The Bloons Card Storm Firstlook test, also known as version 0.1,[fn 1] was a beta test of Bloons Card Storm on Windows that released on 4 June 2024.[1] It was distributed through a pre-release branch on Steam to a limited number of applicants on Ninja Kiwi's official Discord server. This build featured two Heroes, five preset decks with no support for customization, an early version of Adventure mode, and Duel mode. Duel mode was only accessible from 4 June 2024 to 7 June 2024,[2] but this build could be played offline at any time until all pre-release Steam keys were revoked on 26 September 2024.[3]

Differences

[edit | edit source]
Half Cash icon This section is incomplete. You can help out by expanding it.
The editor who added this notice elaborates:
  • Include differences in features that weren't released at the time, like Wizard Monkey originally being named Apprentice Monkey
  • Menu/user interface differences

Heroes

[edit | edit source]
  • The only playable Heroes in this build are Quincy and Gwendolin. Obyn Greenfoot, Adora, Bloonifer, and Zoom-Jam exist in the game's data, but are inaccessible.
  • Quincy uses his model and animations from Bloons TD 6 as a placeholder. Only Gwendolin has a unique model and full set of animations.
  • Heroes have no voice lines.

Cards

[edit | edit source]
  • There are 38 accessible cards, though only 35 cards are usable by players. Double Rainbow Bloon, Double Ceramic Bloon, and Stunned only appear from the Storm in this build and are not included in any decks. More cards exist in the game's data, but are inaccessible.
  • Cards do not display class icons, and Monkey cards do not display their Monkey types.
  • There are no keywords.
  • There is no limit to the number of copies of Ultra Rare cards that can be in a deck. Some of the default decks in this build include multiple copies of Ultra Rare cards.
  • Decking out does not exist. If the player attempts to draw from an empty deck, the game displays the "Your Hand Is Full!" message instead, even if the player's hand is not full.[4]
  • Both players start with four cards. Starting in the Full Playable test, the first turn player starts with only three.
  • Banana Farm and Tack Shooter use their models from Bloons TD 6 as placeholders.
  • Double Rainbow Bloon and Double Ceramic Bloon use the same model and card art as Rainbow Bloon and Ceramic Bloon, respectively.
  • Golden Bloon's 3D model has different materials, making it look less like gold.
  • Return 2 Sender uses placeholder art instead of its final card art.
  • The only playable maps in this build are Monkey Meadow, Dark Castle, Workshop, and High Finance. Game Night, Wasteland, and Glue Factory exist in the game's data, but are inaccessible.
  • Monkey Meadow and Dark Castle have completely different designs. Monkey Meadow was redesigned for the Full Playable test, while Dark Castle was redesigned for the full release.
  • Workshop and High Finance use the same background as Monkey Meadow.
  • Dark Castle's effect increases the cost of Monkey cards by 1. In the Full Playable test, it was changed to increase the health of Bloon cards by 5.
  • High Finance's effect increases the starting Gold of each player by 3. In the Full Playable test, it was changed to only increase it by 2.
