Changes

edit

  • Having infinite lives now prevents On Fire from ending upon losing a level
  • "Improved Performance"
  • "Fixed a bug where some towers and heroes won’t show up for players past the first level they were unlocked on"
  • "Players will no longer see an interstitial ad after hitting “No” to watching an ad for boosts after beating a level and will instead see these after hitting the play button." Reminder that interstitials are turned off when in-app purchases are made, and they are delayed after rewarded videos are watched."
  • "Push notifications added. You can opt into these if you’d like reminders about Bloontonium Canisters, Scene Rewards, and Events."
  • "Fixes made for Powerup effects that were not always displaying."
  • "New sale item IAPs added - keep an eye out for discounts on favourite items."
  • "Minor shot count adjustments - mainly addressing non-Extreme levels with too few shot counts, as well as levels with very high leftover shot counts."
  • "Level reorganization past level 100, primarily to break up sections of levels that were too similar either in patterns or Bloon types."

Monkeys

edit
Bomb Shooter / Mega Bomb Shooter
“ Bomb Shooter was dependable for clusters of low level Bloons and its overall damage stacked up with other towers, but it still felt lackluster. To keep both Bomb Shooter bombs and Mega Bombs around a bit longer, each have been given 1 extra bounce.
— Update notes 		”
  •   Number of bounces increased ― 3 → 4
Captain Churchill
“ Churchill is so good, especially in those clusters of Regen Bloons. Too good in fact, and the ability to create a hero cascade was too frequent and needed to be reduced. We still wanted Churchill to feel like an awesome hero, so instead of nerfing him, we’ve increased the damage he deals when he runs over bloons from 1 -> 2. This can make him more effective against certain individual Bloons, but by increasing the amount of damage done, the regen cascade is reduced.
— Update notes 		”
  •   Tank contact damage increased ― 1 → 2
Adora
“ Adora is a fantastic cleanup hero but overall her damage output was not lining up with other heroes, so she needed a small buff. Adora’s lifespan has increased by 10%.
— Update notes 		”
  •   Lifespan increased by 10%

Reward values
“ We made several adjustments to reward values across the game - including changes some of you noticed in the last week of November and first week of December. We apologize for the abruptness of these balance changes, and for not communicating them earlier; in the future any between update changes will be announced on Ninja Kiwi Games reddit. We made these changes following the release of 3.0 when we realized our reward economy was too generous, mainly devaluing the wonderful work our artists have done on the cosmetics and scene items and also creating a large surplus of powerups.
— Update notes 		”

  • "Polished up the art on Bloonspedia pages"

  • "Lightning Powerup has been totally reworked - more effective in general but also more damage to Bosses"
Levels
“ Levels have had a bit of a tune up for 5.0, you may notice some of the following:
  • Fixed an animation issue with some Bloon formations
  • Added new Spring/Easter holiday themed bloon formations
  • Regenerated all levels to address the following issues:
    • Too many bloons that were regrow, camo, etc. in a single level
    • Lowered the overall difficulty of main progression levels, including regenerating several of the first 100 levels where some players were getting stuck. Should be easier to get friends and family playing now!
    • Removal or editing of some bloon/obstacle patterns that were too difficult or just not as fun
 ”

  •   Damage to Boss Bloons increased
  •   Can now damage Purple Bloons (undocumented)

— Update notes 		”
  •   Damage to Boss Bloons reduced

Ice Monkey / Mega Ice Monkey
“ Ice Monkey and Mega Ice Monkey have had a tune up!
Their snowflake attack was a cool idea (pun intended), but too often led to frustrating situations where the ice trails were missing bloons that were so close.
We’ve switched out this attack to an expanding nova, impacting bloons in a radius around the point where the Ice Monkey hits a bloon. The attack is visually the same, but with much greater effect.
— Update notes 		”
  •   Instead of spawning six branching ice projectiles, the attack spawns an expanding AoE that only freezes Bloons that were within range of the full AoE when it spawned (not Bloons that moved into its radius after it spawned)
