@destruckto: There is an exploitable factor in the game that allows you to instantly recharge the airstrike (and every other ability). Simply sell your airstrike building and buy a new one. Yes, this costs money, but sometimes it is very useful. It has saved me in many levels, and allowed me to get all perfects.

Really fun, but needs an endless or survival mode. The levels are good, but once you get all the unlocks except the perfects, the game is too easy. Also, airstrike needs to come faster, or they aren't effective for kills, and makes the missile turret to annoying to bother with.

The game is awesome. AA towers were very weak, but with the update, they got ok. But I have just only 1 complaint: Achieve perfect in all missions as an upgrade? This sucks. Hard. Who need more upgrades when you end the game?
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
This is one of the best tower defense games I've come accross next to the Gemcraft series. However once you start stacking recon and ammo stations and are past wave 35 of the later missions the game gets super easy. There needs to be more scalability in the creeps. The beginning of the levels are all fine. It's once you get enough cash to really sprawl out a really stout defense that it becomes almost pointless. Deff need to make waves past 35 on the last 10 missions or so considerably harder. 5/5 stars for me though. Good work!

For people having trouble, the absolute key to winning is the recycle centers. You MUST build recycle centers after level 12, or else you will run out of money. Once you have at least 3 centers, save up $2k to upgrade them to level 3. At level 3, the centers will generate money very quickly, and thats when the tide turns in your favor. Also, be careful when you use overdrive, as the base WILL take damage if it shoots.

Mission 15 seems bugged to get a perfect on. I have scored over 8600, let no one escape, gate still up and get a good rating not even an excelent. I have scored less on other missions much less and even let a few guys escape and got perfects. Anyone else having this problem?
Do you have repair station? If your base got damaged and then repaired it doesn't count as perfect. It should be excellent though... Sounds like a bug. Can you give me more info please?

hello everyone.I have passed all levels on perfect excluding level 18 and level 30 which i have passed on exellent.any advices what shall i do?
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
Not sure if its a glitch or whatever, but if you place a block, sell your structure, re-buy, and you can place another block.. Ive been doing this for the last few levels as i just have a surplus of money to use lol.. Makes it a little too easy
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
Calidron, make sure that you are completing all of the challenges. Its sometimes necessary to replay levels to get experience to level up your base and unlock new buildings and weapons. If you haven't already, make sure you do the recycling plant challenge as it starts you off with an extra $100 to begin with. This makes it MUCH easier. Secondly, make sure you do the challenge that allows your gates to auto heal. This can be the difference between getting perfect and not. If you can't see these challenges, go back and redo levels to get to the next rank. Make sure you go into a level knowing what you need to build to complete challenges. Once you get to the last few waves, build what you need like crazy and keep scrapping them to get your money back (recycling plants help with this, I generally build at least 3). I hope this helps.

As I said before, good job on the balance issues. The problem I'm having now is trying to get perfects on levels 20 and up. Anyone have any ideas? I've been at it for days and no joy. I'm back up against the "drop it out of frustration" wall.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
@zombinator, actually i prefer the method of not letting a single one escape cuz you get more cash that way, buold your anti air and upgrade them by build the wall structure. after that use sheild on your AA towers only, and place the recon beside your sheild to maximize its cover range and your AA towers. the land units can be taken care of with stun guns, mass mounted guns and some cannons/missile towers. ammo stations help too if you can build them
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
Great game - I like the challenge. One thing I am not so crazy about is the last achievement, it seems that once I beat everything on perfect it's too late to take advantage of the final powerup. Why not make it 25/30 or something so we get to use it that to help finish the game.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
Is it possible to put a way to stop the base from firing, when it attacks the units that rebound damage it makes it so that a perfect cannot be achieved
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
Not quite sure what the point is of having two challenges that require 100% perfection. Once you have 100% perfection, is there any further point to playing?
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
Okay, I give up -- I clearly have no idea what I'm doing. I've been playing level 13 for THREE DAYS. I wish I was exaggerating. Can someone, anyone, please tell me how you're supposed to beat this game? Or at least level 13?
I know the advice is "ignore air units" but the helicopters chew me up and spit me out. If I buy lasers and AA guns, I don't have enough money to defend the ground attack (like the shielded apocalypse tanks in wave 32).
A little help?
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
If my base shoots anything when overdrive is active, it will receive damage. And with this I cannot get perfect and excellent rating even when all gates are safe.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
@ Lurch, first of all, air units do not hit base, second, i think the reason you are not getting perfect might be related to how many air units you left escape. of course, i might be wrong about the second part, but you can start from the not letting any air units escape part and see if you can get that perfect score
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
I cannot get a perfect in lvl 18, the base is at the front, I think the air units are some how hitting it, by this stage in the game the enemies are not even getting half way to the first gate so I am not sure why I dont get the perfect
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
The air units come in from the opposite side, but they still spawn randomly on that side. When air drops can come in and their drop spot is right in front of them, they are impossible to defend against. It is really frustrating.

