Hi everyone! We're halfway through the year already and it's time for another blog post!
SAS Zombie Assault 4 Mobile - v 1.8 New premium guns and Zombie Hotspot are now part of SAS4 mobile. Premium guns are only available during sales so watch for those if you're looking to pick up a sweet new weapon for destructifying zombie hords!
New forums for ninjakiwi.com Next week we will be opening new forums for ninjakiwi.com. The current NK forums and the old Archive forums will be shut (but still viewable) and all official foruming will be done on a new set of vBulletin 5 forums. These forums will use an account that is completely separate from your ninjakiwi.com game accounts. You will need to create a new account on these forums to participate. There will be more info when they open next week and you can also read the thread on the current forums to see if your question is answered! Read that here.
Ninja Kiwi Drawing Competition Winner!
Last week I asked for an NK related picture and we have a winner!
CWJ-D with BTD5 Party: Blooncovered
Questions from the Comments:
Have you thought about hiring a lot more people to work on something like 3 games at once?
We are working on more than three games at the moment. Game development is slow and complicated, getting more people doesn't always improve things.
Will the new forums be mobile friendly?
Yep! That's one of the design points of vBulletin 5.
Hmm, and what would this "plenty of progress on new forums for ninjakiwi.com" be? I'm seeing no changes whatsoever.
New forums = not the current forums. You haven't seen them yet because they're not ready/live yet.
Why are there only lead bloons and not other metal bloons?
Budget constraints.
Is the ZOMG afraid of Super Monkey? It isn't in BSM 1 or 2.
Every bloon is afraid of Super Monkey. But they know the Bloon cause is more important than being afraid, so they are brave.
What would happen if the bloons fought the zombies?
Bloons have no brains, so no zombies have beef with bloons.
In Bloons Monkey City, there used to be an item called the Portal Artefact. What was that going to be used for before it was removed?
Um... The Portal Artefact is a mysterious and powerful artefact whose mystery is only exceeded by its power. (This info is already in the wild.)
Will mod capability ever be possible on Steam?
It's very unlikely any current games will ever get mod support.
Will there be a BSM3, BSM2 Mobile or bug fixes for BSM2 Flash?
Dunno, yes, no.
Do you know what UTDIIYSTFU stands for?
Uh, that definitely is incredibly yellow stationary train fantastic Uruguay.
Best: Mario or Sonic?
Sonic
Do you prefer pencil on paper, or something more electronically?
For the competition I'm not picky, but my general art preference would be something more electronical.
Will the new forums let us set our time zone?
Yep. It'll even adjust for DST
Righty roo, that's all we've got time for this week folks. Hold onto your hats and have a mighty fine weekend.

Psst Aaron, share those posters, please. http://ninjakiwi.com/Norsk/blog/news/39815-what-s-up-at-ninja-kiwi-11-feb-14
Meh, no one better take my name. I've experienced imposters one too many times... Anyway, some questions. 1) Will you migrate all of the content that were stickies on the old forms to the new forums? Some important stuff on those posts, you know. 2) I know, it gets kind of annoying when you have people ask you for due dates that change all the time, but can you give a measurement in increments of time (days, weeks, etc.) of when the Rancor Sadeye or Tower Keepers will be released? 3) ...you choose freaking Sonic over Mario. I'm disappointed... 4) OK, so if bloons have brains, then why the heck are they afraid? You said they were afraid...you can't think without a brain 5) Explain this Bloon Cause please...
@lewisbx Of course. NK's definition of "soon" is anywhere from 4-14 months. We know this because Aaron said about 14 months ago that the new forums were coming soon, and all the admins said that "BMC was going to come out in two weeks" about 4-5 months before it actually came out to the public.
So about tower keepers coming out "soon." Will somebody please explain to me what Ninja Kiwi's definition of "soon" is?
Okay, okay, hold up! Whoa! Aaron, I'm going to need an explanation of this.. This.. Hoax! Sonic is not better!
Since when has there been two Aaron's? :O

Yay! I won! Thanks to the people who picked my entry! It took me 2 days to make this, and because it was on Powerpoint, it wasn't easy to make. I did like some of the other entries, though! Anyway, New Forum! I hope it contains all the good stuff the current Forum has, and I really hope the Videos section contains non-BTDB Videos. :P This Week's News: -CWJ-D wins the compeition! Yay for him! Oh wait... -New Forum coming soon. I had fun spending time here, and I hope to see you guys in the New Forum! -The Cows, Alien Fish Monsters, and the Abyss declare war onto the humans, ooh, brace yourself! -The 'improved' Championship ends with quite a lot of disputes and bugs -LoK loses his Black Diamond due to bugs, though I don't hate Aaaditya -New cretinous spammer appears in the Forum, not that it would matter much anyway -Some parts of this news may be bogus
