The Typer Was Replaced, Tap Tap Loot Release and Improvements

The Miner Was Replaced · published 13 Apr 2026, 11:27 UTC · build 22761599

Hey everyone 👋

I’ve got something fun to share today.

A few months ago, we had a fun idea: What if you could use The Farmer Was Replaced to automate another game? Here’s a little experiment we did on that:

Together with the creators of the typing games Tap Tap Loot (which officially releases today 🎉) and Bongo Cat we built an integration to automate their games. Now, you can automate your typing using the new tap() function in The Farmer Was Replaced. 😄

Check out both games here:

The Typer Was Replaced Sale


⌨️ How it works

  1. Get Bongo Cat for free or Tap Tap Loot with the launch discount.

  2. Update The Farmer Was Replaced now and automate the other two games without lifting a finger.

At least after you've typed in this little, clever code:

while True:
tap()

🛠️ Fixes & Improvements

This update also includes a few fixes and improvements:

First of all, a big thank you to Zoroark Zwart and the other community members who contributed valuable improvements to the \\_\\_builtins\\_\\_.py file, which improves the experience of using external code editors.

  • You can now pass arguments directly when spawning a drone and no longer need to capture them in a function: spawn_drone(function, *args)

  • The broken shift-tab unindent feature has been fixed on macOS. This still conflicts with the Steam shortcut, but nothing can be done about this.

  • Cmd shortcuts now work by default on macOS.

As always, thank you for all the feedback and support. It really helps a lot. ❤️
Have fun automating your typing 😄
