Paragon decoration with sped up animation when fast forward is toggled.

In Bloons TD 6, when fast forward is toggled, animated decorations on the towers list (such as new tier unlock or paragon unlock) are also sped up.

Bloons Pop!

In Bloons Pop!, Fast Forward is also available to use. It can be activated after any throw to speed up the physics by 3× for that throw, and automatically disables itself once all projectiles have expired.

There is an in game purchase called Auto Fast Forward which automatically turns on fast forward without player input. It costs USD$5.99 and can be toggled on and off in the pause menu.
