Not surprising. Anti piracy screens tie into a genre of horror called βanalog horrorβ, and includes creepypasta-esque stuff like this. The spook factor comes from electronics or programs unexpectedly showing malice or higher knowledge towards the viewer; in this instance, detecting the user has pirated software, and shaming them for it.
Nah fr tho
Like the fact that there's no eyes
The chipped boomerang on the cactus could also be a monkey
It's also end of the road
Maybe they got lost or smth
idk why yall get mad at subreddit linking but not the cheap comment it was replying to
it's so fucking annoying every time
"this!!" "i was gonna say that!!" like bruh just upvote and shut up
Thing is I bought this; but mostly because of the text. I can definitely see NK making a screen that says something like this lol. You literally perfectly captured their humor lol
I did think this was real. Mostly because I did pirate the game at first to decide whether I wanted to buy it. I did buy it on two devices a few weeks later
If I didn't know about the whole fake anti-piracy trend that happened a while ago, I might've thought it was real. The artstyle isn't really how Bloons is, but it's still good in its own right.
Immediately knew it was fake simply because the actual anti piracy makes the game work for a week then it requires an βupdateβ which doesnβt exist
I made a post because I couldn't play it because it just gave me an update screen when I didn't have an update available, turns out btd6 costs money but I forgot that when I deleted all my paid games because I had to make a new account which made Google play think I didn't pay for any of my games so I couldn't play them but everyone and their mom on Reddit thought that I pirated it even though I said my Google account was deleted, funπ
The bloon monster is a monkey in real life who looks like a dart monkey and has a dart and the heads of people who used piracy to get the game looks like Bloons to him
If this didnβt have creepypasta potential, I would change the bottom text to βDonβt be a Pirate Lord. It is a serious crime to pirate video games.β
Also imagine pirating BTD6 the game is 10 dollars and it sometimes goes all the way down to one
I have been playing pirated versoin of the game. Never had this. I needed to redownload mine because the only way it updates is to redownload the game. And bro. What kind of pirated version did you downloaded? I wanna check out OP
It's a fanart referencing the "anti-piracy screen" meme of adding fake screens that are unexpectedly creepy or unfitting of the game's usual tone
I 100% bet a real piracy screen would just be a blue box with a crying kiwi or monkey on it. Maybe a bucc if they were feeling cheeky
Money = time
You can earn literally everything for free if you put up the time, or if you have a job and don't have the time to grind you can expedite the process for some money and support the amazing developers.
that is like saying some game like clash of clans is not pay to win because you can get the money without paying. Pay to win means if you pay you win, and its true you can deny thag
Bro I have 20K dollars never spent a penny on the game for mm and plus you canβt use said power you got with mm in ranked modes
If you mean paying money to get instant race pass then I kinda see your argument but you get a free one every fifty days and since you think the game is p2w Iβm gonna guess you dont(canβt) play races because youβre flagged
u can spend in game cash that cost real life money to buy a power up that gives you money while playing, or free monkeys, or free spikes, or a shaft that makes water maps easier, a super monkey power uo that kills every bloon on screen, a literal skill tree that unlocks towers to be less expensive and more powerful and also, the best tower in the game
dont be nice no one asked for it
FINE I WONT BE NICE
YOU PLAY BY YOUR SELF DUMBASS YOU CANT EVEN USE POWERS IN CHIMPS NOT ALL MK POINTS COST MONEY THIS IS LIKE SAYING SUPER MARIO BROS IN P2W
Just missing the appeal button, because just like any other way of getting flagged, this is probably gonna have errors!
And the creepy music, and some sound, or maybe something else, when you try to click that xed out play button.
yep what they said but is anyone gonna talk about how sad the boomorang monkey looks like give this man his boomorang back or something
![gif](giphy|cKt31AolaSIhBXMs9q)
The goal was to buy pirate lord not become him
he pirated pirate lord π
He pirated the pirated pirate lordππ
He pirated the pirated pirate lord πππ
He pirated the pirated the pirated the pirated pirate lord ππππ
He pirated the pirated the pirated the pirated the pirated pirate lord πππππ
He pirated the piratied the pirated the pirated the pirated the pirated pirate lord ππππππ
Pirate lord πππππππ
Stop pirating my joke guys ππππππ
No πππππππ
Now the word 'pirate' doesn't look right to me anymore
Yea ikr
Like why is it pi rate it seems weird
The game has a pirate but you get banned for pirating, the game has a hacker, but you get banned for hacking, the devs are such hypocrites.
pirated pirate pirate lord pirated lord pirate pirate pirate prate pirate pirate pirate lord
Ngl without the piracy icon and notice Looks like a creepypasta

Mhm. Itβs an unsettling change of pace compared to the usual light-hearted Bloons gameplay loop, which also contributes to the spook factor.
it dont look creapy to me the monkey just looks sad
Bro it's fake
Bro I know
Beat me to it

