Another year passes, another year approaches. Let's take a look at how the last year went for Tap Ninja, and how the next one will go:

What was

This year saw fewer updates to Tap Ninja while the updates themselves were much bigger in scale. Namely "Conquest": the work on this update started right in January and was released in July - this update added a whole new game to Tap Ninja and changed the direction of the game. It also saw the most engagement to the game in its history. Naturally, because of this more focus was spent on fleshing out Conquest with the recent v6.1.0 update, which seem to have been the least buggy update for Tap Ninja ever! We as a community also managed to raise over $12'000 for children in need! A massive feat! We found numerous amazing artists during the Tap Ninja's 3 year anniversary art contest!

What wasn't

Because of the change in the games focus, previously planned updates had to be changed or delayed. v6.1.0 was supposed to focus on the main game and expand the Holiday tasks with unique quests each week. v6.2.0 would have added social features like player profiles and leaderboards. The old roadmap features of "Artefacts" and "Dimensions" are still yet to be implemented as well, being delayed only slightly from the original 'winter of 2022' & 'spring of 2023' release dates... (game dev is more time consuming than you'd think)

What is

At the moment I'm working on the v6.2.0 update, the current release estimate is March/April. It will focus on the main game and include:

• New main game building
• Research Tier 16
• More Achievements
• New Pets (because of generous donators during the charity stream!)
• New main game enemy (because of generous donators during the charity stream!)
• New Pet tints
• More proper weather effects
• More fleshed out weekly holiday tasks
• Dye your Heroes in more than 1 dye
• Dye your Heroes hat
• More Heroes and other Conquest stuff
• Dust & Feather transmutation

What will be

Instead of breaking down the updates onto a timeline (that never works out), I'll simply note down the planned features to be implemented this year for Tap Ninja.

• In-game leaderboards: See how you rank among your friends and the whole playerbase!
• Seasonal game - Start an almost fresh new game that lasts for around 3 months. Each season has a different bonus like x4 Gps or x3 Elixir. Compete with other players by getting as far within the season as possible and unlock exclusive cosmetic rewards for the main game! (this is essentially what "dimensions" were supposed to be)
• Personal Dojo - Give your ninja a break from all that running by constructing your personal dojo! Unlock furniture by achieving milestones in the game and decorate the place!

When will all this be implemented? Who knows, this year hopefully. Have a nice and fulfilling 2025! The year of the snake!

We are calling upon everyone with a sliver of creativity to draw and create original artworks that are Tap Ninja themed! What to draw? Anything! The art doesn't have to be drawn either, want to make clay figurines? Do it. Making a Tap Ninja music cover? Lets hear it. Want to forge a real life shuriken? Lets go! As long as it's Tap Ninja related, it's eligible for the contest. If you can imagine it - create it! Except for AI art - we want to see your personal creative skills, so AI art is not eligible for winning. The entries also have to be "safe for work" or they will be disqualified. Entries will be judged by the Moderators based on our own preferences. Numerous winners in different categories will be chosen to receive packs of Amber in Tap Ninja, with the main prize being 20'000 Amber! This is a Discord server event, so all of the entries have to be posted in the Tap Ninja Discord server, in the appropriate channel to participate in the event. You can even submit multiple art pieces, however rewards will only be given out a maximum of one time per winner. Joint the server here - https://discord.gg/WcgUKc8Fp5 The deadline for entries is set for 31st of August 2024 at 23:59 with the winners being announced not long afterwards.

With the v6.0.0 update comes the long awaited Conquest update to Tap Ninja! Embark on establishing your settlement and conquering the enemy provinces while earning varying rewards from your spoils.

Build it

On this new island you will be tasked with constructing multiple buildings to help in your conquest efforts. Some of the buildings include:

• Castle - your main bastion, advancing rest of the buildings
• School - a place to study new technologies through different branches
• Tavern - the hangout where heroes meet for new adventures

Each of these buildings can be levelled up, improving their effects. Be wary that gold is no good in constructing lasting buildings, so materials of Lumber and Ore will have to be harvested for their use in constructing these buildings.

Conquer it

The island is covered with enemy Provinces and Towns within, your job is to conquer them all. Each of the town's levels will award you with multiple rewards while conquering the whole province will award you with a more substantial reward which can include a boost to your Ninjas Elixir income, award more daily currency or even unlock another daily Quest slot.

