Towers
These are only Tier 1 upgrades, wait 'til you see the Tier 2 upgrades ;)

Dart Monkey: Your good ol' regular starting tower. Pops up to 1 layer of 1 bloon per turn.
 * Long Range Darts (1-0): More range. Can aim at bloons up to 2 squares in any horizontal/vertical direction (instead of 1).
 * Sharp Shots (0-1): Increased pierce. Can pop up to 2 bloons in a straight line.
 * Weakness: Lead Bloons

Boomerang Thower: Quite a powerful tower, with an irregular popping pattern. Pops up to three bloons per turn. Usage: Aim at bloon adjacent to Boomerang. Boomerang loops in a perpendicular direction and hits up to 2 more bloons.
 * Multi-Target (1-0): Pierce cap increased to 4.
 * Red Hot 'Rangs (0-1): Can pop Lead Bloons
 * Weakness: Camo Bloons

 * Seeking Shurikens (0-1): Shuriken has 50% chance to seek a second (random) bloon adjacent to the first (including diagonals).

Monkey Apprentice: Decent all-rounder tower with no weaknesses. To compensate, upgrades have a higher energy prerequisite. Pops up to 2 bloons in any horizontal/vertical direction (1 layer at a time).
 * Intense Magic (1-0): Maximum popping power increased to 3. Can only attack in 1 direction (horizontal/vertical)
 * Fireball (0-1): Final bloon has a 50% chance of losing 1 more layer.
