experiment", remember that you just recently got guppies, use them to move energy to the survival pods directly then complete the mission as normal. Hope this helps!

Good game as always but does the energy bar really need to hang up there covering part of the game field? The giant Cancel button and the Menu button could use another friend out there in the vast empty space around them :)

Phenomonal game. First one I actually completed to the end. The thing you're missing though is still the multiplayer to make this perfect. I want to play this against my friend. Find a way to make it happen and I'd happily buy that version. Still, great work none the less.

Just a quick criticism of an otherwise fantastic game - the last levels are quite easy. The survival pod level is far harder. I haven't purchased any of the creeper world games, but of the ones on Kongregate, I think this one has the easiest endgame levels. The computer and the village levels in User Space, or the second to last level in Creeper World 2, are far more challenging than these.
Also, a mute option which mutes ALL the game sound, not just music within a level, would be nice. I like to listen to music while I play games, and it's irritating to finish a level and then have my music drowned out by the game sound.
Other than that, this game is an incredible improvement on the earlier Creeper World games and undoubtedly deserves a 5/5. I'm seriously considering purchasing the latest Creeper World game when I create a steam account.

Played this at my friend's house when it was on steam his game was glitched and the graphics where horrible, now that I can actually see the game IT IS AMAZING!

Quite fun game, Tips from me for higher stage,Override= don't make a big base from beginning, build small and cramped base at top left, make 2 mortar to demolish pond of critter there,2 generator and 2 beam to defense the base, make 2 sprayer at right and bottom + some cannon and mortar, then start crawling to bottom to take back the mine and totem, make sure to use sprayer to open the battle first, while mortar and cannon covering it.

Is Understand an homage to the D-Day in Normandy? It was quite an inside joke to complete that level on 6th June. :D
It was a really enjoyable game, another good piece of the Creeper World series. 5/5 and a favorite for sure. :)
