Camo: pass by enemies unseen
Zappelin: a gigantic very slow enemy that contains 4 mini-zeppelins. chain spawns enemies on death

Encounters:

Boss Coverage: enemy sequence 3-9 mini enemies with 1 hp in front to absorb the heavy hitting towers and put their attacks on cooldown, followed by bosses that don't die. Thus the mini enemies job is cover the bosses. Your job is to learn this pattern and build against it.

Upgrades:

Sniper: infinite range, can attack from everywhere, limitation on how fast it kills, weak vs fast / many.
Triple Shot: Fires 3 shots instead one.
Depleted Bloontonium Darts: specially modified darts that can hurt any bloon type.
Powerful Darts: shoot with greater velocity [affects not tower attack speed, but missle speed]
Impact: enemes become stunned for a short time when they are hit

Boomerang: Throws a boomerang that does aoe damage and returns back. Circular attack pattern.
Shuriken: Fires in a straight line piercing all enemies and striking everything behind them.
Distraction: enemies struct will become distracted and move the wrong way temporarily [they move backwards instead of forwards, = like a mini teleport, so from a balance perspective its like granting allied towers few extra attacks of opportunity per wave or extra range, maybe viable vs a delay point with lots of freeze towers].
Glue Tower: Slows enemy.
Bloon Dissolver: contains an extreme solvent that melts bloons. [should be armor/resistance debuff]
Glue Splatter: instead of glueing 1 bloon at a time, splatters 6 bloons at a time.
Corrosive Glue: Makes glue pop bloons every few seconds while glued [like poison]
Stickier Glue: Makes glue effect last much longer.
Dartling Gun: machine gun, super fast, but not very accurate, every 3rd hit will be a stray one that will miss i.e fire it a little upwards and will most likely miss. The dartling gun will shoot towards wherever your mouse is, so you control how effective it is! [which means that you can have only 1 per map because it requires your manual control]
Focused Firing: Greatly reduces the spread of the gun [before it could fire stray hits]
Tack Shooter: Shoots 8 tacks spread in all directions, each tack can pop 1 bloon, has short range and medium-slow fire rate. [Every pulse does aoe damage, slow attack speed, like immolate]

Spike Factory: Generates piles of road spikes on bits of nearby track, each pile can pop 5 bloons, and unused spikes disappear at the end of the round. [Balance: treat as sniper tower = infinite range to activate, but requires time to build up i.e prefer to place towards end of map]

Gameplay:

Level Design: There are maps with multiple entrances and exits. This makes the level harder, enemy path is unpredictable, tower placement is vital, as your towers may miss some of the enemies because you dont know from where they will come/leave. You cant just stack all your towers on one spot, enemies will choose the other way instead
Micromanagement: Ability to define if a tower attacks vs [First Target] or [Last Target]. Usually towers attack the same target and some shots get wasted so with this optimization you can make enemies become more sparse, i.e instead of fighting a "continuous line" of enemies you convert them into line where there is a gap between every enemy
Skillshot Attacks: most towers attack with skillshots, thus have the potential to hit more than 1 enemy if carefully placed
Reverse Dungeon: enemies come from [dungeon exit] instead of [dungeon entrance], so you play the dungeon in the reversed order. [idea: reversed floors/ceiling like castlevania]
