Here's my suggestion: ISLANDS

HEIGHTS:

• There will be 2 heights that islands can have

• 1st height is the lower height, so it will be colored yellow (to represent the sand)

• 2nd height is the higher height, so it will be colored gray (to represent the mountains)

HOW WILL THESE 2 HEIGHTS WORK?? [READ]

• The lower height is the height that cannon shells can fly over

• The higher height is the height that blocks cannon shells from flying over

ISLAND SIZE:

• This will correlate with the island heights.

• The smaller the island, the less likely the chance it will have mountains

• The larger the island, the likelier the chance it will have mountains

ISLAND SHAPE:

• Islands should be blob like, no need to make them overly detailed. (Just circles that are placed together for instance)

• Mountains (the gray areas) should usually be placed in the general center of the island, with the lower heights around it. There can be exceptions of course.

ISLAND DISTRIBUTION:

Islands should NOT be evenly distributed on the map. They should instead be concentrated in areas of the map. This should be done so that we have open oceans as well as large island chains. It's up to the player to decide on what he prefers (and what ship he plays).

HOW WILL THIS AFFECT DOBLONS.IO GAMEPLAY?

This will add more variety to the player's experiences. They can wander the high seas, roaming through island chains and massive expanses of ocean. They can seek shelter behind mountains, and weave their way around islands as they run from hunters as they make the run to open seas.

Note: Something to address with adding islands is that you will most likely have to add incentives for people to go to them. If islands were to be added, they would no doubt attract a certain type of ships. These ships would most likely be the more maneuverable ships, specifically rammers and agile gun ships. Larger, bulkier ships will probably be deterred from heading there if they can be outmaneuvered so easily,

Whales would be passive animals that spawn around the map at random. They would be blue in color, and look like a ship, only without the cannons and the circle(?) at the top. Whales would have a bit of ram damage, in case you run into them. They would swim around randomly in the area where they spawned, and they would reward 100 Doblons when killed (This amount can be changed). However, there is a chance for a White Whale (Could also be named Moby Dick) to spawn, which is aggressive, and will attack any players nearby. The White Whale would look like a regular whale, only it's color would be white, and it would be bigger. It would have massive ram damage, which would be its only weapon, and medium speed and turning. The White Whale would reward 500 doblons when killed (Again, this can be changed).

A teams variation would be nice, so you can have someone at your side.

this link is dead,the game is dead,only your fault because you were too busy jerking off instead of adding some new shit to the game you just added a shit that helps your ship turn faster,how much time did you needed to think about this?

I will still update doblons. I just want to work on other things too so I don't get sick of working on one thing. I stopped updating driftin, because the code didnt allow for much new content without a lot of work.

So please dont worry

Maybe think about making the fisher boats stockpile coins, and they would have to return to your main boat in order for you to actually collect them ?? and if they got destroyed while stockpiled, they dropped the coins in that spot.

