This is the last major update, lots has changed on the wave/enemy balancing so bear with me a little: v0.99/1.0 will be for the last balancing/polishing touches

A lot of effort has been spent on making each run as unique as possible with varied and interesting waves and no biome repetitions. Also the duration of the average run have been shortened: v0.97 runs were becoming a bit of a chore towards the final waves

There is some new content in this update but it is probably less than what you were looking for and I apologize if I gave wrong expectations: I thought I could do more with it but TD's dev cycle have been quite long and I felt it was more important to improve on the game strengths instead of adding things just for the sake of it and risk to ruin the game

Enough talking, changelog follows 👇

• Added Space Elevator

• Updated Space Station with the new heavy turrets
  
• When a structure is fully destroyed a random pickup will spawn: Extra Life, Extra Upgrade or Repair & Reload

• HUD updated accordingly

• You can now call for an upgrade as soon as the tech level increases: added new input mapping for it
  
• Reroll system replaced by a single reroll option that will work like any other upgrade: reason for this change is to make each run more unique and encourage different approaches
