HOT AIR BLOON MOBILE HAS BEEN FOUND. You can watch the ending and monkey baron fight here ukposts.info/have/v-deo/iIWmjKx9nah8x4E.html

Bro made a 3 hour lecture about goofy cartoon monkey's, it doesn't get better than this.

Good video. I'll watch it later.

I think my favourite part about BTD and ninja kiwi is how connected to their community they are. They're basically founded off community contributions and they've remembered that by very clearly listening to their contributions

I dont know why, but I CONSTANTLY find myself rewatching this over and over. Whether invested or just kinda in the background. Maybe the video is just THAT good to me

The best part about btd 6 is you dont have to play the previous 43 games to understand it

I am 88% convinced orange has gone insane making this video

1:06:42 I don’t know why but “super funky man club” had me dead 💀 💀💀💀😂

I have literally seen this video hundreds of times (all the way through), it never gets old. I have seen it at least once every day for the past 9 months

I love how Ninja Kiwi is heavily involved with their community, to the point they knew that one half of their game was a hellscape full of escaped mental asylum patients and the other half was a bunch of 5 year olds, that they made two more games based off of the respective sides.

Absolutely loved the history of BTD Battles, brought back some great memories. Thanks for doing this!

Man, I always wanted a 2 hour 46 minute and 32 second long video about a funny balloon popping monkey game explaining all the story and history of a small video game, thanks for making it!

I really enjoyed watching this full vid over the course of the past few days. Very well done, can't wait to see more!

The snowman wasn't melting he was using his own body as snowballs to throw at you until there was none of him left. Truly genius writing and a metaphor for the cost of success 🙏

I love how Aliensrock and ISAB both cemented themselves so much in Bloons culture to the point they appear in literal essays about the Bloons Franchise trajectory

2:43:00 "although it's not the map editor from btd4" just you wait a few months..

Dude this was legit so well done- I usually have a super low attention span but this had me rapt for three hours very well done

The fact that he made an entire 3 hour essay about monkeys that throw darts at bloons is insanity And not to mention that there's actual editing just is amazing.

I haven't watched it all yet, but this brings back some crazy memories. Specifically early BTD4 and BTD5 release :D! Great video!

I come back to this video every month or 2 and have watched it at least 5 times now. Excellent video

This remains one of my favorite videos ever. Not only is Bloons one of my favorite games ever (even though I've only really played 6) the editing and humor of this video completely captivate me. Neuron activation.

Ninja Kiwi seems to me a perfect example of "he's a little confused but he's got the spirit".

I have been needing a video like this in my life, excited to watch it later!

Amazing video, I am so glad I watched all of it! A friend and I started playing BTD Battles 2 the day it released, and were very frustrated when the dartling ninja sniper meta was all we started seeing in matches while we were just trying to level stuff up to try new strategies. As a result, we ended up making a python program that we could leave to afk XP farm by playing against each other in private matches (why you can get XP in private matches to this day is beyond me). It was the first, and hopefully the last time I have cheated in a game, and I am so glad I did it. The XP system was miserable, but I would say it has improved a lot. Amazing content, keep up the good work!

Ik im a bit late to the party, but I wanted to give OrangE a congratulations on an outstanding video. Id definitely go as far as to say this is the if not one of my favorite youtube videos of all time, and it was so entertaining I watched the whole thing a second time. I subscribed and I cant wait to see what else OrangE has in store for us.

1:10:08 I'd just like to address that setting the flash version of battles to "Low Quality" was necessary in competitive gameplay as it actually allowed you to compact towers closer together. It also reduced lag so that's why the quality was so poor. Sick video btw

BDT5 actually got a major update in November 2022 that added a shit ton of new stuff. A new Special Agent, a new map, a new gamemode, and 10 premium skins meant to recreate the retro art-style of the older towers. Finally, an actual update besides a new map every few months.

