Tower Defence - addictive game

Interesting game. 69 is my best so far. It's intriguing that a wide range of strategies can get you to the 60-65 mark - it's when it gets towards 70 that you need to be more tactical. What I've learnt so far:

* storm towers suck.

* you need a balance between strong defenses on the opening row, for quick money early on, and powerful forces in the centre which can reach the whole playing area.

* you should always aim to finish them off before they reach the right-hand side of the board. It's better to concentrate your strength on the left and in the middle, as you get more money and more time between rounds if you need it.

* fewer powerful towers is better than many weaker ones. Apart from anything else, it makes your strategy easier to follow.

* plan what you're doing from the beginning as erecting new towers beyond a certain point isn't cost-effective.

So addictive :(
 
level 70 with 4 ice towers and 2 nature towers when i found out what i was doing lol. only level 67 after getting the big tower though.... and i had to build the same number of other towers just to get to that. waste of money that was.

i think ideally 6 nature towers upgraded asap and then the big tower upgraded fully might do it...
 
Why we're all dying at about 70-75:

Second go 67... ended up with 20 towers and couldn't make money fast enough lol. I'll try fewer towers this time!

EDIT got 62 with fewer towers :( that £3000 tower is rubbish :eek: waste of money tbh!!

EDIT Level 70! Im tired :o

I've got upto 76 using just nature towers, I built 5 at the start put them down the u bend upgraded them to a living tower one at a time, then kept making more at the points where there is max firing range and upgrading them as well.
 
Just got to level 77 (I haven't been playing all night in case anyone's wondering!)

Used this configuration

They seem to work better when firing at right angles, so I tried to get them to fire down the straights as the attackers came.
 
Got to 78 by moving the lower right tower to the centre and making it an ice tower.

Might try your layout with ice towers after I wake up.
 
Ok, I got to 79 with this (following Haircut's approach):

Living life right on the edge early on with just two separate ones on the left but decided I just couldnt save up 23000 to get the big shed flower thing?!... I got to 9000 then needed to bolster my defenses.

I just made it to 76 using the following setup:

The fire tower at the end was a last-ditch attempt in level 75, and it just kept me standing for one extra level.
I tried to aim for a fully upgraded tower thing, but every time I got close, another tower needed upgrading to keep up with the enemies.
 
I am very sceptical of right-angles making any difference at all. I suspect this game just calculates ranges from towers to blobs and applies damage when the blobs are within a certain range.
 
Best is 75 so far, too damned addictive!

And i can't find a pause function, which means i can't make the wife a brew ;)
 
I just scored 77 -with 8 living towers, 2 supernatural towers and 1 ultimate ice tower. I think it's best to put most of the towers on the left side of the map and towards the top, so they inflict maximum damage straightaway.

The armoured towers don't seem much good as they're so expensive. I got the flower power tower about 3 attempts ago and only scored in the low 70s.

Nice game - hard to believe anyone scored 90 though :)


edit - now scored 78. I give up now :)

I only seem to be able to get to 71, really annoying! :p

Anyone managed to upgrade the flower thing to the next level?