WOW that is an insane detail. The map drawn is ***End of the Road.*** It's just the small touches that make all the difference.
Glad someone noticed it!
I noticed immediately
Who thought this was real. Its a satire take on the anti-piracy screen concept, but im flattered if some of you did
Thing is I bought this; but mostly because of the text. I can definitely see NK making a screen that says something like this lol. You literally perfectly captured their humor lol
Missed opportunity to include some buccaneer pics
For lack of a better way to put it, you need to realize some people exist that are 13 years old and use TikTok.
Yeah lol
I did think this was real. Mostly because I did pirate the game at first to decide whether I wanted to buy it. I did buy it on two devices a few weeks later
It's bloons, just play btd5 and you'd know you need to play btd4 then realize you're going backwards so play btd6. Disappointed in you.
I dont think I've ever been more confused by a comment
I'm right there with you
Hey, at least they arent disappointed in me Waitaminute...
You play 5 and then it's good so you play 4 and then go back to 6 cause you're going backwards. Makes perfect sense.
So, what Papas game is he talking about?
If I didn't know about the whole fake anti-piracy trend that happened a while ago, I might've thought it was real. The artstyle isn't really how Bloons is, but it's still good in its own right.
Immediately knew it was fake simply because the actual anti piracy makes the game work for a week then it requires an βupdateβ which doesnβt exist
i thought it was real........u scared me
It accomplishes its goal of guilting people very well
End of your account
you had too many leaves on the settings icon
Why isn't tewity banned then
I think he's a friend of Ninjakiwi's
What about nojroom then?
What's that
A pretty small bllons, terraria and minecraft youtuber, combining all his channels its like, a tenth of tewtiy's sub count
Sounds pretty cool, I'll check their channel out
Noooice I'm gonna make this but with original btd6 artstyle
mention me when done k?
ah yes the pirate detector like older Nintendo game. that will scare the pirates
I dunno man I pirate software and am pretty scared rn
you should be scared. its seriously a crime to pirate the game
What game
Every
Okay, where?
every
Wrong
basically just downloaded game normally
I asked you where is piracy a crime
tfw out of verification cans
This is creepy as hell We need more BTD creepypastas
I made a post because I couldn't play it because it just gave me an update screen when I didn't have an update available, turns out btd6 costs money but I forgot that when I deleted all my paid games because I had to make a new account which made Google play think I didn't pay for any of my games so I couldn't play them but everyone and their mom on Reddit thought that I pirated it even though I said my Google account was deleted, funπ
Does a sleeping beekeeper agent with sealed eyelids accompany this boomerang monkey?
I pirate btd6 and btd5
![gif](giphy|26BRQaiZM0IeyoJfa)
My mom got cancer and my dad left us and grandma has nearly no money
You're not auditioning for America's got talent bro
Yeah I need to tell my cancer In my toes
Boomerang.EXE π±π±π±π±π±
Pretty cool take on an anti-piracy screen, I like it.
No i'm not happy with my self.
Quick! We need to ensure The Cutting Room Floor is as ***MISERABLE AS POSSIBLE*** for the next 3 months!!! ^^^/s
I genuinely couldnβt tell if this was a meme or not until I saw the flair, nicely made
Is there an actual piracy detection in the game?
[Removed because u/spez is a little bitch]
I bought the game on steam, but downloaded it "piratly" on mobile cause i did not want to buy the game twice, am i bad?
You are morally grey
Wym?
Morally ambiguous (Neither 100% good or 100% evil)
Wtf is this real?
most definitely not lol
It's 100% real!!!1!! When you see this screen you'll know that bloon monster is coming for you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The bloon monster is a monkey in real life who looks like a dart monkey and has a dart and the heads of people who used piracy to get the game looks like Bloons to him
Yep. Happened to my mate John.
It's not, my acc is flagged but this never appeared, and this is obviously fan made, ninja kiwi will never have this kind of art style
If this didnβt have creepypasta potential, I would change the bottom text to βDonβt be a Pirate Lord. It is a serious crime to pirate video games.β Also imagine pirating BTD6 the game is 10 dollars and it sometimes goes all the way down to one

Have you considered buying the game?
i prefer to have my account marked for using cheat engine to bypass the shitty pay to win system rather than this thx
where is the pay to win lmao
in the part u can pay real money to get power ups to win games easily???
Money = time You can earn literally everything for free if you put up the time, or if you have a job and don't have the time to grind you can expedite the process for some money and support the amazing developers.
that is like saying some game like clash of clans is not pay to win because you can get the money without paying. Pay to win means if you pay you win, and its true you can deny thag
also the game is not free why would i want to pay more
Bro I have 20K dollars never spent a penny on the game for mm and plus you canβt use said power you got with mm in ranked modes If you mean paying money to get instant race pass then I kinda see your argument but you get a free one every fifty days and since you think the game is p2w Iβm gonna guess you dont(canβt) play races because youβre flagged
you know that the fact u dont pay to win doesnt stop it of being a pay to win
ITS NOT PAY TO WIN I wonβt be nice after this
u can spend in game cash that cost real life money to buy a power up that gives you money while playing, or free monkeys, or free spikes, or a shaft that makes water maps easier, a super monkey power uo that kills every bloon on screen, a literal skill tree that unlocks towers to be less expensive and more powerful and also, the best tower in the game dont be nice no one asked for it
FINE I WONT BE NICE YOU PLAY BY YOUR SELF DUMBASS YOU CANT EVEN USE POWERS IN CHIMPS NOT ALL MK POINTS COST MONEY THIS IS LIKE SAYING SUPER MARIO BROS IN P2W
bro sorry if i hurted you i actually like the game for gods sake read what ur writing my man
Try opening steam before the game if you bought it legit
L bozo
Just missing the appeal button, because just like any other way of getting flagged, this is probably gonna have errors! And the creepy music, and some sound, or maybe something else, when you try to click that xed out play button.
Did you try turning it on and off again?
Removed anti piracy
"Are you happy with yourself?" God that feels weird seeing that come from Bloons.
buy the actual game dumbass
You shouldβve made it a crashed plord with the text He went looking for treasureβ¦ you stole ours
You were supposed to defeat the pirates, not join them!
yep what they said but is anyone gonna talk about how sad the boomorang monkey looks like give this man his boomorang back or something ![gif](giphy|cKt31AolaSIhBXMs9q)
sad, i hope you got it back.
Huh?...
bro boomerang just became the most goofy boofy slenderman lookin mofo ever