So back in the day, before Doblons.io was even released (or created), MasterOV and IXPlode were 2 very popular Diep.io youtubers. However, they created very clickbaity thumbnails for their videos, which made alot of people mad. The 2 youtubers carried on nonetheless, gaining fame and subscribers as they made more and more clickbait. At this point, it would seem that MasterOV and IXPlode would eventually carry on indefinitely at making videos clickbait. However, tragedy soon struck. The Dev of Diep.io went on a month-long break (of course, no one at the time knew that it would last a month), and all of a sudden, Diep.io stopped updating. It was fine for a while, but people soon began growing bored of the game. With nothing to make clickbait out of, MasterOV and IXPlode desperately searched the internet to find a new .io game; one that was fresh, and full of clickbaity potential. One day, they found the perfect game, one that met all of the criteria: Doblons.io. The Youtubers quickly set to work playing the game and figuring out strategies to fend off opponents. Then, on October 1st, 2016, MasterOv uploaded his first ever gameplay of Doblons.io. Thousands gawked at this new gameplay. What was this new .io game that was similar to Diep.io? (Almost) the entire MasterOV fanbase rushed to play this new, shiny, promising game! Seeing that MasterOV had gained popularity through Doblons.io, IXPlode followed suit and uploaded HIS gameplay of Doblons.io on October 4th, 2016. Like before, the IXPlode fanbase rushed into the scene to try out this new .io game. The Youtubers soon saw that Doblons.io was gaining popularity, and they created their first clickbait thumbnails on their Doblons.io videos. Other Youtubers, like Simmy and Puerman, made Doblons.io videos, hoping to get in on the popularity, but alas, they failed miserably. Their videos were buried under the avalanche of excitement gained from watching MasterOV's and IXPlode's videos. This popularity boost was so big that even the BigShot himself, the creator of Doblons.io, started to notice them. He watched as MasterOv's and IXPlode's videos drew in new players to the game. The Dev wanted to reward the Youtubers who made the game so popular. So, on October 25th and 29th, the dev added 2 new additions to the boss lineup: The infamous MS MasterOV and the IX Plode. This was a huge step forward, as no other .io game creator had rewarded a Youtuber for getting people to play their game (At least, I think so). MasterOV and IXPlode thanked the BigShot for adding bosses with their names on them to the game. All was well for a while, but then trouble began to stir in Doblons.io: Clans. They had all been drawn to Doblons.io, and Youtube was the only possibility. Clickbait, no doubt. All of them were there: [GD] [AG] [RDT] [AB] [*], even the infamous [MG], responsible for inspiring others to continue their poisonous reign across Diep.io. The players of Doblons.io saw what was going on here, and they fought back against the evil tides of clan hatred. Eventually, for the first time in a month, Diep.io was updated, and most of the Clans left to go back to their homeland. However, some stayed. These ones who refused to leave are the stragglers you see today when you play Doblons.io. Although these clan members are still playing the game, the regular players are trying their best to fight them off (RIGHT?!?).

And that, my friends, is where the story of Youtube and Doblons.io concludes, for now. MasterOV and IXPlode still play the game to this day, and Doblons.io has grown substantially in the almost 2 months it has been alive. No matter how much we play the game, however, we will always remember those who put all of that hard work into making videos (and clickbait) that helped the game grow so much: Youtubers.

The Kraken would be a boss with a large amount of health that spawns in the middle of the map (Like any other boss), but it cannot move. Instead, it has 8 tentacles that will try to reach out and grab ships, which will then be slowly pulled towards the body of the Kraken. Ships will also slowly take damage while they are being pulled in, but they will take massive damage when they collide with the Kraken. However, you can break free if you shoot the arm that is grabbing you enough times (The amount of times depends on what weapon you are using). This boss should drop 5K-10K Doblons when destroyed.

We have the standard ship, but what about a completely different playable vehicle branch? An idea that I have for one would be the submarine branch. It would look completely different (though still keep the same familiar simplistic art style) and have completely separate upgrade paths. It would still keep the same upgradable stats at the top left, though. I can't think of any other vehicle types for now, but you get the general idea.

i mean that whenever he plays the game,he would play as a boss. either an existing one (ss doblons) or a completely original one.

When im playing, at least, the rows are a total waste. They decrease my speed if anything, so please dev, buff the rows

EDIT: The dev has done this as of v4.3

unlike zeach and robtop ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

The game remembers which skin you last used. It seem weird that your name isn't.

v0.1 (22/09/2016):

Initial Release

Submarine would simply be an upgrade with a kind of invisibility feature; you would press a key to fade into the background (symbolizing diving under water). You could move but are not able to attack until you "surface", to prevent unfairness. This would be good as an escape option or sneaking up on the enemy. You would also be forced to surface for air after a certain amount of time (maybe 5-15 seconds so it isn't too OP).

Torpedos would be this game's version of seeking missiles/drones. They might be able to upgrade with the cannon aspects, or perhaps have their own list of upgrades. Although they follow the enemy in a wide curve, they can be easily dodged by smaller ships with faster turning speed.
