I can reach the integer maximum with this room.

Beat that.

I f combos were a part of scoring, that would ruin previous rankings for the vast majority of rooms, making the spider have to crawl through a few million demos all over again. Not to mention that it would invalidate many many hours of effort made by the various players who play for high-scores.

So yeah... Not a good idea.

×An arbitrarily large combo can be achieved in (at least) Tuenan Armory, 1N 2E.

Excellent! I was wondering if there was any room where that was possible.

Are there any other rooms where this can be done without the room getting into an unwinnable state?

Surely any room with loads of roach queens all next to bombs and Beethro next to a fuse.

But that would need designing. I'm sure a few Lone Soldier rooms could be good examples of existing max combo rooms though
