i really dont mind the game itself, its just the bosses are kind of like, insane, like even at the level 20 boss, its kinda like wtf, i mean a 2 hit kill and this is before you really have time to make good guns.

why is it so hard? I make a tomahawk and then all of a sudden they start attacking it and it can't hit them. great... still 5/5

I like this very much. :) The idea's original, and it's challenging. Got to level 34 before I got beat. However, the inability to sell towers does lower my rating. =/ 4/5

While a sandbox mode would be nice, this is one great game even without it. I've played A LOT of TD's, but the depth and variety of the tech tree found here is absolutely inspired. The graphics are adequate, if not stunning, while the music is very nice and unobtrusive. HUZZAH for the return of creativity! 1.2 version, please! 5/5

The lvl 50 boss level is in a totally different league from all preceding it. Suddenly gets ridiculous. having done alright up until then I could barely dent their health. Hats off to any who clear it.

I put up a hilariously hard-to-read gun tech tree at http://img410.imageshack.us/my.php?image=temp1vo4.png
It would be nice if it was more visually obvious when the apples were fully grown, like if they turned to gold. It would be helpful if the item mouseovers were more descriptive. It would be nice if you could sell guns, since many are good early but useless later.

impossible to beat it due to the fact enemy have 1mil health... i can last forever.. but i can never win by building an apple tree everytime appel gets taken

Even by the standards of tower defence games, this is pretty unimaginative.
"The objective of this game is to defend your apples from the worms", the game says. 'Cool. Well, at least that's a bit different,' think I.
"Click on the handgun icon..." Hand gun? What? Handguns? C'mon, it's not -that- hard to think of something, y'know, worm specific. Crows? Moles? No, we have handguns to defend our orchard from worms.
Just... Fail, right at that point.

Only major flaw is that, in addition to the usual way to play the game, there's also a pretty tedious, but possible strategy: 1. Build two trees. One in the upper right corner, and one in the lower right corner. 2. Let the apple grow as much as possible. 3. If any of the worms are getting close to the tree, click on the apple -- worms will go the other way, usually. If they don't, wait until they exit with the apple before building a replacement tree in that corner. (Saves money that way.) 4. Just keep farming your apples without caring about building turrets.

lol at level 50. All giant worms with 1 million HP. If you wanna get past it you need like 20 trees just so they can take the apples and leave and hope they dont massacre your towers in the meantime.

got to level 50. 1 rocket launcher first, then add 3 apple trees, add another rocket and a gatling. i then eventually added a bunch of fireball launchers, 2 blizzards, 2 meteor things (tiny radius), and about 4 level 3 repair towers thru it. surrounded with base guns for fodder. level 50 was nigh impossible though, i lasted a while but the worms had way too much hp.

good strategy about building trees, put them as far to the right as possible, so if someone grabs the apple you got more time to take care of em

Even more strategies:
Also, its essential to keep in mind that different turrets are useful at different times. Fire turrets are better at high levels, where worms live longer. Gatling guns and rocket towers work well at the start when you have few towers and limited strategic options, but later on, other turrets work better. Just going for one kind of turret isn't going to work: freeze towers etc. are no good at the start, you need other guns first to benefit from the freezers. It helps to line guns up with the trees, so worms run straight through the guns with the apples. There are 3 strategies for dealing with towers being destroyed: 1) kill the worms quicker, which involves using a better combination of turrets for the level you're at. 2) use cannon fodder, weak turrets like handgun circling your better turrets. 3) lots of upgraded repair towers. The game requires an evolving strategy that changes as the game progresses.

More strategies: blizzard and the freeze towers slow the enemies down, giving you more time to kill the enemies using your other guns. They do nothing on their own. The flame thrower (from the fire catapult) can easily kill worms when placed in line with your apple trees and backed up by something that freezes, but you need to be able to survive to get to that point and as you've found rockets and some of the other turrets are good for that. The fireball towers do shoot randomly, but can be quite effective once you have lots of them, and they are relatively cheap to build. Also, damage depends on more than just the number - some guns have explosive damage and hurt multiple worms. Others like fire travel through worms and hit them multiple times.

SelfStudy: I did, they're equally destructable by things that KILL IT IN ONE HIT. Or did you miss the fact that all of them were DESTROYED FIRST?!?
To quote myself:
*"They come up and rape my repair towers"*
BTW, I was told by the dev to try out some of the towers I'd missed. I still favor the gatling gun and the missile launcher over EVERY OTHER WEAPON. Shame they can't kill bosses in anything resembling "faster than they kill me." Oh wait, they do twice the damage I do and have 10 times the hit points, gee...I wonder why I lose...

good towers currently are gatling gun, Tomahawk (build on the bottom away from worms uasaly path), Froze, Poison Gas (i dont care that they have no upgrades, use them to defend your other towers), electric shock, Flamethrowers are probably the best tower in the game, its also might be worth while to build one blizzard tower and one chain lighting.
the problem is all the other towers are pretty worthless.
