Space Truckin'

"This new looping Beginner track, Space Truckin', will take your fight with the bloons to a solar scale. The looping path means you'll have plenty of opportunities to pop the bloons despite the limited space (pun intended). Three new medals means three new achievements, Monkey Money rewards and Awesome Point payouts."

- BTD5 Description

Space Truckin' is the 4th Beginner Difficulty track on Bloons Tower Defense 5. It was released in an update on August 30th, 2012.

Appearance
This map takes places in space with 4 planets (Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars), the moon, and the Sun. Towers cannot be placed on the sun or anywhere in space, but aquatic towers can be placed in the oceans on Earth. It is a fairly easy track to beat on all three difficulties because the several loops give the player several chances to pop bloons, but the space limitations can make it difficult to position towers as desired.

A red bloon can cross the map in 97 seconds without fast-forward. This makes it the longest track to date (the second longest being Brick Wall at 79 seconds).

Tips

 * It is good to start with a Dart Monkey facing towards the top (where the bloons enter) and a Tack Shooter on Mercury.
 * Tack Shooters and Ice Towers are great inside the loops and on Mercury.
 * A Monkey Buccaneer's range can cover the entire Earth if you use the Longer Cannons upgrade.

Trivia

 * The name of this track is a reference to the song by Deep Purple of the same name.
 * This is good for ice towers and tack shooters due to the looping parts of the track.
 * Up to 13 Monkey Buccaneers can be placed on the water of the Earth.
 * The bloons loop directly around the planets (except Mars).
 * This is the longest (and presumably easiest) track in the BTD series.
 * While this track is the easiest beginner track in BTD5, it is arguably one of the hardest in freeplay due to the lack of space to place lots of Monkey Temples.
 * This track has the least space to put Towers in Bloons Tower Defense 5.
 * It is possible to place towers in Mexico, even though it is so small.
 * This track is the second that appears in Space, the first is the much harder Triangle of Insanity in Bloons TD 4 Expansion.
 * Oddly, it is playing the nice grassy music from Monkey Lane.
 * This happens again in Bloontonium Mine, a track in Bloons Tower Defense Battles.
 * In the iOS version, it uses the music from Floating Islands, Ascension, and Double Double Cross.
