Releases: Klaasawastaken/BloonsPlus
Release list
Bloons+ 0.1.0 Preview 5
Bloons+ 0.1.0 Preview 5
This preview focuses on replay reliability, clearer product pages, and a safer update path.
Highlights
- Improved cash and round HUD recognition when tower panels are open.
- Added stronger hero picker verification and route failure diagnostics.
- Prevented completed failed route hashes from looping after a restart.
- Preserved Glacial Trail action timing during freeze cycles instead of releasing future actions early.
- Added support for explicit route ability actions.
- Added monthly and annual Bloons+ Pro previews with an accessible billing switch.
- Expanded the Features page with live viewer, replay control, resume, and diagnostic capabilities.
- Added frozen, temple, and city map artwork plus a refreshed README banner.
- The Download page resolves the latest installer asset from GitHub releases automatically.
Install
Download BloonsPlusSetup.exe and run it over an existing installation, or use it for a new setup. Internet access is required for dependency and VM downloads. Steam and an owned copy of Bloons TD 6 remain separate.
Known limits
This is preview software. Route availability does not guarantee a victory, especially after game balance changes or with different account unlocks. Boss execution and the complete automatic tower-unlock loop remain unfinished. Glacial Trail timing has a new safeguard but still needs a complete live validation run.
Bloons+ is independent of Ninja Kiwi.
Bloons+ 0.1.0 Preview 4
Bloons+ Preview 4
Bloons+ Preview 4 improves the desktop companion, diagnostics, website and release packaging.
Highlights
- Added live Monkey Money per hour tracking.
- Added live XP per hour tracking.
- Replaced the old Prestige metric with XP/hr.
- Added profile-rate sampling from read-only VM save data.

- Added a prioritized repair roadmap for replay, route, installer and progress issues.
- Added BTD6-inspired artwork across the website.
- Updated the Features, About, Wiki, Contributors and Subscriptions pages.
- Added Free and planned Pro subscription comparison.
- Planned Pro pricing: $5.99/month or $40 lifetime.
- Planned Pro launch date: 31 October 2026.
- Added smoother website navigation and reduced-motion support.
- Rebuilt the Windows installer.
Installation
Download BloonsPlusSetup.exe and run it on Windows. The installer downloads required runtime components during setup and guides you through VM configuration.
BTD6 and Steam must be installed separately.
Important Preview Notes
This is a preview release. Some routes still require live validation, especially maps with moving terrain, special mechanics, unusual hero placement, or strict game-mode restrictions.
A route should only be considered complete after both:
- The game shows victory.
- The corresponding medal is saved.
The planned Pro features and pricing are informational only. Pro checkout and entitlements are not available yet.
Bloons+ 0.1.0 Preview 6
Bloons+ 0.1.0 Preview 6
This preview reduces repository clutter and fixes the evidenced early Rake Reverse defeat.
Changes
- Moved browser code into
assets/app, catalogs intodata/catalogs, runtime configuration intodata/config, and maintenance utilities intotools. - Kept the conventional root entry points and package files visible for developers.
- Updated every server, replay, installer, browser, test, and documentation path for the new layout.
- Fixed two browser resources that previously pointed at missing root files.
- Reworked the GitHub banner with a more recognizable Bloons TD 6 inspired monkey, dart, track, and bloon scene.
- Changed Rake Reverse to place its Tack Shooter before Sauda, preventing an undefended opening while cash rebuilds.
- Added bounded two-frame life-loss confirmation so truncated OCR values cannot repeatedly activate emergency spending.
- Retained Preview 5 cash, round, hero, freeze-cycle, and route retry improvements.
Install
Download BloonsPlusSetup.exe and run it over the existing installation. The updated installer preserves user data and downloads system dependencies during setup.
Known limits
Routes remain sensitive to BTD6 balance changes and account unlocks. The Rake fix is evidence based and packaged, but still needs a complete live replay before the route is marked confirmed. Bloons+ is independent of Ninja Kiwi.
Bloons+ 0.1.0 Preview 3
Bloons+ 0.1.0 Preview 3
A cleaner desktop app, repaired setup checks and a live VM game preview.
Changes
- Compact Automation page with map, difficulty, variation and route tools; removed Farm, Sweep and Tower Progress navigation clutter.
- Required hero and tower paths show save-file unlock checks through T5 using the included upgrade catalog.
- Live VM screen under Automation, refreshed every two seconds while open; no game input is sent by the viewer.
- Run Logs issue reporting prepares a redacted GitHub draft and downloadable log for review before submission.
- Boss Events shows Coming Soon while automated boss navigation remains unfinished.
- Preserve recorded round/action order: optional surplus upgrades run only after planned actions finish.
- Held clicks and title/menu diagnostics; explicit detection of a lower-privilege app trying to control elevated BTD6.
- Installer checks Microsoft C++ libraries, Python packages and actual native imports, repairs a broken private environment and preserves existing app data.
- Revised mint/coral setup layout, progress information, retry controls and a persistent installer log.
- Product website, Docs, searchable wiki, legal pages, BTD6 art, Discord banner and reduced-motion-aware animations.
- Removed unused reference-engine snapshots from the public tree while retaining needed data and license notices.
Install
Download BloonsPlusSetup.exe and run it over your existing installation to update. Internet is required for dependency and VM setup downloads. Sign in to Steam inside the guest and install your owned BTD6 copy.
SHA256SUMS.txt contains the installer checksum. This preview is unsigned; Windows SmartScreen may warn about an unrecognized publisher. Signing requires a trusted certificate. Bloons+ does not disable Windows security protections.
Verification and limits
JavaScript and Python syntax checks passed. The local Python native-import preflight passed. The installer compiled, and source/package privacy pattern checks reported no findings. A live VM startup test reached a match and executed tower placement and upgrades; a complete clear was not certified by this test.
The live viewer was checked against the guest and in the app. Wiki active-article navigation and the compact Automation layout were browser-checked. A clean-PC installation has not been verified.
Route availability is not a victory guarantee. Boss execution and the full automatic tower-unlock loop remain unfinished. Guest updates apply to future replays; existing administrator instances may need to be closed manually before launching an updated host app.
Saves, Steam credentials, SSH keys, temporary viewer frames, local progress and VM disks are excluded from publication. Pattern checks cannot identify every possible private detail, so review issue reports before submitting them. Third-party licenses and attribution are retained. Bloons+ is independent of Ninja Kiwi.