2:15:00 it always amazes me how far lengths NK are willing to go wether it be 30th december updates and all that other stuff its just the dedacation from NK tthat keeps me coming back every. single. day also great job on the vid this is like my 14th time watching it and i LOVE IT keep up the good work im looking forward to your next bloons video

Can't believe I watched this all the way through. Loved a bit of a nostalgia trip!

I lost it at 29:59. Not only did the song get claimed, not only did that exact same song get claimed _multiple times,_ it got claimed *29 times,* which is such a specific number. I can imagine that after the 29th claim, they were like "Nah, that's enough. 30 would be overkill." And there's also the fact that an image site apparently has music. Great job, man.

"Completely no pay to win aspects" That aged well.

had this video in my watch later for like 6 months. worth the wait to watch it when i could watch it all in one sitting

Just watched the finale to Hot Air Bloon, it ends in an epic chase after the Monkey Baron while Flight of The Valkyries plays in the background. You then save your wife, while Monkey Baron vows revenge and is revealed to be your evil brother.

Give this man a oscar. Bro made a friking 3 hour video about bloons. What a legend

Battles 2 is the best example of "you only get one release day"

me and some highschool friends played btd6 a ton during covid and even after, and now anytime i meet someone that also played it i get so happy

battles 2 has got to be the biggest case of a poor release killing a game, nowadays everyone acts like every game can pull a no man's sky, but their rebound was impressive because it was an exception to the rule

Yknow, I liked Ninja Kiwi for their games, but never really looked passed that. Now, after knowing just how well they actually respond and how community driven they are, genuinely makes me love the games even more. A ton of games don't even have half the community interaction NK has with it's fans, it's actually quite amazing

24:08 You got me here and also the Spamton glasses on the monkey

Session 1 - 33:25 Session 2 - 1:08:57 Session 3 - 1:52:48 Session 4 - 2:23:15 Session 5 - 2:46:33 Holy that was a long video, props man it was great.

I can't believe the creator came up with bloons while wearing a btd 6 shirt. What a coincidence!

Imagine one day Sam appears in a video addressing random questions by community, and at Encrypted's secret he goes: "What do you mean 《Doesn't do anything》? Look, I have a game of Encrypted on mine phone here right now... - he pulls phone out of his pocket and BTD6 soundtrack overlayed with popping bloons can be heard, - ... and if I place correct towers here..." A few seconds of jolly music pass as Sam stares at his phone, his expression rapidly growing extremely concerned, before he drops his phone and points to person behind the camera, shouting "Cut the records! It's gone!!!", before video ends abruptly, BTD soundtrack on the last few moments being drown out by blaring sounds of emergency alarms...

This is a fantabulous video! Love it

i have watched this video 8 separate times. this video is funny and informational, and even if I don't play bloons that much anymore i still enjoy every vid this guy makes. this is my comfort video im not even joking when I'm bored i put this on and lean back and enjoy

Doesn't matter if it's don't starve or not Orange is always entertaining to watch

The dedication it takes to make a three hour video while trying every game is a whole nother level that I don’t have the patience to do. Thanks for the history!

this video is simply perfection. I spent 2 hours watching all of it and didn’t even notice it

1:56:29 best game in the series no questions, not even kidding tho its a really good game

I love that in BTD6 they added the callback to N.A.P.S.F.R.I.L.L.S through C.H.I.M.P.S mode, even if its easier in BTD6 it's amazing that they stayed so involved with the community.

This is awesome! I was not expecting all this detail. This must have taken a long time!

I can never finish this video before falling asleep and yet I come back every time , good job

One of the best Bloons videos I have ever seen

1:04:45 "Someone should make a tower defense game where your towers dying is a core mechanic" Technically, you got the Plants vs Zombies Wall-nuts, and instant use plants. You also have Inscryption where sacrificing some of your "towers" lets you get better, stronger towers.

I was born in 1997, my entire childhood aligned perfectly with the entire Golden age of flash browser games. I have such a strong nostalgic feeling for the tens of thousands of random forgotten flash games I played growing up; I didn't have a good enough PC to play actual pc games and I didn't get new console games very often because we were kinda poor. Bloons is one of those few flash games that became so successful it broke out of the status of silly flash game into being an actual legitimate full videogame, and for that it'll always be close to my heart.

