It would be helpful if it also said somewhere on the screen what level you are playing and what mode you're on. It would also be nice to be able to play the next level in the same mode, or play the same level in a different mode, without having to go through all of the options.

I think there is a bug at the start, it won't let me skip the tutoiral and two screens in I can't get past next. I reloaded and tried to next through it all, same results.

I'm on the new Kong Layout, trying to find bug report, accidently flagged this game. http://i46.tinypic.com/69q6vn.png t activate.

I feel like we shouldn't be awarded with bubbles for advancing the next wave early, but increase score instead. You can simply do five waves or so at a time completely okay (especially with splash damage), and finish most levels very quickly by just advancing waves aggressively. That's my experience playing the game, at least.

When the hover display is active on a tower, you can click the little minus sign in the lower left of the pop-up display to minimize the extra window. Then when you click on a tower, there will be a little plus sign; you can use this to expand the pop-up window should you need to refocus a tower.

I absolutely LOVE the Bubble TD games, so I was really ramped up for this one, but I'm having the worst possible time clicking on things in this game for some reason. Just clicking on the Place Tower button, I have to hit that large button in just the right spot for it to register, and sometimes the windows that show what range you want the tower to fire at won't go away when you click on them either, making it difficult to play when the action is going.

Some minor things:
1: The towers don't always respect your target setting - it is dead annoying to have snipers in the back that are set to pick off anything that slips past initial defense, and instead of targeting creeps at the exit, they keep firing almost at random.
2: I have encountered some sort of bug that will not let me play "Over and Out" on normal mode. Every time I try, it takes me back to easy.
3: Hotkey for sending waves early! How can you not have one? Muy importante.

@xSouLx Yeah... Because this is a type of tower defense. Notice how similar games that are similar to each other are normally similar? It tends to happen.

ive beat it allthr lrvrls and i love buble tanks a hintis time goes by the same it doesnt speed upsospeedup button good idea

Yup, it is a bug: when any projectile is flying towards enemy unit, this unit is ignored by AoE towers (the just don't hit those units).
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
Yup AoE towers are still overpowered.
Probably a bug: when i built second mega mega tower (mix of all non-booster tower types) My main AoE tower stopped attacking at all (died at ~600 wave).

Boringly easy. Just drop a burst turret at the back for any mode without Ghosts and spam the waves until you launch all of them and then upgrade your burst turret to max and drop another right next to it. Keep upgrading as you get money and use your damage/fire rate boosts right away. Instant win. Boring.

Yet another Tower Defense game, not to necessarily say anything negative about this one in particular, just that almost everything in the genre that can be done, has been done.
On another note; a mixing of genre's could go pretty well, I would be interested to see a well-done point-and-click horror Tower Defense game with a text interface and creepy obscure notes popping up that didn't fail to deliver at the end of the story...

Favorited and 5/5 before the game stopped loading. 1 week later and I know I chose right. Epic TD game. Still the ever present ghost bug but I'm not complaining. What does efficiency mode do in settings?

Not sure if Flash issue or not, but I had my mega-mega tower just setup, firing and pulsing away killing anything quickly...and this managed to crash Flash player. Basically put on Survival mode, got my technique set up, got to where I wanted to be...then the game crashed. D'oh!

When you kill enough enemies at the same time, especially in one spot, the explosion graphic (which can look almost like a full filled in circle with enough enemies) and the lingering plus counts can severely slow down the game. It would be awesome if the game would limit the number of these shown at one time to a sane amount and make the gameplay smoother for those of us who like to make four badass mega mega towers and advance a few hundred waves on survival. ;)
BTW, wave 666 was cursed. Pure evil.

There are a number of bugs and issues. None of them super-problematic for the game, but all of them annoying enough to add up to a pretty severe detraction from the game. There are a bunch of buttons that don't seem to do anything. No speed up button. You can easily ace any level by releasing all waves at once and quickly using the points to level up a bunch of towers. You aren't kept in the same difficulty setting when you progress to the next level. At least one level (third of the open maps) won't let you complete it in some difficulties (I open it in "normal" mode, but when I actually play, it's on easy, and I don't get the Normal XP.) I love this game, still, and I'm super happy that there are no "juggling required" levels. I just think it could be even better.

Another bug: when i select to play the open map down and over on normal difficulty it always gives me the easy game, i cant advance through the levels because of this i love the bubble tanks series but i feel like this installment is missing alot :/

All the criticism, and no one mentions the music..
This is the only flash game I have not instantly muted the music on. This is a step in the right direction for flash game music. Thank you.

Minor problem: when you send a wave, it looks like the tower you had selected stays selected, but it doesn't. I've dropped a juggle SO many times now because the S key suddenly "stopped working," only to realize I lost mouse focus on the tower when I sent a wave.

The area burst towers need a major nerf. Majority of maps can be beat by creating a 2x2 box towards the center of the map with a ground area burst, anti-ghost area burst, speed boost, and power boost. Minimal mazing needed around the box. Completed several maps with less than 10 towers w/o juggling, sending every wave right away. Only mode that needs some juggling with this strategy is boss mode. Made it to wave 1400 in survival with 4 mega-mega towers of the above mentioned towers. I quit, b/c nothing was making it on the screen b4 being killed.

This strategy can be used in almost levels:
- Build an area burst tower and upgrade it three times (only upgrade to an area burst). If the money is not enough, call in a few more waves. The area burst 3 should be able to handle early waves of enemies.
- Surround the area burst tower with one of each booster. Upgrade any of them when you have enough money. Do not hesitate to call in 10++ waves for more and more money.
- Build an anti-ghost when needed. Those ghosts are too weak. Build it next to the built booster for an advantage.

Pretty imbalanced imo, I've cleared all difficulty on all open space levels with only AoEs and Boosters, on survival I reached 800 waves before dieing because I sold my only ghost-killing tower... Right now I have a tower that hits the whole screen for 3.44m damages with a reload of 4 (because it can't show lower apparently, but let's say it hits ~5 times per seconds, and it's in fact much more than that). That basically means 17m damages/sec, with a path of let's say 5s, I can easily kill anything that has less than 85m hp... Even on wave ~900, bosses have ~3m hp. Meaning that I could probably last until wave 5000 at least, and I'm not even using items (which are worthless right now anyway).
Other useful things would be speed up, the bugfix mentioned by Gedge, highscores and completing X difficulty also completes the lower. (Additionally, I'd like to be able to play the extended modes on a map without completing it on the previous one...)
Otherwise, good game

There seems to be a minor issue with achievements. I just did a survival mode up past wave 400, was told I'd earned the Survival - Holy Hell achievement, but when I look at my achievements, it's still blacked out, along with the one prior to it (Survival - Badass). Other than that, I love this one better than the previous. All the different modes makes it pretty easy to get lost playing it trying to beat all the levels! (The music gets old, though.)

i feel like this is the one TD where u're supposed to summon every wave right off the bat, use the massive bubble bonus from early summons to full upgrade burst towers, then sit back and win.
