The author is still mucking about with this game, which keeps changing the highest posible score. While playing today, he added one more level. That means one more level of interest, which can really change your ending score.
For example…

I got this and thought: Wow! I more than doubled my previous best!
And I made the high score list!

But if you look at those times, you’ll see that not one of them is more than an hour old. I was just lucky in that I took my lunch beak just as the new version went up. I’m sure it will be gone by the time I knock off work today.
What a silly, addictive game.
The Terrible New Thing

Fidget spinners are ruining education! We need to... oh, never mind the fad is over. This is not the first time we've had a dumb moral panic.
Rage 2

The game was a dud, and I'm convinced a big part of that is due to the way the game leaned into its story. Its terrible, cringe-inducing story.
Programming Language for Games

Game developer Jon Blow is making a programming language just for games. Why is he doing this, and what will it mean for game development?
Ludonarrative Dissonance

What is this silly word, why did some people get so irritated by it, and why did it fall out of use?
Lost Laughs in Leisure Suit Larry

Why was this classic adventure game so funny in the 80's, and why did it stop being funny?
I just made #96 on the high-score list with 40,408. It looks you fall out of the list after an hour.
Top score currently over 160k…
Apparently, I’m not very good at this game. I can beat level 39, but my highest score has been less than 6000. It is ridiculously addictive, though.
my strategy is when i finaly get 21lvl i sell all towers and buy rocket towers and upgrade them but i cant beat 39 lvl why? i dont have to much money why ?
I do the same as you smoke, but make sure you have water towers to slow them down, it helps. and buy then upgrade, since upgrade is more effective then buy buy buy, up up up.
