Just a couple of ideas I quickly thought about: a lot more shop items\/objects (more attacking summons (not just humans or warriors, maybe like horses or something fantasy-like), attacking upgrades (like how you have the attack speed and time slow upgrades)), achievements (to give the player something to work towards), maybe enemies can have a single tiny minion with him that has like 1\/3 of the main enemy's health and is required to kill before moving on to the next enemy.
