screenshot of final

got to level 97 with a variation of this methood, had 8 splash towers, all but one maxed out, quite a few frost towers maxed out as well

4-5 air towers in the center, one or two maxed

edt. score 2710
I took a quick look at that screenshot and based on that strategy, I got to level 101 / 2828. Manual targeting helps greatly.

it got quite messed up at the end.

Soo many creeps with such little health.. mighta squeezed another couple levels out if my floorplan was different.

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.

I was thinking about doing that after the fact that I upgraded.

You lose 2 dmg point and the cost ratio for the dmg gain is negative, however the range is the bonus for the upgrade. Singe you don't need too much range with the right splash placement, having alot of level 1 (or 2) towers spread out after setting up some level 9 towers at the hot gates might prove more effective. Gonna try again now that I have time.

Dont worry, the upgrades are absolutely worthless. Unless you physically run out of room on the map for towers, then theres no logical incentive to upgrade.

Likewise, the targetting feature is nice for a tower game, but it isnt useful in this game at all because you dont have to prevent the creeps from getting anywhere.

The build your own maze game is far superior to this one. Would be nice if they added a targeting feature to it though.

GOt to lvl 74 on my first try. Didn't do much upgrading because it seems cost prohibitive. hmm.

I agree. There's no point in upgrading unless you already have towers in every good spot.
