Weekly Seed #95 [Beta 2.1] [Seed: AlphaBarrageRipper]

[zxc]

This week's seed: AlphaBarrageRipper



The Weekly Seed is open to anyone, and we encourage you to share your experiences, stories, and tactics over the course of your run.

The rules are as follows:

• The Weekly Seed begins from the date this thread is posted and lasts about seven days.
• Make sure you are running the correct version of Cogmind (see thread subject).
• Enter the seed and abort your current game to initiate the seed (more details are below).
• Verify you are not running the tutorial and that the screenshots below match your game.
• Play through the game once. This is a friendly event and we are all honest people.
• When finished, post your scoresheet here (it should be the newest file in /scores) and any other screenshots/stories/strategies you wish to share with the community.
• If you want to share details about the seed or your approach, make sure you use spoiler tags.
• Due to the spoilerific nature of this thread, be sure to avoid reading details about the seed if you haven't completed your run.
• As Cogmind now has multiple difficulty modes and challenges which will affect the world generation, by default it is assumed everyone is playing on regular difficulty with no challenges enabled. You are free to use whichever settings you wish, but if you intend on discussing it, be sure to specify what difficulty/challenges you're using!

Good luck and have fun!

Woo! Back to Weekly Seeds! Things have been crazy at home, so this is the first time I've gotten to play in a while.

I made it through mats pretty quickly, and ended up picking up a couple flight units. I headed into the lower caves (maybe not a good idea), but things went well until I hit the second lower caves...from the start I felt like I was running for my life. I managed to slip into Zion with something like 145 core and no resources. No worries, I'll stock up in Zion. Nope, Zion held no propulsion or power for me to use, so I was force to journey into the proximity caves virtually naked, albeit with some backup . Even then, I ran into a few too many goons and opened a really big door to my demise .

As always, my runs will be uploaded to my youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChfKrCBdatBePGqB1LsAKuw I upload Cogmind vids M, W, F (mostly), and these will probably start going up the first week of October.

Unfortunately, I lost the last 6 mins or so of video for the run, so just the audio will be there .

Happy Hacking!

The sense of pressure and impending doom really does start building up if you decide to take a long route through the caves but lose too many parts and core integrity. Sometimes I chicken out and head back early
