Garden Inventor: Tower Defense Game of the Week
« on: September 23, 2008, 11:54 PM »
Here's a very nice and nicely balanced tower defense game.  You must defend your garden from bugs.  Just a nice feel overall, with a series of different levels that you must complete in order to win the game.  Each level is a bit different.

I'd say the only real weakness of the game is that it plays a bit slow.  I'd love a "speed up" button.

Not sure where everyone else got in this game but I am totally stuck on level 11.  Anyone make it by 11?  What the trick?

I can't get the game to run. It loads and initializes but clicking "Start" or "Options" does nothing but make a click sound effect.

I've tried it in Firefox and IE and it just doesn't go.

I was stuck on level 9, then I discovered the use of Fountains.
I have been stuck on level 13 for a long time but just did pass.
Now it seems I'm stuck for good on Level 14.

The game misses some more advanced weapons, it is way too repeating.

I think I'm giving up on this one.  I had the screen filled with weapons all advanced a bit and still couldn't pass the level.  I then tried by selling weapons and maxing out weapons and failed.  I then used fountains and tried again and nothing.

Going on to the next one...
