donut3.5: Approved: I like the idea behind this TD, although it was a bit confusing. Still, fun. A suggestion: Make the Core have more health and less regeneration. That way it will be more challenging!

OK sure.

Know that I did not know thems were the rules

When i posted the beta of this version, it was just for minimal distribution to see what bugs / suggestions some new eyes could discover.

The original map (Undrawing's Rune TD), which was submitted by Mobius One was removed then.

I soon discovered multiple beta versions popping up on other websites. Websites WITHOUT the update feature, like epicwar.com. I did not want that to happen, and no one here seemed to have found any bugs. So I deleted the map from here and resumed the beta testing with a smaller crowd.

Is that sufficient?

Hi, so the unprotected version is now available.

If anyone wants to find the cause of the multiplayer fatals, be my guest. Or use it for your own purposes. Learn a bit, take a bit, add a bit. Give it an original name and release it!
