Feedback on Badwater
Aight, after playing around a lot i'll drop a feedback. I do like Badwater as it gives you a challenge to deal with additionally to the game, so props for that.
What i tho REALLY find bad is that Badtide can happen already at Cycle 2 which is, on a good couple maps, HORRIBLE. I really did like the earlier experimental update better where Cycle 4 was the time where Badtide would happen as it gave you just the amount of time to settle in and prepare for the worst. So far i been playing Terasses and Meander both on Hard Mode, while Terasses had it's earlierst for me on cycle 3 (and it was TIGHT), my Meander gameplay was even worser with Cycle 2, 3 and 4 being all BADTIDE. It quite literaly throws progress around, in a bad way.
So yeah, i kinda hope that maybe a "Cycle 4 Badtide can start appearing" makes a return again because it's quite stressful.
Other then that tho, stay awesome, y'all doing a great job!

SigurhelI do agree, this is horrible on a couple of maps. Those where the things to fix before a cycle 2 requires very optimal play (nightmare mode) and might not even be possible on some. Craters basically requires you to have levies (and pref floodgate lvl 2) on cycle 2, having built up so enough levies so you can divert the flow.
Basically any map with a single stream and no easy way to divert is going to be bad or close to impossible on cycle 2. Canyons, craters, etc.
I really like the mechanics, but they need to be balanced at bit ;)
