addedTower DefenseWave 20 now has approximately 30% fewer enemies. This game mode had a particular difficulty spike at wave 20, due to having to eliminate all enemies in the path while dealing with the final boss at the same time, which could become too much. This doesn't happen that much in the other game modes since you don't need to defeat the final boss; just surviving until the timer ends counts as a win. Waves 21 onwards (endless mode) aren't affected by this.

Waves 21 onwards (endless mode) aren't affected by this.
