Casual of the Day: from the Collective

Colors!

The casual of the day is yet another entry into the tower defense genre, but I think it is a highly refined one. It’s called Flash Element TD2 from the Casual Collective. Casual Collective is famous for the original Desktop Tower Defense, but I personally prefer this more colorful game with pre-determined tracks. The principle is the same; the monsters come, you build towers to kill them.

Thank me later.

20 Nov 2008 ~ 1:59am pigflipper I lost entirely too much time today to this game.
20 Nov 2008 ~ 12:18pm WagsFTW That was a fun game! Very addicting. I completed level 27, and had a score of 7532. Not sure if that's good. I might be playing it again... kill those little monsters!
20 Nov 2008 ~ 3:09pm CB I like that this one combines paying to upgrade and XP. It's also very clean, visually. Good find.
20 Nov 2008 ~ 7:10pm Sliquid ugh. i'm stil playing the gemcraft one. :P
20 Nov 2008 ~ 7:16pm primesuspect Thank me later.
20 Nov 2008 ~ 8:09pm Thrax I got to level 37.
20 Nov 2008 ~ 9:09pm primesuspect On which map are you guys quoting level #s from?
20 Nov 2008 ~ 9:56pm GHoosdum I got to level 42. The Level 41 boss escaped with only a pixel of health and it infuriated me, because I lost his $480 bounty.

//edit: I beat it. Was able to recover after level 42 and kill all 5 bosses at the last level.
20 Nov 2008 ~ 11:00pm QCH What difficulty are you guys on? I massively beat the easy level... On to the next difficulty level.
20 Nov 2008 ~ 11:38pm primesuspect I beat easy, and got to 44 on medium... ugh.
20 Nov 2008 ~ 11:49pm CB I lost to the five bosses on the last level of easy. I found that one I wasn't able to kill one entire mob of\ creeps, I could never recover. That lost money was too much, and it snowballed.
23 Nov 2008 ~ 10:34pm QCH My first attempt at Medium lvl....
26 Nov 2008 ~ 10:27pm QCH The best I could do.... Level 56 and 26,000 points.
