Same strategy as Acipiter. Freezse the ememies and them hit them with the splash towers. Use air towers for the flyers.
The upgrades seem kinda weak to me.

You can target creeps in this version, so aim for the ones low on health first to buy some more time.

The upgrades really aren't worth it. I got 2467 on the second try just building all Splash Towers around the C and some air towers in the middle.

Got to level 93 by using this method. 2591 points.

1 second more and I'd have made it to 94, needed one more kill to get to 100 creeps in total that round.

Advantage of this method above random placement (which seems better as upgrades give less damage for more money than placing a new tower) is the aiming part. By continuous clicking on any creep moving forward the slow towers will crowd them together, and as all damage is in one place they die reasonably fast. In the middle I had 5 level 9 air towers. This so they could hit just about the whole area without me having to pay attention to air creeps.

I scored 1925 on my first try using the old-school "carpet with L1 splash towers" method, with some L1 air towers in the middle. The "hard air" creeps did me in, I couldn't kill them fast enough with my weak air defense.

/me pages M4H to figure out how to exploit some hidden imbalance in the game... ;)

I haven't had the time to sit down and figure out the math involved in this one. Also, the stupid grid-style graphics hurt my eyes. :p
