Ok, so based on the comments I realized that not having a “win” or “lose” condition at this point was not working. Well, fear not my friends, I have fixed the situation and now you can lose or win depending on how you play the game now. Yay!

Having a win/lose condition at this point is no good if you don’t know how anything else works. Therefore, If you haven’t read How to build a tower defense flash game – Part 9 - Scores and Wave Timeline! you should go back and read it before you continue. [...]

Wow, the last article was intense - How can I possibly beat that? Oh, I think I can come up with an idea, um, how about tower powers?! You know that thing that makes the towers placed unique.
