Ok simon heres the solution - Dark creeps are immune to low level towers - or basically stuff that does little damage, you must have a decent tower to even think about killing them, and even then that damage is still reduced... so think high to survive...

I agree that this isn't a new game, but you've given so much business to Kongregate by making this game a Kon exclusive, I'm sure they won't mind. Here's to your second $1750

This is by far the best game on the site. If you re-invent it I will vote for it again and again. Would play again. A++++

I loved the original version. I do also love this one (which is more or less the same). But I completely agree with what was said below by NegativeONE and notorious: it is VERY UNFAIR that an updated version of a game should win a contest. I hope people in Kongregate take this into account.

Although I LOVE this game, gotta agree with Negative: seens kinda unfair to award a game thats just an updated version of an old one...

2 Things...
1) People have won the 10k Fun mode(100 levels)
2) The next version (Version 2.0) is going to be multi-player!!! I know this b/c I am a beta tester!

Whee. I can't deny that some of my bitterness comes from bumping my year's work out of the top spot with a barely rehashed version of this game. But in the bigger picture, it's moves like this that are dilluting the industry into carbon-copy commercialism. Hope the $1500 is worth it. As long as you don't care about the industry, I guess any amount is.

i think this new version is mcuh easier and mofre fun to play, you dont have to keep clicking on the tower you want again and again, and the fun and challenge modes are great.

I'm not sure if anyone could win the 10K mode without using a gate technique. I think this version is a great improvement. I'm looking forward to a larger field (in v.2), specific choices for the types of creeps, and air nets. What I'd REALLY like is a wall that falls on a segment. :) 5-stars! (The only 5-star I've ever given out.)

Skullmuffin: Smash tower is available in the medium and hard modes.
Agnate and GirlNextDoor: Direct quote from greg about this game... "In the developer’s defense, I specifically requested that he upload this version as a new game rather than an update. This one has a lot of improvements, but I think they’re different enough games to warrant it. Some may even prefer the original."

I liked the original game, but don't really agree with a re-release that has only minor changes. If you were going to release another game it should have at least 90% new enemies and weapon upgrades. I still like the game, but I will agree with Agnate that an original game should get a chance at winning a contest, not a re-release of an old one :S

Though I agree that this truly is a great game, I can't see why you would post this as a new game, when it is clearly just an upgrade from the old one.
So much for letting original releases win some of the contest money.

Love this game. A lot harder than the original, the dark creeps are very hard and although ink towers do lots of damage they rarely hit anything and are expensive =(
Good to hear the different noises, the 'Lemmings' sounds were kinda annoying!
7/5

great game
but
fairly simple
i only played 10k easy and normal mode
and all it takes is to use a bunch of pellet towers to maze and then upgrade fast(middle ones are best to upgrade)
but great game

After playing on hard, I found there were more towers added that were not in the medium setting. I really like the boost towers, they're one of my favorite towers from TD games. I still think the ink towers are fairly useless. I put money into getting on to the highest level, and it seemed to do very little compared to my squirt towers. Beef it up some (or the dark creeps) so its more useful/needed. But I do like the new additions to the game.

For the dark creeps, they have armor which is resistant to any low damage attacks, so you need to have a decently upgraded tower to be able to hurt them at all. Level 1 and 2 towers arent going to cut through it.

This was very fun, the Morphs always seemed to be able to get though my Typhoon maze... (They morph to suit the time E.G. if they are iced they will turn to immune if they need to rush they turn into speed etc.) the Darks were ok, just needed to freeze them! Because of their naturally slow speed the Blizzard tower almost puts them to a complete stop. I like the sounds of the creeps now much better then in the original. Awesome game! Brilliant preecep!

The darks are very interesting. So much firepower is wasted on them that it completely breaks my old maze. I need to restructure to take out the darks earlier.

I really like the score on the send next button to let us know what we'll get if we click it. Dark creeps don't really seem to add very much, I didn't use any ink towers and managed just fine on my first go through on medium. All in all, I don't really feel its so much of a step above the last version, but more of the same is obviously not too bad :p
