Official Homepage revamped + Halloween theme on War Clicks

Userbase of War Clicks players changed a lot in this year! Due to increased popularity of the game, and lots of new features, we’ve now been working with more players in this year than ever before. We’re happy that more and more players stay in the game for longer periods, and also quite a lot of players from the very beginnings of War Clicks are still with us, which is great to see!

Yesterday, we’ve released a revamp of the main part of Homepage, making it more attractive for new players to come in the following months. Feel free to check it out and be sure to let us know what you think about it:

New Homepage

Players playing on the official site can also find some other improvements, not just the homepage/login system, but also when playing you’ll find a new cooler background now populates the space around the game!

But, that’s not all for today…
Soon, you will also find some thematic changes on War Clicks, as Halloween is just around the corner 😉 😊
There will be some great changes and activities going on in the upcoming days, and we are sure you don’t want to miss out!

Have fun 😉

Country vs Country feature (CvC) – summary of purpose and specifications

Hey everyone,

We are happy to be able to finally present the barebone of specifications for the upcoming Country vs Country feature! We have been narrowing down the specifications for CvC the past few weeks, as there were a ton of potential ideas, solutions, problems, issues, tweaks etc.

We had to go over various versions and ideas that introduced unfairness due to time zone differences, had an “online time pressure”, had 0 country concept, were too messy/confusing for players, were too random, had boring mechanics,… Shortly put, there was a lot of things considered we had to reject for various reasons. We ended up with something that we feel fits the game, connects some unconnected parts of the game, introduces a lot of community/social elements, gets rid of “country isolation”, is not time-pressured and creates an ever-evolving/dynamic competitive environment that will get everyone and every country a great experience!

Purpose/goals of CvC

With Country vs Country we want to add a late game feature to the game, that will make the game more fun (especially at late stages) by adding additional depth, giving more meaning to „country“, and connect ALL users in common „events“ and playing goals as well as add a new highly social element to the game. As a late game feature and as a “controllable mechanic” it can also be used in various fun and exciting ways to balance out late game for players and keep the game fun for far longer periods of time, giving users the chance to get more invested with the game.

We also wanted the function to be as simple and easy to understand as possible for users, and not over complicated. Minimum user effort for maximum reward, fun and social gain.

How it works/specs

As the feature is quite extensive there is quite a bit to explain , to get a full idea of how the feature will look like. For those that might find such long specs boring, you might want to scroll-down to check the first graphics  😉 But as a lot of you are anxious of what’s coming, we felt it’s best to give you as much information as possible!

Time Warps are now storable!

In the latest update about the Promo codes, we’ve changed some important functioning of Time Warps. As of now, the Time Warps have been triggered immediately after collected from Daily Tasks and Daily Rewards or bought from the Shop section. But, after some consideration and lots of player reports about bad experience, especially on Daily Tasks & Daily Rewards, we’ve changed Time Warps to instead be a consumable!

So, now after you’ve completed your Daily Task, you’ll collect and store the Time Warp, instead of triggering it immediately. The same goes to Daily Rewards!
Within the Shop we are adding the Store option, but keeping the immediate gain possibility, so you can decide what you like: to trigger the boost just after buying the product or keeping it for a later use. It’s all up to you and what you prefer! 😉

Promo Codes are out!

As we announced the Promo codes will go out somewhere this week, we can confirm that we’ve finished the project and proudly present them today!
Promo codes are a great way to get yourself more boosts! To ensure that, you’ll need to insert the code within Activity Rewards popup (in War Zone; icon next to Spin the Wheel; opens when you’ve reached at least battle 13).

Insert promo codes here..

The addition of promo codes will allow us to use them in various ways – the first and the most important for a regular user are Daily Codes, which will be distributed through our social media channels on Facebook & Twitter every day. Feel free to Like & Follow us there as we would appreciate every new follower/share/retweet/share as a small sign of appreciation & support.

an example of a promo code

We want to give players what they most like, so the rewards should be worthwhile, focused towards boosting your progress in Boot Camp & War Zone.

This is not all, we’ll every now and then hide a valid Promo code somewhere inside the game (those types of actions will be announced through in-game announcements). We’ll also be sharing promo codes via email (for players registered and playing from the official website: https://warclicks.com/ ), so keep an eye on your registered emails as soon something might appear there.

Enough words already, give me the code now! 😀

Development Update – 12th October

Wondering on what’s all coming to War Clicks in the next week?
– The following week should be a great week for our players and for us as a developer of this crazy unique idle clicker game. 😛
Hopefully, the next week we’ll have all ready to go out with the Promo codes -> additional Tools for rewarding purposes should go live at the end of the next week. On top of this update, we’ll try to improve the current collecting/rewarding experience on Daily Tasks. Lots of players have reported the issues, when they were forced to use the reward (ex.: Time Warp) on Daily Tasks immediately once assigned, instead of this we are now working towards the goal to create Time Warps as a storable/ consumable product.

We’ll start working on a huge project of game balancing, as we know that this is something that still needs to be fixed/updated on certain game-points. This project might take us around 2-3 weeks before going live.

Official Press page of the game will be updated in full. We are currently on a half of the road, but counting on finishing the full update in the next week. And there is also the Official Homepage of the game that is currently being re-designed.

Here is a sneak-peak into behind the scenes:

 

New Design of Official Game Homepage

Stay tuned for more updates (the next week we are sharing first specifications on CvC feature -it’s going to be awesome, can’t wait)!

Have fun! 😊

War Clicks with 1 MILLION PLAYS on Armor Games!

A BIG DAY for War Clicks – a first HUGE MILESTONE reached on one of the biggest worldwide gaming platforms – Armor Games!

Let’s check some facts:
1. War Clicks was our first online game published on Armor Games
2. We didn’t launch the game as smoothly as we would want
3. War Clicks ends the first month as the most played new game on Armor Games
4. Months of consistent game improvements/ smashed bugs / updates
5. 8 months after a release we’ve reached the first million of plays
6. The Game is currently presented in the category of Popular Games on their Homepage
7.  Game-rating is increasing consistently
8. Goals for 2019

1. 1.
We weren’t experienced with releasing games on such platforms, so everything was completely new to us and just prepared the game integration for Armor Games. Every platform has some specifics, that every developer needs to follow. It took us quite a bit of time, but finally we got things ready and a soft launch date set. We were excited and thrilled with high expectations for the release!

2.1.
We did prepare the servers well, but we couldn’t test the created accounts offline, so our first real test was on Thursday, 14th February (on the day of a Soft launch), where we experienced several issues, such as double-created accounts, which pushed our rating in the first days way lower than the game should deserve – a 62%! (in our humble opinion 😛 )

3.1. Even though some players experienced described issues, we still managed to get to the end of the month as the MOST PLAYED NEW GAME of February 2018.
That gave us new motivation, new ideas on game extensions, improvements and more…

We already started to work on one of the biggest updates so far, a completely new feature called Countries vs. Countries (CvC). We can’t wait to share more about it, probably in a few days, or lastly when we determined first final specifications of the project.
