A few general tips:
It is always more efficient to upgrade an existing weapon than to build a new one. So always build one, max it, build the next, max that, etc.
Plasmas are the only weapons you need after level 1 until you finish level 9 (10+ you need to use Phantomsleds strategy). Just make sure you set all guns after the first two to Random so you don't waste lots of shots on already dead enemies.
Weapons unlock as you complete levels. You don't have to "do" anything to get them but keep winning levels.

Recycle determines the amount of money gained after every enemy destroyed.

Not bad, needs some balancing though. Could also use some in-game mouse-over details on things, it would be nice to know what each weapon and upgrade does. I still have no idea what unlocks the weapons. One minute 3 of the 4 were locked, the next they were all unlocked. Not sure exactly what I did to unlock them. Just could use some more transparency. Nice design and has potential. 3/5
