Give new players entering the game a chance to catch up with other players.
To do this, please add packs with medals and keys to the amber store. Godai bonuses significantly affect progress. and two of these bonuses depend on the number of medals and keys.
the second option is to add a VIP 2 bonus to the store, which increases the drop of keys and medals.

Why would I need to catch up with other players? It's a single player game and there would be no benefit of this?
I think keys drop enough - I mean, after you finished the first challenges, you will definitly collect more than you need. Yeah, it takes a while... but isn't that the purpose of an idle game?

As far as I know, there are plans to make rating tables and create a competitive aspect in the game. Now there is also a rating table, but the players fill it out themselves.

btw adding packs with medals and keys wont really make players be able to catch up to endgame players since we can also just buy them

great, this is exactly what the developer needs.

I understood what you wanted to say.
but you just confirmed that this offer is beneficial for everyone, and not just for beginners who want to catch up with those who have been playing for a long time.
This offer is beneficial to everyone who wants to speed up their progress and is beneficial to the developer as another offer in the amber store.

I think that it keys should just be purchasable in the shop at any point with the medals I don't think they should be purchasable since that part is fine taking a bit longer

But how does buying keys speed up the process? You will only need them for the weekly challenges and later for increasing the incomes of Gold per second. Before you get to the point, that you can use keys to do so, you must have collected a big amount of elixir, which means - you will have enough spare keys flying around.
Trust me when I tell you, there is a point (and its not late end game), where you don't know what to do with all these keys... because you can't buy the upgrades and you'll only need 20-23 per week, but with the daily collectables and the weekly events, you will get way more than the required keys.
Medals is another story.. but then once again, if you just put a pack with 50 medals in.. where is the achievement in collecting them. Also... will those counted to the achievements or not (don't know if its even possible to separate between bought and collected medals), so maybe a cost reduction would be more reasonable than a pack with that stuff.

if you ask this question, it means you don’t understand how much the Godai elements associated with keys and medals speed up progress. You probably don’t know how many keys and medals have been invested into Godai elements by top players.

with the help of a good pet build you can quickly learn research, the elixir tree and buildings. With the help of treats you can quickly increase the level of the passive bonus of pets, with the help of amber you can study legendary things. but you cannot progress quickly in the two godai elements associated with keys and medals. and this is the bottleneck in accelerating the progress of every beginner. here you will always lag behind those who play from the very beginning. and the gap in medals will become larger and larger, because the number of medals received now determines how many medals you receive for each event.

I know how that works, please do not assume that I wouldn't know. (Btw. medals are not consumed, so technically they would just stack around for no reason...when all pets are upgraded and the medal upgrades are done, which at some point will happen to every player)
Once again - as of now there would be no need for anyone to catch up and you still would have the difficulty to decide if the achievements for the medals need to be changed, or the ingame mechanics need to be changed to be able to separate between bought/collected (earned) ones. Because in my opinion it makes a difference if I had to earn my achievements or if I just spend some money to get those.
And to make it clear: I'm not against IAP, especially for a free game like TapNinja and I already spend some money for the game to support the dev's and I would do that in the future as well, but I need a better reason than "catch up" for a future update, that we don't know, when it will arrive.

The problem is that there is no way for new players to accelerate this bonus. it is related to the time you spent in the game.
hasty berry
But that screen you show is related on completed tasks. Not on collected medals. See here (from the patch note:
More medals - more fun
To fight the Medal drought the Challenge Upgrade Track has been implemented - by simply completing Weekly Challenge levels you will progress on this upgrade track, completing the track will unlock extra levels and extra Medals for completing Challenge levels.
Buying medals wouldn't help here.

It’s strange that again you don’t understand what I’m writing about. The tops have this strip with medals of a higher level, which means they receive more medals for each event. which means a beginner will not be able to catch up with them in terms of the number of medals, because this strip with a bonus to medals cannot be accelerated. It is the packs with medals that will help reduce the difference between the tops and beginners.
hasty berry
I understand what you wanted to say. But the strip with the bonus is not filled with medals… it’s filled, when you complete a challenge. Therefore, buying medals will not help to solve that.
If it was filled with won medals - I should now have way more then the 66 possible (for me, due to 22 possible challenges) - but compared to yesterday I only got 66 more, because I was able to complete 22 challenges with 3 stars.
Strange… yeah, maybe. Because you won’t understand that sometimes… you can’t just catch up by getting some IAPs. Strange that you are not willing to understand, that to catch up the game mechanics for this specific topic would need a change, so therefore there must be other ways…
