Questions from the comments:
have you guys ever thought about a tool for challenge editor in that you can create custom tracks and/or waves?
It isn’t something we are planning on adding at this point!
Has Sauda ever accidentally sliced a monkey?
Mostly just herself
What did the Heroes do for Xmas?
Spent time with their loved ones and opened lots of presents!
I don't remember if I've asked this question before (sorry if I have), but how did it work to make the hero animations in BTDB2? Their models seem to have been made for the top-down Tower Defense style, were there any modifications made to fit their new use on the podiums?
There was a ton of work that went into making the heroes with all new models, animations, taunts and more. We hope you are enjoying them!
what did all the heroes do on new years eve
Quincy hosted a party and everyone came!
How was your break?
Amazing, thanks so much for asking!
Do you have any plans for sas4 update in 2022?
Yes, our team is working on an update at the moment but we don’t have an ETA for it at this stage. :)
Why do most of the Tower Keepers heroes look angry/grumpy?
It's just their faces! They look happy when they win at least!
What happened to the last monkey to annoy Adora enough to make her lose her cool?
We don’t talk about Bruno. What monkey?
WILL THERE BE A GLUE GUNNER PLUSH ANSWER ME PLEASE
Maybe one day! Make sure to stick around and find out!
what is brickell's favorite type of bird
A Galah!
do monkeys feel sad when they get ranked f on a tier list?
We just tell them it means “F for Fantastic” to make them feel better.
What was the reasoning behind not making any non-water maps for battles 2's launch?
We try to keep as many tactical options open as possible. Most of our BTD6 maps have at least some small portion of water these days too.
which hero has been nice and which hero has been naughty
All of them have been very nice!
Why doesn't Dr. Monkey ever come out of his lab? Or is he just the the ideal "True Gamer"? I guess only Cyber Quincy will know…
He is a very busy monkey!
why does churchill the only monkey with a tank ? my guess is the one he is using is a prototype
He’s the only one with a tank licence
Will we ever see T.D as a playable hero? I really resonate and relate to them.
We haven’t planned on it but ya know what, same.
are ocean obyn mountain obyn and normal obyn the same person
Yes and no.
How do x-x-2 boomerang monkeys make their rangs so red hot?
Heat and the burning desire to just throw stuff.
Why is he called Obyn Greenfoot if he does not, in fact, have Green feet?
It's kind of like a green thumb, just for monkeys!
What do you prefer, kiwis (fruit), kiwis (animal), or kiwis (people)
All of the above are just great
Can you guys give more lore to the games or no?
We much prefer to listen to the community's lore!
will the wheel of fortune ever return?
Sadly, probably not. :(
Will off-centered bloons return? Just to make use of wide bloon paths of some maps, and preferably, implement it in Apopalypse
All our Bloons are supremely well-centered now, they’ve been doing pilates
are all BTD games conected in the same universe or all games are in their own timeline?
Definitely the same universe
What’s in Gwen’s hot sauce?
Concentrated Red Bloon.
Which type of map (Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced, or Expert) do you enjoy designing the most or least?
We love designing all of them and we tend to just design the map then decide where it fits for difficulty.
Who’s the fluffiest hero? And specifically in regards to obyn, would he be prickly like a rose or softer like a bed of moss.
Pat, biggest and softest boy!
If you make a new tower, will it have to launch in both BDT6 and Battles 2 at the same time? Or can you make "exclusives"? (Or just add it to one first and then add it to the other later?)
Battles 2 and BTD6 are seperate games, this means that balance and towers will be slightly different across them! Something that is changed in BTD6, may not be changed in Battles 2 and if something is added in BTD6, we might not add it to Battles 2 and vice versa. :)
Have a great weekend and happy gaming!

How do bloons travel along the track? I know MOABs has propellers or engines but there isn’t any on bloons. If it is the wind then how do bloons go in the opposite direction of their spawn on some maps?

i just combined all my question for btd battles 2 1. Will Professor Evil Come Back and give Rewards? 2. Will Clans And Tournments Come back and will tournaments give off rewards like monkey money? 3.Will Sandbox Come Back For testing updates in btd battles 2? 4. Will Dtts and B.A.Ds have their own areana to fix the gap? 5.Will there be A Excusive Btd battles 2 monkeys before 1.1.0? (Keep in mind you do not have to answer them all)
Can we have a small hint to any new tower, paragon, hero, or hero skin that is in the works?
I feel like the only one who's bothered by seeing Super Ceramics in BTD6 as early as Round 81 when I would rather have them start showing up after you defeat the B.A.D. of Round 100 instead — BTD game performance has improved a lot over the past few years, so maybe can we push back the first appearance of Super Ceramics in BTD6 to Round 101 instead of Round 81 like it is now?

testee
when you merge 2 monkeys in bloons pop, is it sort of like a mini-paragon thing or does one get a promotion and the other goes home?
Considering we have 2 Paragons for Primary, 1 for Magic, 1 for Military, does that mean we will be seeing a support Paragon in the future (and how the heck that would even work)?
