Remember Desktop Tower Defense? I played it for a bit this weekend and it’s still great fun. One of the very best games from the Flash era.

One of my absolute favorites. I re-played it a few years back and it's still great. This game turned me into a lifelong tower defense addict -- the early Kingdom Rush ones are pretty great IMO, but a good, tight TD game is harder-to-find than one would think.
So good! Thanks in advance for the lost time this evening :)
Oh what a fun game. Nice old school esthetics. I love TD games, and yeah, so hard to find good ones.
I played Bloons more than this, and I’m not sure why. This has a gorgeous aesthetic, like it could have been an update of a hand drawn office game that took weeks to complete.
I remember when this first came out. My map design evolutions and juggling technique were honed so I was scoring in the range of the world records.
I’m honestly not sure how I kept my job and didn’t end up in a van down by the river.