Support stations:
Shield: Perfect for gates
Comm: Expensive, not very necessary
Ammo: Nice, but not needed if you build strong combos
Recon: For jammers
Repair: Great combo with shields for gates and bases
Buildings:
Air support: Useful in early-middle game. Good for sneaky wall destroyers or speeders
Wall factory: Useful in whole game
Recycle plant: Best structure in game. Overpowered. Upgrade3= 99% victory
Research: Nice, but I only build this to get repair station
Weather center: Storm is very funny, but not necessary. Build if you want Emp Cannon upgrade3
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
Towers guide:
Basic towers:
Mounted gun: For early wavess, you are ok with upgrade2, upgrade3 isn't necessary
AntiAir: Early-middle waves, combine with stun gun
Cannon: Not necessary, use only if you need help with jammers
Missile towers: Very useful in early-middle game. Once you have tesla-emp missiles are weak
Tesla tower: A beast, easy to upgrade, use with stuns & emp . Brutal combo in middle-advanced game
Advanced towers:
Stun gun: Basic combo with any tower. Easy to upgrade, useful in whole game.
Irradiator: Nice tower for middle-advanced game, you need a few to get tesla
AntiAir Laser: Forget air enemies :)
Antishield Laser: Expensive and weak, i don't like this tower
EMP Cannon: Another Beast. Brutal combined with tesla and stun. Spam emp cannons everywhere

"Appear from the opposite direction of the base" my sweet Aunt Petunia. ;) Aside from that, your fixes have made the game playable, but still challenging. Thanks for listening! Love the game! Upgraded previous to a 4/5.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
I like the game. One of the better TD games. The air towers, they are fine... every game must have one "challange factor" and i think that are not so hard as some say.... ;)
If you think in a "Canyon defense 3" , try to innovate like this (if you want):
1) Observer tower: Like in "Epic Battle Fantasy 3" to know the stronger/weak Tower again enemy.
2) Statistics about the towers.
3) That is only one freak ideia.. but, can you "join" one Tower Defense Game + Risk Map + Atack Tower game (like when you defend you build towers, and when you atack a new territory you are in "the other side", try to destroy the base placing the units you have/can. Your objective will be conquer the continent. Like in risk game, have bonus when joint one continent, and like tower games will have achivements to up the towers, units, etc.
I don't think if is a good idea or not, but the 3 in 1 will be stupendous!!! think about it! say something please
But this game is 5 stars, hope gets badges.
Thanks!

I just finished level 27 with 117k cash. This game gets too easy in later waves... Maybe put a limit on recycle plants?
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
@fmfbrestel most of the upgrades record how many you have BUILT, not how many you OWN. Build/sell/build lets you reach a lot of unlocks, although it is basically bleeding money.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
now i feel like the guys from before. you can't STILL be complaining about the difficulty of this game after that update.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
Honestly, one of the better TD games I've played in quite some time. For those complaining about air defense... dont. Air enemies dont attack your home base, your homebase shoots them. You can throw 4-5 AA towers between the entry point and your towers and tear them apart. They're basically flying money. Humorously, the cannon tower...well... it sucks, a bit. okay against the jammer bosses, but otherwise, its pretty useless at least in the parts of the game i've played so far (only level 12). All in all, a lot of levels, achievement upgrade system implemented well, not too much luck-variance, nice difficulty curve. Over all, just a very well made game. I hope it gets badges.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
that game is very hard in the begining bt after you get cannons use them with stun guns and get enough aa up use recon station with the cannons
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
zombi: hard at first, but fairly doable now; on later levels you'll have the time to unlock stuff. Jammers: slow them down (stun or EMP) and nuke with cannons, or use recon stations to get enough range. Clusterbots: slowdown, then cannons/airstrikes for the small bots. Air isn't too hard now, just get enough AAs up in time; wall factory is useful anyway and boosts them. @Derkassierer: kill all enemies, preserve gates/base AND do as many unlocks as possible (60 is full) in a level; all perfect makes the latter much easier.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
This game is cool and ridiculously hard. Achievements-unlock-upgrades sucks. Why grind out 15 recycling centers when they require me to stockpile 1000 credits? How do I win if I'm not spending money? It sucks that it's useless to grind older levels, by and large. However, I have found that level 11 will work as a grind level if done right.
Further, it sucks that you have to do certain things in the actual level to unlock weapons and stations. Again: save 1000 credits. Or: build three Air Support Facilities. It would be something if the requirements were useful but who the hell needs three ASFs? Or: build 10 advanced towers. Those things are expensive and not worth having ten of for the most part, especially in early levels.
Anyway... I'm still playing it. But more out of stubbornness than anything else. Oh, and the hope that the bottleneck opens up and I can sandbox a bit instead barely getting by my creativity and spunk.
