The Malachite Fortress

I have identified another time and location that requires our explosive intervention. Our next destination will be the Malachite gardens during the Medieval era. Despite the legends of this location housing mythological creatures, the only species you will find here are the ones under Mental's control.

Mental's forces have just recently constructed a power storage facility within the residing druidic cathedral. Enough energy is stored in this location to begin the construction of megastructures and superweapons to potentially orbit around Earth. I think we can both agree that should not be allowed to happen.

As always, Mental won't let this facility go down without a difficult fight. Expect heavy resistance.

Experimental Vanilla-like gameplay mixed with a couple resource pack enemies, which have been rebalanced to fit more naturally into the gameplay. This map is mostly me experimenting with room/arena ideas then duct taping them together. As such, expect a lot of wave-based arena combat with only brief periods of downtime. The constant difficult arena battles could get stressful, so remember to take a short break if you need it!

The fights are intended to be noticeably more difficult than the base game. A Serious difficulty zero death playthrough is certainly possible, however it is not the way I intended the map to be played. A zero death playthrough of the hidden "Challenge Mode" is an exercise in masochism and the people who will unironically attempt it scare me.

Feedback and constructive criticism highly appreciated. Leave a comment if you run into issues and I will look into them as soon as I can.

The enemy count shown in-game is very wrong. Listed here are the actual enemy counts for each difficulty.
Enemies SP: Easy: 1667 / Medium: 1673 / Hard: 1800 / Serious: 1875
Enemies Co-op: Easy: 1971/ Medium: 1981/ Hard: 2169 / Serious: 2270
Challenge Mode SP: Easy: 2016 / Medium: 2028 / Hard: 2169 / Serious: 2360
Challenge Mode Co-op: Easy: 2210/ Medium: 2257/ Hard: 2450/ Serious: 2669

Secrets: 10
Estimated Time to Beat: 1 hour, 20 minutes
Includes custom NETRISCA messages. (For the 5% of you that actually read them)

Best experienced in singleplayer. "Playable" in co-op.
Additional Co-op enemies were designed to REQUIRE the teamwork, firepower, and ammo capacity of 2+ players. If you're solo, or just want a more chill experience with your friends, I HIGHLY ADVISE AGAINST playing with them enabled! Otherwise, simply embrace the chaos.

Rarely, enemies can start to randomly ascend into the air in the hidden Arena of Light.
Some co-op exclusive enemies required for triggers will appear even when additional co-op enemies are disabled.
No cutscenes are present in co-op.
