    This feels so much like a VSauce video. You start with a simple question "how high do rounds go in BTD6?" and start working your way through small, examples (i.e. round 40, 63, super cerams). Very quickly, these escalate to a point of being unachievable by any human. Soon after, the question itself starts to break down. After all, can round 1,000,000+ even be considered a round if there are no bloons? And at the end of it all, you must turn to philosophy to for the answer, which ends up revealing some intrinsic truth about life.......accept victory or push on into the infinity where you only reward is death and defeat
    (plus a few instamonkeys).

    So to realy defeat the game, you need to beat round 10133702. And this means if ever one were to gain this in survival, this would equal to Super-Impoppable or rather universal God mode. Only a Deity or with mods one can defeat the true and actual final round 10133702. And 15:22 is a big twist, the game is a time loop, this is the reason why the war never ends.

It's time my army of monkeys is put to rest. As for you, Mackan, I hope your channel does well. My dart monkey plush shall remain as rememberance of this chapter.

    just wanted to note that the maximum number of waves wrapping back to it's minimum number (after an integer overflow) is a very common thing done in many coding languages, so you can expect such behavior in many other games as well when maxing out an integer. obviously there's many ways to fix this but isn't done when unnecessary from my understanding

    As a Unity game developer, knowing that BTD6 is made with Unity, which uses the C# programming language, there is variable called `int.MaxValue`, which if you do a quick research, is equivalent to 2,147,483,647, which not so co-incidentally is the highest round BTD6 can go.
    On the flip side, the value of ``int.MinValue`` is -2147483648. If int.MaxValue is added by one, an integer overflow will happen, and results in the highest number an integer can hold turning into the lowest number an integer can hold, like a cycle.
    That's why after round 2147483647, the round number is equal to int.MinValue, and the whole cycle iterates again.
