Flash Onslaught.

What did you do this weekend? I played Onslaught a mildly addictive, protect your base using upgradeable towers, flash game. Basic manual, extra detail FAQ and unlimited^* money sandbox version.

Not a bad TD variant. I especially like the ability to upgrade certain elements of a tower, like fire rate. Nice touch.

Once you've upgraded the red turrets enough, they have a holding pattern, and missles are constantly kept in the air.
Game kinda plays itself at that point...

I went to the National Building Museum. Thanks for asking! I'm glad you had fun, too.

No sound for me. Did I just kill a bunch of printer icons?

Great little game. Thanks!

The game doesn't support sound, considering the destruction once you get above 100 that's probably a feature.
