- The crazy 3D maps feel very fresh
- The 26 different towers are more than enough that every map feels different
- Each level has a goal of completing X number of waves, but after you've achieved that, you have the option of continuing in endless mode, which is great fun
- Having a player character that you can order around is a great addition to the genre
- The story is humorous and silly, but fits perfectly in with the character, level, and enemy design. I'm enjoying the story progress as I complete each level
- To give an idea of the creep and level design variety: I'm currently on a level that spawns a bunch of old-aged creeps "with dementia" (according to the lore). They wander around the map randomly, but get supercharged if they aren't killed before a timer is up. It's really forcing me to switch up my strategy and experiment with new towers.

A negative review is mentioning that "Enemies attack towers and can destroy them". It fails to mention that towers automatically repair in-between waves, that you have a special ability to instantly repair towers, that you can upgrade tower health, that you can build a repair drone, and that you can build a buff tower that increases repair speed. It never felt unfair or unfun that some enemies can attack the towers.

The same negative review also mentions that "you are punished for putting too many towers (you get less money the more towers you put on the map)", but this is a really well-designed mechanic as it produces an interesting trade-off between adding more towers or upgrading existing towers.

Overall, the game is really very solid. I think the music could be a little bit better, but that's a very small complaint.