I only ever played BTD5 on the browser and on mobile and loved it (I only played it casually tho) - later I wishlisted BTD6. I knew the games had a big following but I could've never imagined that there where THAT many games. Damn. Nice video!

What a great video! Watched it multiple times

I actually loved city. I thought the limited amount of towers and town building aspect were pretty unique and made the game feel fresh. Aswell as the others blooms added.

The Sand snowman in the Christmas Edition of Bloons 2 might be because Ninja Kiwi is an NZ company, and in NZ, Christmas happens at the same time as the rest of the world, but its seasons are the opposite of northern countries seasons due to hemisphere differences. So it might be a nod that in NZ, if you wanna make a snowman during Christmas you'd probably have to settle for using sand instead of snow

One of my favorite videos in existence I have watched it a unhealthy amount of times thank you for providing me with this entertainment

i watched this entire video while never playing a single bloons game in my entire life. THAT'S how you know this is a banger video.

The fact "You lose as many lives as the bloon had bloons inside it plus 1" is correct. If a blue bloon escapes, it has 1 bloon inside (a red one) so u lose 2 lives, 1 for the red one and one for the blue one. But it only has 1 bloon inside itself. The plus 1 comes from the phrasing that it only counts the ones INSIDE so the bloon itself is missing in the counting there.

I can’t believe that they made a Dont Starve x BTD6 crossover. Thank you OrangE for this showcase.

This was an amazing documentary. hats off

Bro this was so entertaining to watch good job

It's so awesome how a game I remember being integral to 7 year old me, that I had all but forgotten about, has a thriving community, consistent updates and an unbelievably high amount of easter eggs

It took me waaaay to long to realize that the 'three' in 'Bloons Pop three' refers just refers to having to align 3 bloons to pop them

"Why not watch the entire history of a videogame i never played nor heard of!" Me at 3:15 Am procrastinating on half my projects

1:33:00 OMFG I played BTDB and now Battles 2 and I DIDN’T KNOW THIS UNTIL NOW, good video and thanks so much for that😂😂😂

This video single-handedly kickstarted my BTD6 addiction...

I’ve rewatched this more times than I’d like to admit, a good video to rewatch during long car rides it never gets boring

man didnt think i would hear aliensrock watching bloons stuff. I always forget he used to play battles a ton at the start of there yt career.

By far one of the best videos I've seen in a long time. This movie was genuinely a roller-coaster of nostalgia, laughs, and confusion. And yes, I watched the ENTIRE thing. 10/10.

The Evil Monkey Baron needs more screentime tbh.

Oh shit. I even forgot how first map in bloons td 5 looks like😭😭 THANK YOU for this nostalgia video (i played from 4th part)

I dont know why this was in my recommended but thank you so much for this beautiful video

Good news everyone!!! Battles 2 is getting one of its biggest updates yet soon, with changes to basically everything still wrong with the game! I think this will finally be the update that gets the back into shape and hopefully will help it regain its player base.

Glad to be apart of the history of Bloons! Great video!

I watched this entire video in one day with no breaks and it was entertaining

1:31:17 "The answer, is a gun" "But if that dont work, use more gun"

Bloons TD3 started a very weird obsession when I was a child. I played around with it, until my 45 year old father decided to try it out. He still plays Bloons games to this day when he gets the chance, It warms my heart and really makes me smile when I see it.

Excellent video, and thank you for the nice comments about the music, I love writing for the Bloons games, and I look forward to bringing you more music in the future. For the fans reading this - To keep up to date with what I am up to you can follow me on Twitter: twitter.com/haywoodtim - you can find me on UKposts, Spotify, and Bandcamp - I also have Facebook group thing. I occasionally lurk on the Ninja Kiwi Discord too. Thanks for the support!