Heroes assemble

How do you conquer these towns? Your ninja cant do it all alone, so Heroes have to be recruited for aid in this task. Recruiting happens with Scrolls similarly to how Pet summoning works. Heroes come in many shapes and sizes, so each hero is divided into a class, a faction and a rarity.

• The class determines what the hero's role on the field is with the available classes being a Warrior, a Mage, an Assassin & Support.
• The faction determines its strength and weakness against corresponding factions, the factions being Fire, Wind, Earth & Water.
• The rarity shows how many skills the hero has. Rare only has an Ultimate, Epic has an Ultimate and a passive while Legendary has an Ultimate and two passives.

The heroes battlefield strength is determined by its Star level and Hero level with the Star level being gained during the recruitment (which can be upgraded afterwards). The Hero level on the other hand uses Hero Exp, which is gained through conquering towns and passively from the Training Grounds building.

What of my ninja?

The base game is not forgotten and is receiving multiple updates including:

• Upgrade Tier 15
• New Ascension skills
• New achievements
• 3 new pets
• Unlockable tints for each pet and their skins
• And more!

Now what?

The update is big and comparable to a new side game being added to Tap Ninja, but the work on it is going very well and a public beta test will be available on Steam for everyone in around 24 days with the full release of the update coming roughly two weeks afterwards, if no delays occur. Each day leading to the beta test will have a small tease about each of the upcoming heroes, so keep following for more updates in this post - https://steamcommunity.com/app/1891700/discussions/0/4361249719396183109/

v5.1.0 has landed on the public beta test!

Anyone that is playing on a Steam client can join. Read the instructions on how to join over here - https://steamcommunity.com/app/1891700/discussions/0/3316358999124492855/ Your main games save file will not be affected while playing the beta, and the beta save file will be deleted once the beta ends.

More medals - more fun

To fight the Medal drought the Challenge Upgrade Track has been implemented - by simply completing Weekly Challenge levels you will progress on this upgrade track, completing the track will unlock extra levels and extra Medals for completing Challenge levels.
The progress in this track is added retroactively from your previously completed levels. To earn even more Medals, the Quest rewards and Weekly tasks will now award more of them.

Each day is a new bonus

Once the Daily Bonus upgrade is unlocked, you will start receiving a passive bonus, this bonus changes with each day. So if you're going for a certain achievement and could use a little bit of help - make sure to catch the discount bonus days!

Master the Masteries

After achieving the rank of 1. Dan or above from achievements, you will start earning Mastery points, these will be used for different Mastery tracks to further boost your power. Note that you won't be able to unlock all of the Mastery upgrades!

Sharpen your mind

Another small, fun activity is being introduced - Weekly Riddles. Each week a unique riddle will be presented for everyone, solve it and be reward with a sum of Amber.

New goals

To benefit from these new bonuses, more content is being added for the end-game! New unlockable Building - Academy Uprade Tier 14 New Ascension skills New Achievements

Pets, pets and pets

Three new Pets are being introduced with this update Frog - the master of Fireflies, boost their gains and catch them automatically Turtle - the wise hermit, boost the away income while gaining discounts with Gold Dragonling - the gracious being, boost your Coin gains and the Firefly luck To speed up the bonding times a new consumable is being introduced - Pet Treats. Pets that have this treat active will receive bonding progress even if they are not by your side, while if they are, the bonding progress is doubled! The Pet Star upgrade costs have always been slightly ridiculous, so with this update the costs and how many Stars you receive from double summons has been changed - costs are reduced for later levels and increased for early levels

Legacy achievements

With this update a couple of harder Achievements will reward unique Legacy Achievements, this is to show your dedication before they become easier to earn. Unlocking these Achievements after the update won't reward appropriate Legacy Achievements. These Achievements will include: - Big Brain Move (Tier 11) - The Pen is Mightier than the Hammer (Tier 7) - 6. Dan This is a beta test so please share your thoughts on what should be re-balanced or re-checked, how should Medal upgrades be distributed? Should any of them be switched around?

