Recently, I’ve been testing out tower defense mechanics, and my past tests didn’t work, but, using @Kiwiphoenix364’s [targeting extension](https://forum.makecode.com/t/tower-defense-first-targeting-extension/12176) (and a lot of other extensions), I managed to make this game!

There are 20 waves, and… 13… enemies…? Okay, I don’t remember how many enemies there are. There’s only one type of tower, but you can upgrade the towers. Again, this is my first tower defense game, so you can expect for there to be a few glitches.

Also you should set score to what wave it is before you die so it tells you what wave you died on instead of how much cash you got left.

Because of the movement system I used, the cursor will go out of bounds. Unfortunately, that’s not something I can fix. (At least not easily.) As for the damage upgrades, I could add those in, but I thought that the game was already at a good difficulty level, and adding in damage upgrades would make it too easy. I’m really glad you like the game though!

P.S. How far have you made it? Did you complete the game, and if not, what wave were you on?

Well… I suppose that’s one way to beat the game… 😆

Wow, 355 clicks!? Are a bunch of people playing this or is this the same weird anomaly as with Oregon Trail? 🫠
