When you think of a tower defense game, undoubtedly you will think of the Bloons TD series. No other tower defense game stacks up to Bloons and its for good reason. Awesome art, amazing gameplay, and tons of interesting combinations of tower upgrades and synergies. However, that does not mean the game is perfect.
My largest gripe with the game is that there is almost no balancing of the Heros. Some heros feel severely underpowered and like they don't have any place in the meta. The best example of this is Striker Jones. Hes "good" at what he does but the support role that he plays isnt really as useful as say Obin. He can only give two towers the buffs when it really should be any tower that shoots an explosive.

Aside from balancing changes, its an amazing game 10/10 recommend.

Super fun game that is very reminiscent of DOOM and thats honestly its whole appeal. The movement is what I like most about the game, very cool and fast paced that lends well to the somewhat first person bullet hell.

Changes Id suggest:
1) Add an arcade mode (what is currently implimented) and a "Story mode". Something that can be speed ran
2) When you destroy an enemy, cut down on the particles that fly off of them to help with lag and visibility of other enemy's walking through the particles
3) More room designs. I understand that the game is free and pretty new, but adding more rooms would make the game feel less repetitive.
4) Let the player know when they got something good. When a legendary gun is picked up do something different with that gun whether it be sounds or what-have-you to make it feel more special and impactful

Im really looking forward towards new updates and seeing how the game progresses!

Ok, mom, firstly, you need to understand that this isn't porn, all right? It's called "hentai". Yes, that's a Japanese phrase, I'm learning Japanese from these videos. Before I get to the part about learning Japanese, though, let me first comment on the cultural implications of hentai. After the second world war, which Japan lost after the nuclear bombs were dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the entire country underwent a period of self-reflection and soul-searching. They wanted to understand how events led to the rest of the world responding with such devastating atomic attacks. This led to a strong antipathy towards war-mongering and international aggression. You may have heard about how the Japanese constitution doesn't allow the country to have an active military. Same idea. A lot of post-war Japanese culture is a reflection of such attitudes. For example, the Godzilla movies are not just about giant monsters fighting each other. They're about the horrors of unbridled atomic technology (Godzilla's always depicted as being powered by or healed by nuclear power), and how such a terrifying force can never be allowed to be unleashed on humanity again. On a similar note, Japanese animation enjoyed a resurgence of popularity after the war, due to the populace choosing to turn towards the comforting images of their youth. Japanese kids, much like kids in our country, like to watch cartoons. As a result, psychologically speaking, cartoons represent a reminder of a simpler and more innocent age. This upsurge in popularity resulted in animated images pervading almost all of Japanese culture: from movies, to television, to advertising, to music videos, and so on and so forth. And because animated images were so widely accepted throughout Japan, they were used for almost every type of source material, or to tell any type of story. Animation was no longer the sole domain of children. You got animated movies that told very mature stories, like Ghost in the Machine or Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind. Sometimes you get stories that involve very mature topics, like war, or murder, or rape, or torture. The Japanese have generally become quite accustomed seeing depictions of such things in their animations. So yeah, that's why I was watching this movie. It's an epic tale about a space crew exploring a distant planet (the crew's all female, because Japan's very into gender equality), and they run into a hostile alien, with a bunch of tentacles... and... well... I don't want to spoil the story for you, but let's just say the crew eventually figure out how to get along with the alien. It's a story about bridging cultural gaps and finding common ground. Seriously, it's worth watching. Ok, next, you remember how I talked about knowing Japanese words and phrases now? It's because these movies are subtitled in English, so I can learn Japanese while watching them. I mean, I know words like yamete, and iie, and iigu, and lots of others. Much better than just knowing konichiwa, isn't it? I mean, I'm developing such an interest in hentai that I might just major in Japanese when I'm in college. Who knows, I might be the one writing the subtitles in the future. Oh, and one last thing, you should know that hentai's considered pretty mainstream in Japan now, and it's also quite common in the western world too now. Everyone's watching it. I mean, if I don't watch it, I'll be seen as some sort of freak at school. You don't want your son to be some kind of pariah because he doesn't watch hentai, do you?

Generally a good game except for the implementation of "Trust Factor". I haven't done anything to deserve a low trust except for get reported for being better than the people I play against and they think i'm cheating. Could be a great game but this feature kills the game for me because i'm stuck playing against cheaters and smurfs every game. Another Problem with this feature is that when you complain about how broken Trust Factor is, everyone attacks you saying that you obviously did something to deserve it when you know you didn't. There aren't any clear ways to help fix your trust so it makes it impossible to try to improve it and make the game more enjoyable. CS:GO without trust factor would probably be ~8/10 for me, but once it was added it dropped to ~5/10 because I face cheaters every other game despite me having a Prime account (Literally faced a spinner a day ago).
