Questions from the comments:
If heroes were to form a basketball team with Gwen as the power forward, which heroes could fill the other positions on the team?
Quincy would be the shooting guard, Brickell would be the point guard, Pat does great at center position and Jericho would be the small forward.
What are the Monkeys' favourite song from the Wiggles?
Lights, Camera, Action is an all-time fav! Say the Dance, do the dance and Bouncing balls are close behind!
How are you all so good at creating acronyms? Is it consistent practice?
With great power comes great responsibility, skills we have acquired over many years, naturally talented and lots of hard work all went into being great acronym makers!
Do the heroes watch anime? If so, do any of them have recommendations?
Most of the heroes are big fans of Delicious in Dungeon, especially the amount of work that goes into making those dishes look so…. well… Delicious!! Other favourites are Pokemon and which monkey hasn’t tried going super-sayian after watching Dragonball Z!
Which hero has the biggest collection of things?
Adora has a gigantic collection of sparkly rocks!
Which hero is the best at baseball?
Hands down it is Pat! Something about his combat skills just translates so well into baseball!
Okay which Monkey or bloon can reach the highest temperatures
The Wizard Lord Phoenix can handle the most heat, while no bloon has been able to withstand more heat than Blastapopoulos!
Which tower category (Primary, Military, Magic, Support) is each boss bloon most terrifyed of?
The Boss Bloons are never scared * cough cough *
Does the pilot return to the base when the monkey ace gets sold?
Of course! They need to rearm, refuel and recover before the next battle!
Is there a Bloons universe version of LEGO?
Lego!
it is said in bloons monkey city that the ray of doom was made to rival the strength of the true sun god, why did they try such thing??
While Monkeys are clearly intellectually and spiritually far superior to humankind, they do sometimes share similar traits when it comes to pushing the technological envelope. Occasionally, like Icarus, they fly ever so slightly too close to the Sun!
Do other monkeys envy towers with infinite range?
While they know a larger range is often really helpful, they know it is not the only thing that helps pop the Bloons!
Have you guys considered going to GDC? I feel there could be a lot developers that can learn a lot from your games! BTD6, card storm, pop, and many of the games in the ninja kiwi vault could be great places to look back at!
Funny you mention that! We will have several people from across both NK studios at GDC next week! You should be able to spot them by the awesome NK team shirts they are wearing. If you are nearby go say hi!
Is there a link to a site where all this awesome lore is archived? I feel like i'm missing some context on things.
You can check the Bloons wikis, they get updated quite frequently! We also love watching HBombs recaps of the blog lore!
Check them out here!
Have a great weekend and happy gaming!
