[New Shop] Black Market (v1.0.1.3)

Uncover the Black Market in Brotato

Expand your arsenal and your earning potential in Brotato with the addition of the Black Market mod. This mod introduces a clandestine shop where you can acquire powerful new items, known as Contraband, using a special currency earned through dedicated play: Tater Tokens.

A New Way to Earn

Tater Tokens are your key to unlocking the secrets of the Black Market. These tokens are saved across all your runs, meaning every game you play contributes to your future acquisitions. You’ll earn Tater Tokens by successfully completing waves and completing entire runs, with bonus amounts awarded based on difficulty and progression. The more you play, the more you earn, and the more powerful your character can become.

The Black Market Experience

After surviving each wave, there’s a chance your game will present an opportunity to visit the Black Market. This exclusive vendor offers items not found in the standard shop. To ensure a balanced and engaging experience, the mod is designed with long-term progression in mind, so don’t expect to afford everything immediately. The items available are designed to be significant upgrades over base game equipment, with some Permanent Contraband even boosting your Tater Token earnings. Be aware that the Black Market has a time limit; it will not appear after wave 20.

Understanding Contraband

The Contraband available in the Black Market is categorized by visual cues, though these do not represent rarity. Instead, they indicate the type of upgrade:

• White/Common items offer primary stat boosts.
• Green/Uncommon items provide desired tags and miscellaneous perks. Only one tag can be displayed at a time, and purchasing one removes others from the market.
• Purple/Rare items introduce changes to challenge waves, visible in the regular shop after you leave the Black Market.
• Red/Legendary items are permanent boosts that you own forever. Their value increases with each purchase.

Nightmare Mode and More

For those seeking an extra challenge, the Black Market mod includes an optional Nightmare Mode. Activating this mode increases Tater Token earnings by 50% and introduces new enemy types: Champions and Mini-elites. This mod aims for longevity, with potential future updates planned to introduce even more intriguing Contraband. Start accumulating those Tater Tokens today and prepare to dominate the battlefield!