Brother, thank you for this. Whether people have forgotten or reminisced on the older games, Bloons will forever be one of the most monumental games of all time. BTD 6 has some great stuff in it too that changes things up enough to where its amazing but still feels like the older ones. i think if you asked anyone who grew up in the 2000s if they knew what this game was, 99% of them would say yes!

FlashMuseum still has the old Bloons Games!

oh hey I did the graphics and animation for BTD 3 , POP3 and a few othe rolder ninja kiwi games, this was a fun blast from the past thank you! Hehe to be fair there was only 3 of us in the company and we were learning as we went so it was a bit experimental :P

A bit of an addendum: The beekeeper originated in BTD5 before being added to BTD4 mobile, and the dartling gunner and spike factory were BTD4 expansion pack towers that were added into the BTD4 base game afterward.

12:16 The tip is correct because it says:"if a bloon escape you lose as many lives as the bloon had Bloons inside of it plus 1." That's true because for example: a yellow bloon has 3 bloons inside: a green, a blue, and a red so 3+1=4 lives lost 👁️👄👁️

Happy anniversary to this video masterpiece ❤🎉

The random CoC references, the jokes he makes, his voice, everything about this video I loved. A well spent 2 hours, 46 minutes and 32 seconds. edit, 33 seconds, thank you Obiwan.

24:09 that monkey has the glasses of a [BIG SHOT]

50:12 I recently got BTD5 console edition (years after 6 released on mobile), and it’s been a blast! I haven’t played a bloons game since around 2010 or so, and I’ve tried the first 3 Td games as well as a few of the dart throw puzzle games. It’s been great playing TD5, nostalgia overload but with intensely upgraded graphics compared to the others I played. I actually got BTD6 via a Netflix subscription “free app” thing. (Basically what discord premium offers for real games, but for mostly high quality priced mobile games). It’s been fun diving back into bloons. And this video was fantastic in documenting the lifespan. Definitely brought me back to age 9, playing the funny monkey dart games.

WOW I did NOT expect to see Bloons Super Monkey again. I played the crap out of it in my childhood, pretty much perfected the art of popping every single bloon on every level. It wad so much fun. I miss being younger...

Dear [Creator's Name], I wanted to take a moment to express my heartfelt appreciation for your documentary, [Documentary Title]. The way you skillfully approached the subject matter, captivating storytelling, breathtaking cinematography, and extensive research were truly remarkable. It not only entertained me but also expanded my knowledge and challenged my preconceived notions. Your dedication and passion for creating impactful content shine through, and I believe [Documentary Title] deserves recognition and praise. Thank you for bringing this powerful story to life and sharing it with the world. I eagerly anticipate your future projects and the impact they will undoubtedly have. Keep up the excellent work! Sincerely, [Your Name]. I liked my own post ❤

Ninjakiwi seems to be always working to serve the community which is awesome to see, adding in so many fan made maps and features in btd6, constantly keeping really old games updated and even recognizing the community divide in the original bloons player base and making unique games for both sides

I love this video not many people have given a full in depth view on all the bloons games i loved the old btd3 designs

Congratulations OrangE, this video has 9.7M more views than your second most popular one.. for you that is a big step up and I hope you can keep this up

This man is on a journey to return the attention span of the zoomers

absolutely immaculate. finally another episode of full history of a flash puzzle game released 15 years ago

