    The new map was quite interesting with two objectives to defend. It was easy though, with no aerial enemies. Is it intentional?

    Which game mode are you referring to? Normal is intended for more casual players who are looking for a fairly stress free experience.

    I'd suggest getting stuck in with nightmare mode. There are more multi-objective maps coming and they will get progressively more difficult :)

    Of course I am talking about nightmare mode. You don’t recognize me? That’s sad.

    Haha of course I recognise you @Jstorm !

    Did you manage to complete nightmare first time? Balancing is a very delicate process as we've got such a broad skill level. Based on beta testing feedback I did think we had found a sweet spot for all game modes.

    Have you tried to complete any of the new achievements?

    I think ultimately what we need is a special ultra nightmare mode where all spawnlings get replaced by goliaths?

    Seriously though... when we have released all of the aftermath missions a "super nightmare" type mode would be something I'd like to explore maybe just for the aftermath missions.

    Finished both hard and nightmare on the first attempt.

    I see only 1 new achievement that I haven’t finished, aside from calling waves early, which is flamethrower only on prison. I haven’t beaten it yet. I guess it comes down to when to use shield & air strike to deal with air units. Also, is the base turret allowed for the achievement?

    Congratulations on first time completion!

    For the flame turret achievement you can still use the command centre pop-up machine gun. Timing your airstrikes and tactical drone will be key then command centre machine gun can pick off the rest. It's my favourite achievement so far.

    In one of the next updates we will be adding XP rewards for achievements.

    The experience cap will be going all the way up to 100 with additional exalted awards and more complex achievements to complete.

    Favorite TD game, although I still haven't finished it (currently playing missions in hard difficulty; Lv.42). It's very nice seeing balance, support and content updates still coming.

    I haven't played this in a while, but I checked and latest version is from two weeks ago (1.99.66). I'm running it on a regular iPotato 8 (iOS 16.7.5).

    Apologies it was a typo on my part. That is the correct version.

    It seems as though someone has "1.99.101" on their mind. Maybe some work in progress, hmm?

    (¬‿¬)

    Haha, it's ok; I was just a little worried for a second because it was taking "too long" for that version to show up under my available updates list.

    Btw, we need a sequel (I'm almost done with OG missions on regular and hard difficulty)!

    ・‿・

    Edit: They made the jump to ver. 2.00.67
