To put it bluntly: this game only really works as a joke to Bloons fans, because as a pure Tower Defense game, it isn't fleshed out enough, not balanced enough, and it just hammers on clichés which are getting old very, very quickly. The mathematics of the game just aren't good enough: winning the game is just a matter of filling up the screen with un-upgraded dart towers. The higher towers AND the upgrades just aren't worth the time and cost. It just doesn't cut it, but the IDEA of making a Tower Defense game out of the Bloons concept is very funny and clever. Perhaps the parody element could have been worked on more. As it is, it gets only two stars from me.

this game is too easy. i suggest you to make different levels like easy, medium and hard, and maybe some other mode too. overall the game idea is awsome

Start reading my comment here and read down!
Its needs a complete over haul imo. not only is the range shown when you click on a monkey tower inaccurate. but the way the balloons come out also aren't in combination that are good enough to require the user to use a variety of towers to defeat the game.

Adding new bloons into the game should be done tastefully but should ultimately be related to the other bloon popping fun series. This will keep make sure the game has it own originality. the pink 8 dart tower inst worth its cost, and the comments that pop up before each level even though they are a good guess as to how I got this far or, about what towers, but they are entirely wrong, and annoying to read because of it.
The towers you have to choose from are not enough, and we are missing the tri-dart upgrade, the dropping spike ball, the lightsaber, the pac-man, and the boomerang.

I've made many a td game before, using wc3 world editor and I have a lot of ides how to put those towers into affect if thats a problem.
DtD pales in comparison to the potential that this games has in becoming. I recommends making levels auto start after 30 seconds and allowing for more gold to be released from the bloons, which is one of the MAIN issues in this game is that if you don't mass the cheap towers first you wont be able to get enough gold to purchase the other towers.
the freeze and bomb tower shouldn't be made "higher level towers, but instead specialty towers that can be made into higher level towers. this balances the game out.

So normal towers monkey, tack, and super monkey towers are the normal popping towers with their own individual upgrades, and the specialty towers are the ice, bomb, and mud tower (this tower is modeled after the brown blocks that stop your arrows from moving I think it should slow movement and prevent the monkeys piercing attack from piercing just like in the original games.)
and then you have your ultimate towers
which would be The light saber, the spike ball, and the pac man which do high level damage right away and have high aoe, or great line damage. the can potentially kill a balloon twice as it begins to shrink in its size.

which brings em to my 12th point allowing a higher level bloon that yellow, like the orange bloon or something that although its slightly slower than a yellow tower can actually take a hit or two before splitting into two yellow balloons. these would be very deadly if they were able to get near the end of the maze and turn into the ultra fast yellow towers, which could sprint to the end.
anyway just make sure you stay true to your other games and everything will be fine i think. I have lots of suggestions that I would love to...suggest! -phatcat

All in all it was a fun game the only thing I think it needs is a pause button. I cant stop it when I am playing at work and my boss comes in.

Great game. Love TDs. Love bloons. Perfect combination. I would recommend some kind of scoring system. Maybe total bloons destroyed minus penalty for lives lost with a bonus for fewer "towers" deployed. I also dislike in any game (especially TDs) a level limit. If I spend half an hour setting up the perfect "tower defense" I want to test it till it breaks. Maybe toss in an occational "boss" bloon after lvl 50. Maybe an iced one that moves and has to be repeatedly hit by bombs to be destroyed. Here are two more suggestions for future bloon types in the game. 1) To help the player add a pink dart bloon type that releases eight darts of it's own when destroyed. 2) To help the computer add a dark blue laser bloon that destroys the first tower it manages to get near. As others have said, maybe add a hard level (and especially make the Super Monkey more expensive as once you got him the game is pretty much over).

That's a picture of me defeating the last bloons. I only used Dart Towers and no upgrades...
Nice game, I'd like more bloons such as a bouncy which can only be defeated by a bomb.

each pop is a gold, chosen one.
btw: i'm dart-onlying this game atm.. it works for now, but i'm only half way through
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
I think the difficulty is fine, it aint DTD but its a nice attempt at a TD game.
Maybe make this game mode normal and leave it like it is and add a hard mode.
I do think the gold should scale up a bit more.
And the baloons take more lives if they are higher lvl but do they also give more gold? 1-2-3-4 etc?

Really fun take on the Tower Defense game... but yes, this needs an achievement. "Congratulations" after all that effort is just too underwhelming.

Vry fun game. Love the iea of a Bloons twer defense game. Took me 3 times to win but I had 28 lives left. 36 maxed out Monkeys, 1 maxed out Super Monkey, 1 maxed out Tac thig and 1 maxed out Bomb thing.

Good game... could benefit from different gameplay modes and some tweaking of the towers... also, if possible, the speed really needs work. It becomes VERY slow in later levels (even on a dual core system).

Beat it all the way through without losing a single life 2 times. Almost made me want to make a guide for the people who can't stay alive to long.

people please stop calling DTD the original tower defense it WASNT there were plenty that existed before dtd both in flash form, WC3 and starcraft......give respect where respect is do.

Way too simplified in my opinion, and rather easy too. but on the positive, it's stable, and doesn't lag till absurd number of monkeys... (more fun than..)

First, this game is wicked easy, I beat it with 27 lives, and it also just seems to me like it's just another attempt to make another game off of one good game. In other words, I think you would've been better off with just having the original Bloons, but that's just my opinion. And since I can see that you have put a decent amount of work into this, I'll give you three stars instead of one. =)

i disagree this one is much more easier i got to level 36 i couldnt get past the second boss or something after that on DTD good job on this one 5/5

I can get only as far as wave 4. I think stabbing myself in the face would be more efficient and fun for everyone involved.