The Anti-Bloon (sometimes referred to as just Anti-Bloon) is the 5th upgrade of Path 2 for the Super Monkey in Bloons TD 6. The Anti-Bloon heavily buffs the Tech Terror's activated ability and increases its base power considerably. The Annihilation ability now does 10,400 damage across a 120 range radius onto up to 2000 Bloons compared to the previous 2,500 damage, 70 range radius, and its ability cooldown decreases from 45s to 30s. The main attacks also gains +4 damage, has +5 pierce, +10 range, for a total of 5 damage, 14 pierce and 82 range. In addition, it now gains the normal damage type. With its ability or the Ultravision crosspath, The Anti-Bloon can pop Camo Bloons too. And lastly, critical hits are improved: the main attack's crits now occur every 13-17 shots instead of every 15-20 shots, and crits deal 50 damage instead of 10, making the damage per shot for a single target range between ~7.647 and ~8.461, with 8 being the average; and the critical 3rd ability usage equates to 15,600 damage. This upgrade costs $76,500 on Easy, $90,000 on Medium, $97,200 on Hard, and $108,000 on Impoppable. Appearance The Anti-Bloon is an entirely robotic monkey bearing massive gold-muzzled, light grey plasma cannons on each arm, with red fins on the muzzle and a red grill on each cannon. These cannons are fed by red tubes linking to its main body and head, which is a sinister dark grey color with ominous red lines on its torso. All its limbs are the same color, with its feet bearing red metal rings around the ankles, and the arms linking directly into its plasma launchers. The Anti-Bloon's head bears the same glowing red eyes as its predecessor, Tech Terror, though with bright lines around where the irises should be, and its mouth, previously bearing white teeth in a grim frown, is now a pair of jagged metal jaws hung open as it appears to be shouting something. The screws for the mouth hinge are clearly visible as well, and it also has a fairly substantial underbite owing to the fact much of its faceplate is sunken-in metal plating of a lighter color. Mechanics The Anti-Bloon massively improves every aspect of Tech Terror, with 5x base damage, (5 normally, 50 on a crit) +5 pierce, (14) +10 range, (82) Normal type damage, (pops any Bloon) and a buffed crit rate of every 13-17 shots. The Annihilation ability now deals 10,400 damage, has 2,000 pierce, and 120 range. Targeting Priorities The Anti-Bloon's main attack has two independently targeting attacks that each shoot projectiles. These projectiles move straightforwardly. First: Targets the first bloon visible within its range. Last: Targets the last bloon visible within its range. Close: Targets the closest bloon visible within its range. Strong: Targets the strongest bloon visible within its range. The Anti-Bloon, just like Robo Monkey, has a secondary targeting option called Alternate Arm, which allows for two simultaneous targeting priorities at any given time. This is controlled by a second targeting setting above the original targeting setting. However, both arms cannot be set on the same targeting priority, and one setting must be changed into a different priority before the other setting can be changed into the desired targeting priority. The Anti-Bloon's annihilation blast, while arbitrarily high, defaults on Close relative to the robot. The Anti-Bloon can access the Camo Prioritization targeting priority if given the 0-5-2 crosspath, which when set allows the The Anti-Bloon to prioritize Camo Bloons before any other bloon type. Summary The Anti-Bloon is an expensive option for dealing huge damage versus bloons of all types, with significantly stronger plasma bolts and provides it with a much stronger annihilation ability for wiping out many bloons across a wider scale. It is a very powerful single-tower option, but its price tag makes it unaffordable outside of large-scale farming. It is possible to purchase Anti-Bloon in a real CHIMPS game, but it is extremely expensive overall, and will likely only be purchasable by at least Round 92. In the extreme late-game (Rounds 101+), The Anti-Bloon only serves purpose as a required separate sacrifice for the Vengeful True Sun God, alongside Legend of the Night. Because its general DPS greatly diminishes in extremely high rounds, it is worth sacrificing The Anti-Bloon for a 2x strength True Sun God. Tips 2-5-0 Anti-Bloon serves as the superior crosspath due to the Plasma Blasts upgrade more than doubling the power of The Anti-Bloon. 0-5-2 Anti-Bloon is mostly restricted to specific challenges where it is impossible to grant the Anti-Bloon with external camo detection. Place the Anti-Bloon in a place where there is a lot of open space, as this will optimize its main power. Even though the Anti-Bloon's ability has an extremely large blast radius, place the Anti Bloon in an area where its range will cover lots of track, in order for its ability to deal damage at its greatest potential.

This is a good video to watch all of to make time go by on christmas night because i cant sleep

I'd rather watch this 3 hour lecture about monke game than a 30 minute college lecture about science.
