DevUpdate #67: Nor Iron Bars a Kage

March 11, 2022

Hey everyone, lemmingllama here. Last week we looked into the changes coming to raid cards to help reduce the variance in attacks. This week we’ll be focusing on some of the changes coming to the main game, including some that will change the pacing of the main game progression. Let’s get into it!


To start, we are looking to change the early game pacing to help smooth out the content. This will be done by changing how new pets are unlocked. New players will have access to a limited pool of pets that will be available from pet eggs, the bear shop, and any other place where pets are accessible. As players progress through the game and reach certain stage milestones, they will unlock new pets. This should help players level up their pets to unlock the pet’s passive bonuses, while also helping smooth out progression in the early game.

These changes will not apply to players who already have a pet unlocked and will not apply to Abyssal Tournaments.

In addition to these earlier game changes, we’ll also be changing how newer players progress inactively. Currently inactive progression is unlocked at stage 250 through the Silent March talent. In the 5.15 update, we will be giving a Base Sneak Count to all players, unlocking Inactive Progression for all players regardless of stage, and allow for new players to collect Inactive Gold. For players who already have Silent March unlocked, this Base Sneak Count will be added to your current Sneak Count, increasing your inactive progression speed.


Now, we also have changes that will more directly impact our players who have progressed further into the game. To start off, we are introducing two new equipment sets with this update. The first is the Titan Crusher legendary equipment set, which gives a Titan Slayer Damage bonus that increases your All Damage and Critical Damage. Additionally, the Titan Crusher set has a Titan Reduction bonus, which will decrease the number of titans per stage that you will need to face similar to the Intimidating Presence talent.

The second equipment set is the Roll Player event equipment set. This set will increase your Jackpot Gold.

Lastly, for our players who have progressed far enough to hit the max stage cap, we will be raising up the stage cap further so players will have more stages to progress through. Players will be able to progress up until stage 160,000. New milestones will be added for these new stages, including two new progression avatars, two new milestone profile backgrounds, and two new milestone bundles.

Hopefully everyone is excited for the changes coming, and we’ll continue next week to explore other changes coming in the 5.15 update.

Happy Tapping!
