This glitch currently doesn't work on Ruffle because it doesn't support navigation keys. By pressing {{key|Tab}} until an upgrade button is highlighted and pressing {{key|Enter}} to purchase it, the player can purchase that upgrade multiple times on one tower. There's no limit to the number of times the upgrade can be bought and it doesn't stop if the player can't afford it, which puts their money into the negatives. The most useful application of this glitch is to use the Tack Tower's Faster Shooting upgrade to increase its [[attack speed]] to the cap of 40 shots per second; this specific application is often called the "hypersonic Tack Tower glitch".
