Official announcement - "Apology for Server Issues & Compensation for All Players" (June 30, 2026):
Hello, this is the <TBH: Task Bar Hero> development team.

■ Costume Reward Notice
The costume rewards we previously promised have been delayed to sometime in July, as our development schedule was pushed back while addressing this server issue.
We apologize for not keeping our promise and will develop and update them as quickly as possible.
We are sharing previews of the two costumes currently in development along with this announcement. (These are still in development, and the designs may change by the time they are actually distributed.)
■ Security & Sanctions Notice
We are continuously improving our security to block cheaters and bots.
Permanent sanctions will continue to be enforced against offenders, so we kindly ask that you refrain from cheating to help maintain a healthy play environment.
Once again, we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience, and we will repay your patience with a more stable service. Thank you.

The Coin Breakdown - What Each Day Gets You
The 70-coin distribution isn't random - each day has a specific mix. Here's what stands out:
| Day | Common (1st Anniv.) | Uncommon (10th Anniv.) | Rare (50th Anniv.) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Day 1 | 9 (K6 + E3) | 1 (E) | - |
| Day 2 | 9 (K4 + E5) | - | 1 (K) |
| Day 3 | 6 (E6) | 3 (K) | 1 (K) |
| Day 4 | 4 (E4) | 5 (K) | 1 (K) |
| Day 5 | - | 9 (K6 + E3) | 1 (K) |
| Day 6 | - | 9 (K5 + E4) | 1 (E) |
| Day 7 | - | 8 (E8) | 2 (K1 + E1) |
The pattern is clear: early days are loaded with common 1st Anniversary coins, while later days shift to rarer 10th and 50th Anniversary editions. Days 2-7 each contain one 50th Anniversary coin (6 total), which are likely to be the most valuable pieces in this set.
The Kingdom vs. Empire split is interesting - Kingdom coins appear more frequently in the 10th and 50th tiers, while Empire coins dominate the 1st Anniversary tier. Collectors trying to complete full sets of both factions will need all 7 days.
Costume Skins Are Delayed - What Happened
This is the most significant correction from earlier expectations. The dev team explicitly states the costume rewards have been delayed to "sometime in July" because "our development schedule was pushed back while addressing this server issue."
Two preview images were shared (Ranger and Hunter), but the announcement is clear: "these are still in development, and the designs may change." There is no July 2 delivery date for skins - only the coins start on July 2.
For context, the original promise on June 1 said "6 DLC costumes to be given free as compensation." Today's announcement is essentially saying: we haven't forgotten, here are previews, but server fixes took priority. The delivery window is now a vague "July" with no specific date.
This isn't great news, but it's honest. The team chose server stability over rushing cosmetic content, which is the right call for a game with 490K concurrent players.
Eligibility Pitfalls - Don't Miss the Deadline
There are two critical requirements buried in the fine print:
- Update before July 1. Not July 2 when coins start - before July 1. The announcement explicitly states: "If you do not update to the latest version, your sign-up data will not be registered on the server, and you will be excluded from the compensation." This is a hard cutoff.
- Registered before July 1, 24:00 KST. That's July 1, 08:00 AM PDT / 4:00 PM BST. New accounts created after this time get nothing.
If you're reading this on July 1 or later and haven't updated yet - update now. That's the single thing that can lock you out of all 70 coins.
6,180 Accounts Banned - The Cheating Crackdown
In a separate June 25 announcement, the team sanctioned 6,180 confirmed cheating accounts. This is a significant number for a game that's been live barely over a month.
The June 30 announcement reinforces this with a Security & Sanctions section: "Permanent sanctions will continue to be enforced against offenders." Combined with the Steam Market's new 4-slot, 8-hour cooldown rules, the anti-cheat posture is getting more aggressive. This is a net positive for legitimate players - fewer bots means a healthier market economy.
Bottom Line
The good: 70 commemorative coins with a clear daily plan. The 50th Anniversary coins (6 total) will likely hold long-term collector value. Eligibility rules are straightforward if you update in time.
The mixed: Costume skins are delayed again. Previews exist but no firm delivery date. The dev team is prioritizing server stability over cosmetics - right call, but frustrating if you were waiting for the Ranger skin.
Action items: Update your game before July 1. Log in daily July 2-8. Don't miss Day 2, 4, and 7 - those have the Empire 50th Anniversary coins (rarest in the set).
