Game Updates

fixed achievements

Dragon and Balrogg bosses no longer cause a "game over" and force you to prestige if you fail to beat them, instead they allow you to carry on just like Goblin King and Golem. This was done because I believe it no longer serves the intended purpose I initially envisioned and it only made the game less fun. Buffed Great Duke Cannon base damage by 20. Buffed Artillery Mastery scaling. Buffed Air Strike scaling and doubled the bonus from Nuclear Research and Gyrocopters. Slightly reduced gold costs of Great Duke Cannon upgrades. Buffed POWER OVERWHELMING by +0.5 damage per tier. Buffed C.L.U.S.T.E.R.P.I.C.K. and added another 2 tiers to it. Buffed MEGAPICK base damage and scaling with miners. Fixed Key Master sometimes not applying properly to Den drop chance. Fixed Triune Prism sometimes not properly counting Stonecallers. Fixed Laser Cannons incorrectly rounding their cooldown. Fixed artifacts displaying English non-localized names in the hover-over tooltip. Fixed Sanctification ritual not properly updating and saving its costs Fixed Enchant Primal Power and Zealous Fury to display correct warning message. Fixed being able to use ritual hotkeys before the rituals were unlocked Fixed Laser Cannons and Great Duke Cannons losing their mithril cost after reload. More buffs and fixes to follow. I also plan to make Ascension more rewarding. Plus various QoL stuff you guys suggested, and more.

This has completely blown past my wildest expectations.Your support means the world to meI want to thank every single person from the bottom of my heart who took the time to leave a kind comment and show their support. Every time I read your words, it truly warms my heart. I absolutely love seeing how much fun you are having with the game.What comes next?I have some ideas for new content for Loot Loopi!

Hello, Miners!Update 7.1.0 is now available. This time, we focused on making the game clearer, smoother, and more enjoyable in everyday play.We refreshed many pop-ups and screens, improved the flow of common actions, simplified several systems, and fixed many issues reported by players.Due to groundbreaking changes, we must enforce the update. Starting rollout, you won’t be able to play versions below 7. Thank you for understandingWe will monitor the new version and support release along with required patches.Refreshed windows and a more consistent interfaceIn Update 7.1.0, many game windows received a visual and UX refresh. This includes return-to-game popups, character appearance, shop, market, offers, quests, passes, mailbox, trainer, and equipment screens. We also improved quests, milestones, passes, special offers, favorite item filtering, the continue battle popup, defeat popup, Mitar Fortress event, and many smaller details affecting stability and overall comfort.The new views are more consistent, easier to read, and better organized. Rewards are now highlighted more clearly, layouts are cleaner, and animations feel smoother.These changes should make daily interactions faster, more intuitive, and less cluttered.A redesigned Fuze systemWe also completely changed the UX of the Fuze system.The goal was to simplify the experience and make the system easier to understand and use. The new flow should feel clearer for players, reduce unnecessary friction, and make Fuze-related actions more approachable during regular gameplay.To speed up even more, lower-tier items can be fuzed into higher-quality gear in bulk. If you want to prevent item being fuzed, make sure to add it to favorites.No lootboxes inside gameplayCurrently, we’ve been rewarding you with dozens or hundreds of small lootboxes that are stacked inside your inventory without any notice. Although we can’t automatically open them for you. Every Random-Gear, Random-Jewelery, or any random-reward, will now be ...