Boosted Gold and Elixir income mostly towards the end-game Reduced the prices for the Shrine building Fixed a bug with multiple Pets not multiplying the Critical Hit chance properly

[ 2023-10-11 21:38:01 CET ] [ Original post ]

Fixed Elixir skill prices for "Way of the Jhy" & "Hive Management" Boosted Elixir gains at the end-game Boosted Away income Nerfs to the gold gains in the end-game. Tier 13 & Shrine made more expensive

[ 2023-10-07 14:10:17 CET ] [ Original post ]

With this update the Gold income should be comparable to the pre-v5 income, meaning that all of the Achievements are now reasonably achievable once again. Another is to the Elixir costs for unlocks after the Shrine - they have been increased. Why? The end game was simply too unbalanced and unreasonably too fast, there were two ways I could have gone with the balancing, either decrease the Elixir bonuses or increase the Elixir costs, the second option was chosen. Because of this, the Elixir bonuses have been boosted to compensate the increase in costs. Apologies about the continuous number changes, but I'm hoping that this is the last of the balancing change updates. If all goes well then the work on v5.1.0 is going to begin, as a sneak peak it will include: Tier 14, unique achievements, 3 new pets, weekly riddles, and more. Skill Elixir costs for early and end game increased. Player Elixir has been adjusted accordingly Boosts to Elixir gains Boosts to Gold income Building income boosted & cost reduced Adjustments to Research upgrade costs Quest rewards for Gold & Elixir improved Pet passives for Critters boosted and Birds nerfed 'Claim All' button for Achievement rewards added The shuriken now will only target the clicked Firefly, until it has been taken care of Shift clicking in the sky now lets you throw shurikens Coins found by Pet Mouse now correctly award the appropriate Elixir Statistics for Firefly value now display more accurate values Pets are no longer running over each other in portrait mode

You've probably noticed that the game has received some balancing changes. Some of you might have questions about why even do a full rebalance, or, in other words, "Why destroy the game?" - Simply put, the problem was with the way Elixir was acquired. The best strategy to gain the most Elixir was to Ascend, play for a minute, Ascend, play for a minute, and repeat. It's nice for players who have figured it out and actually enjoy doing that, but it's awful for everyone else. So it was changed for Elixir to be gained mostly from longer runs by tying the gained Elixir to the Coins value, by doing that, most of the game had to be rebalanced to fit the new system. Another shortcoming I wanted to tackle was the awful offline gains, those were massively boosted, but at the same time, the active play gains were nerfed. In making both of these changes, I messed up the game too much. The active play gains have been nerfed, they have been nerfed too far. So now come the hotfix updates, as I want to make the game feel right for everyone. I am still working on getting the balancing right, so please be patient while I'm working on it, as there will be more changes and boosts coming. I am reading all of your comments, and I want to make the game fun for everyone. Thank you to everyone who is sharing actual usable feedback on what you don't enjoy about the new changes and suggestions about what needs fixing. The v5.0.2 changelog Further balancing changes that mostly buffed active play upgrades Fixed a bug with Firefly events having no effect after challenges The stashed Old rewards and the New rewards now correctly display the total count

Players that have played the v5.0.0 will receive a boost to the Ascension Gold bonus, as it was not applied correctly before, same as everyone else Decreased the cost for the Treasury and Shrine buildings while increasing the GpS for most buildings Unlocking the Medal upgrade row six and higher now requires less Medal upgrades Requirements for unlocking new Pet slots have been made slightly easier Overspent currency for Eggs & Keys now appear correctly Achievement requirements for defeating Enemies and using Abilities now appear correctly More balancing changes will be coming, please hold on and don't lose hope, because as much as you want the game to be fun - so do I.

If everything goes correctly then the update will be released on 27th September, this year.

v5.0.0 is landing in the public beta test!

Anyone that is playing on a Steam client can join. Read the instructions on how to join over here - https://steamcommunity.com/app/1891700/discussions/0/3316358999124492855/ Your main games save file will not be affected while playing the beta, and the beta save file will be deleted once the beta ends. More idle - more fun With the new update the game will receive a full rebalance to be more idle-friendly Away income will receive a massive boost and will now be comparable to active play in the later game, Daily Quest rewards and Challenge rewards will receive a huge boost as well. The Elixir will be changed as well receiving it passively from Gold is no longer a thing, now its value is tied to the Coins value and is mainly obtained from defeating Enemies. Rebalanced all the way Every upgrade in the game has been rebalanced in a way. The Ascension tree skills as well as the Medal Upgrades have been reorganized and moved around with numerous Medal upgrade ranks being added (do not worry, everyone will get a free reset!). So please take your time to get used to the new changes. Most of the upgrades are now multiplicative instead of additive, meaning that what you see is what you get regarding the bonus. Walking Zoo Another big addition is the ability to select two additional Pets at a time! Unlocking either slot requires treating your Pets with love and raising their Bond levels to a certain level. Every single Pet now matters each pets passive boost is now active at all times, but only the selected active Pets will grant their full potential. Remember that the passive boost is stronger the higher the Pets Bond and Star level is. The maximum Bond level has also been raised from 12 to 15, so your favourite Pets can become even stronger!
This is a beta test so please share your thoughts on what should be re-balanced or re-checked, how should Medal upgrades be distributed? Should any of them be switched around? Opening the update for the first time will convert your old Elixir values and Godai element levels to the new ones Read the full change log inside the game through the version history found in the Settings tab.

