Thanks!

My maps are mostly made out of basic abstract shapes and this is a small step in another direction, so I'm really glad it worked.

At first I tried contouring drones (zap and/or laser ones) which when combined with gauss turrets, make for an interesting "good timing vs. speed" challenge, but I also wanted the difficulty to be about the same for either direction. Since I couldn't do that with zap drones contouring in only one direction (and the challenge wouldn't be as interesting if they were in both), and on top of that, they also cluttered the sprite quite a bit, I eventually dropped them off entirely.

This is an agd attempt from the other side. Couldn't get all the gold quickly this way yet, but I believe this might be the faster route.

Surprisingly easy!

You really transcended the limitations of tiles to create the illusion of double the resolution.
