    For the issues with sound, I suggest the following:
    For any tower of type X that is actively shooting, play Sound X. Have a Sound X' that is louder/crowded sounding for when a certain number or higher are going.

    For 4 types of towers, that would only require 8 samples and at max 4 diff sounds going at once. Then you won't have the noise problem or the slowdown.

    Oh my god. I just love this game. It is unbelievable polished. Everything is right in this game. It's so much fun.

    I beat the first two levels each on my second try. Hard kills me at level 40 ;).

    I'm hopin for new maps. It would be nice to have terrain to help your strategy instead of just the towers. Whatever it is it will be cool. Fieldrunners is one of my favorite games.

    Or a way to block or redirect the helicopters!!!

    As far as strategies go, is it worth upgrading towers, or try placing as many as possible..?

    I usually try to get a pretty good maze down, THEN try to upgrade, but It's hard to tell if upgrading really does anything

    Well, upgrades usually double, then triple the damage done. So if you think about it, a single lightning tower upgraded to full power does the same damage as 3 level 1 lightning towers. 3 level 1 towers would cost 210, and a single full power tower would cost you 170.

    So the general idea is to upgrade like crazy once you have a basic maze that works. Don't keep buying more level 1 towers if you have anything else that needs upgrading at that point. :D

    There is only 1 new map as far as I know in the update (v1.1). It will contain new towers and runners and also have sound. The v1.2 update is also being worked on and last time we checked, it was at 50% completed so hopefully that won't be too far in the future.