The Pet update will be released in 14 to 18 day time from now. The update is being tested in a public beta test, anyone that is playing on a Steam client can join. Read the instructions on how to join over here - https://steamcommunity.com/app/1891700/discussions/0/3316358999124492855/ First of all the Stars from Challenges will be swapped to Medals. What are Pets? At launch there is going to be 12 different pets, each with their own abilities, passive bonuses, a Star level and a Bond level. While both Star and Bond levels increase the Pets passive bonus, the abilities will be unlocked once the Pet reaches a certain Star level. There are three types of Pets Critters, Beasts and Birds. Each type has a unique passive bonus. You will be able to select one Pet at a time to follow you and help on your journey. And yes - you can name your pets. How to obtain Pets? Pets will be obtainable though a new currency Eggs. Opening these Eggs will have a chance obtain a stronger or a weaker pet. Obtaining a weaker pet will award you with another new currency - Critter Stars, Beast Stars and Bird Stars. The Star type that you earn will depend on the Pets type. How to strengthen the Star level? While obtaining a stronger pet though Eggs will automatically increase that Pets star level, you can also collect enough Stars of the appropriate type and upgrade the Star level for a pet of your own choosing. How to strengthen the Bond level? To increase the Bond level you have to keep the Pet by your side and bonding with it though your journeys, this will gradually fill up your pets bond meter and once its full you can spend Medals from Challenge levels to advance the pet to the next Bond level.
The Pet Collection Swapping between pets is only doable once per day to avoid any unnecessary power gaming. The beta focuses on pet functionality and testing if the abilities work correctly Note that all of the pet Star costs and Bond level timers have been drastically reduced so that later Pet level abilities can be tested.

Greetings! The pet update is coming along nicely and I expect it to be done sometime in the first part of October. Here is some basics on how the pets will benefit you:

• Each pet will have a different benefits - one could make the fireflies appear more often while another one would reduce the cost of buildings.
• Pets will also have levels, these would either boost their primary benefit or unlock a new one.
• You will be able to choose one to help and fight by your side

So now I want to hear your suggestions on what kind of Pets would you like to see and what would be their ability to focus on. Here is an example Snake - based around the Rope Hook Lvl 1: Increases Rope Hooks length by x Lvl 2: Decreases Rope Hooks cooldown by x Lvl 3: Each Critical hit takes away 1 second from the current Rope Hooks cooldown Lvl 4: Rope Hook can now penetrate one enemy Thanks everyone!

One year ago on this date Tap Ninja was released on Android. It's been a crazy year with a lot of improvements (a lot of bugs, some bigger than others) and some new content. I just wanted to say a big thank you to everyone that plays or has played Tap Ninja (and might play). Just for fun I wanted to share a few screenshots from early development stages of the game going though some menu changes:





What's Next - A lot players are already talking about and speculating about the next update, which will bring collectable companions and pets who will follow you around and help you on your journey. I don't have anything much to share about it at this point, only that the release is planned for no later than early October. The Roadmap - In a true indie gamedev fashion I didn't realise how time-consuming some updates and bug fixes might be, so the roadmap predictions should be pushed back by one season later. I'm very grateful for all of the players that gave it a shot and stuck around making it possible for the game to keep on growing. A big thank you to the Discord mods (AMK, Panda, KG/Molly Laser, and Insane96) that keep the community going and happy! Regards, Shamahan

Greetings everyone I have read a lot of feedback about how the game is not Idle enough and requires too much clicking. I would like to fix this issue, so here is your chance to help me out with doing it. I don't want the players to feel forced to use an auto-clicker and keep the game running all night but at the same time I want to keep the active play the most effective. I want to hear your ideas of how would you change or rework the

• attacking
• speed step/combo system
• energy/auto-attack system

On top of this I will also be boosting the Idle gold income throughout the game. I won't respond to every suggestion but I will read each one of them. Please be fair and reasonable with them.
