So Paul and Dave over at handdrawngames / novelconcepts have released two new versions of DTD in the last couple of weeks. RumblePool already established the addictive nature of the game (along with tens of thousands of other websites…. but hell we all beat the Wall Street Journal).

The 1.5 version of the game adds these new little nasty creeps best describes as even nastier, but top down viewed versions of Mario’s Buzzy Beetle.

Impervious to fire under a three upgrade tower these things prove to be a stiff kick in the nads for a 1.0 user. In addition it seemed to me that the creeps have a tendency to stay further out of tower fire when the opportunity presents itself… a nasty occurrence for someone who was using the same map for all of 1.0 ( I AM TALKING ABOUT MYSELF HERE). Besides these horrible changes, that no longer allow me to dominate my office workers, the game is pretty much the same….. oooooooh I cant wait for 2.0.

In addition it seems that DTD has also picked up a sponsorship from Kongragate, a gaming portal with significant backing. Their model is about sharing revenue with developers through their site traffic.

Lets keep the RP DTD group names going with “RumblePool”
