I suggest maybe upgrading the unit and towers as the game progresses so they are a little more challanging in late-game scenerios, because once heroes start buying items, its essentially a hero duel from that point on. The spawned units are nothing more then extra cash flow.

There actually is such a function, but it seems to be not visible enough. I will change this in version 2.3.
Thank you for reporting!

But first a short list of changes made in 2.2:
- fixed MANY bugs
- added a new hero
- added new game modes
- many small changes & optimizations
(see the quests for a full list)
