I also use GIMP. GIMP is great since you can do pixel art with or draw with wacom tablet. No need to learn to use different programs for that. While working with GIMP I use .xcf since it supports layering but when I need to get 2D art to game PNG is superior. It is lossless and support alpha channel. Alpha channel can be uses also for partial transparency which is useful when creating special effects for games.
I feel that game is now much more strict amount of gold is gained. I did not have any gold spare to upgrade units. I feel that I am forced to buy just archers and footman since there isn't enough gold to try out different units.
Forest map caused me to change a tactic a bit. I think creeps could be even more difficult on later levels. Especially now that there is this upgrade and sell feature.
You could probably draw two different colors as shown in essay-tiles and then paint the textures there. It might not look pretty but could do the trick...
Great game, I got through all three levels. Do you have plans to make this game as a standalone with no need to use a browser? I really liked that bats had different kind of path and other creatures since that added a bit more challenge to the game.
Yay, I got first victory from level Arena! I am not sure if spearman is worth of 150 gp since I think archer is much more effective due longer range. Spearman could be between footman and archer around 75 gp.

Cool song! Makes me want to play Deus Ex!
Wave 24 bats are very durable I had almost whole center full of archers and they just flew over them...

I did quick example with GIMP. If you need to change textures just use the empty one and paint what ever textures you want to use.

Sorry, I do know how to make standalone Javascript. One idea could be combine creeps into same wave. For example spiders and bats.
