==History==
The channel's first video was a trailer about their 2020 update, and later made a video stating their appreciation for anyone who voted their game for the 2021 . Their Twitter account was created almost 1 year after the channel's creation and the game was created 2 years after the channel's creation. One of Paradoxum Games's most popular updates were the Frost Invasion update and the Solar Eclipse update.
==April Fools Updates==
===April Fools 2020===
The game's first update was in 2020, since the game was created in June 2019. The game's April Fools update in 2020 was an updated called "Funny Faces", it included the faces Cyborg, Evil Smirk, Weird and Lol. The faces were put on random skins, the update got removed a day later.
===April Fools 2021===
This update included a badge called Suspicious and an enemy called Imposter, referencing to the game Among Us. Killing the Imposter in under a minute would reward the Suspicious badge, the update got removed a day later.
===April Fools 2022===
This update changed most of the tower's, unit's and enemy's faces to either the Man Face or the Woman Face. The Commander tower also became a furry and the dialogue heavily changed. The update lasted 2 days, as the update was released on March 31, 2022.
===April Fools 2023===
This update again, changed the Commander's dialogue to make it "translated", with a special modifier.
===April Fools 2024===
This update involved a whole new event, called Headache Headquarters. Which was an update referencing the meme Skibidi Toilet. There was a badge for winning the event, which is "dop dop yes yes". There is a modifier with the map that is called "Brain Rot", which increases the rewards by 50%. A bug occurred where you were not given the badge for beating the event, later, on the same day, the bug was patched. This April Fools update ended a week later, on April 8, 2024.
==Game modes==
===Easy Mode===
This mode is just like how it sounds, this is the easiest game mode in the game. There is no level requirement for this game mode, it has 25 waves, has a total of 17 enemies, and you can get one badge from beating this game mode. This mode was formerly called Normal Mode and Beginner's Mode, and people used to call this the hardest mode in the game.
===Molten Mode===
This mode is a balanced game mode, where it's not easy, yet not that hard either. There is also no level requirement for this mode, it has 40 waves, has a total of 20 enemies, and you could get two badges from this game mode, now you can only get one. This mode was formerly called Normal Mode.
===Intermediate Mode===
This mode is a somewhat difficult game mode, and is the most recent game mode, being released on May 3, 2024. There is currently no level requirement for this mode, it has 30 waves, has a total of 20 enemies, and you can currently get no badges from this game mode. The cash you receive at the start of the game mode differs on the amount of players in the game, and when this game mode released, the coins received for Molten changed from 500 to 400, but the next day, it was reverted back to giving you 500 coins.
===Fallen Mode===
This mode is a difficult game mode, where it's not exactly easy. The level requirement for this is level 10+ (unless other people level 10 or above vote for Fallen), it has 40 waves, has a total of 22 enemies (25 enemies in Enemies Beta), and you could get 5 badges from this game mode, but now only one.
You could get the second now unobtainable badge "Defeat Nuclear Fallen King" by going to the Polluted Wastelands map and choosing Fallen Mode, then beating the Nuclear Fallen King.
You could get the third now unobtainable badge by beating Fallen in under 16 minutes and 49 seconds. If the game was beaten in under 16 minutes and 49 seconds, you would have to wait around 20 seconds before hearing this music and firstly seeing Glitched Giants before other enemies. There are a total of 15 enemies in this wave, and triumphing this game mode resulted in nothing at first, but later gave you the Glitchy Nametag.
You could get the fourth now unobtainable badge by going to the now removed map Badlands and beating it on Fallen Mode.

===Jazwares===
Paradoxum Games's Jazwares reward you Roblox items instead of rewards relating to the game. Currently, Molten Boss's Jazware does not grant you any reward.
===Plushies===
Plushies are usually the main part of Tower Defense Simulator's toys, because they give rewards relating to the game, and they are also on the Paradoxum Games website. Tower plushies give a skin of the tower plushie bought, though, the Umbra Plushie gave an Umbra skin for Commander instead of a plushie skin. Enemy plushies give an enemy nametag and an enemy charm.
==Trivia==
*Their website is powered by Juniper Creates™.
*They have won a Bloxy Award.
*The game is often referred to as Tower Delay Simulator, this is mainly because of the Frost Invasion update and players having to wait until that update for the Toxic Gunner tower.
*The developers are often called simps because of the female skins Neko DJ, Maid Commander, Ace Pilot Militant, and the boss character The Umbra.
*The Twitter account's first two posts were reposts.
