Thanks for trying it - I am slowly pulling things out - but I think shooting while in tower mode can work - its got a lot of issues - yes but im not yet willing to concede it - going to continue to explore that front.
Visual clutter is a big issue for sure - im slowly lowering the total number monsters, and resource nodes on the screen, and pulling back the visuals on auto attacks to try to mitigate it some - its still too busy but is slowly getting more clear. The point on moving objects should only really be a threat is good I had not really thought about that yet.
Going to disable screenshake by default - a lot of people seem to not like it
Thanks again appreciate you giving it a spin and writing up your thoughts.
