Fun little idle game with a neat art style. I didn't like the repeated sound. Can't wait for the update.

Nice art. It was neat to watch the office workers populate the little area on the right.

Didn't really find myself making strategic decisions outside of clicking a button whenever it got highlighted. Thank you for including a mute button; when all the systems were firing simultaneously it was pretty hard on the ears.

This is one of my favorites, really great game! :)

Too good. Loved everything about it, congratulations!

This is just Universal Paperclips. Pretty fun. On top of incremental games already feeling good, the sound speed increase is nice here. The art is really cool, big fan of the way information is conveyed here, just wish there was more useful information to be conveyed through the art, seems like it is mostly there for show.

I enjoyed seeing how much time it took to complete afterwards. Encouraged a more thoughtful approach on a replay rather than just buying at random.

just really, really cool

What can I say... this is why incremental games do so well! I have to say that even though I usually do not like repetitive sounds, I actually found the audio here part of what makes the game so addicting.

ASCII art aesthetic is on point, quite compelling to keep clicking!

it is a bit boring after playing it for 10 mins

Developer

Yeah it‘s meant to be an about 10 minute experience for the jam. I‘d like to add more features and strategy in a post jam version though.

I absolutely played this for much longer than I was expecting.

Felt really polished, nice and fun. And the sounds were incredible I loved them.

OMG I dont think I have ever play a Idler / Clicker game this much! EXTRA POINTS because it looks like a riced arch linux! Great Job hope you get featured

I don't know what was going on but I sure did get rich. lol nice game

Submitted(+1)

pretty addictive ngl haha 

Really polished terminal-like gameplay. 

Had all my prices in scientific notation near the end.

Best out of all the "big number go brrr" game Ive seen, but I might be biased as a Linux-based programmer.

Challenge for you maybe: Would it be possible to fully have it run in a real terminal?

Developer

It might be possible. It would require some changes though and the buttons probably wouldn’t work. But it’s an interesting idea!

Yea, the buttons wouldn't be clickable, but I'm pretty sure you could read arrow keys & enter from stdin- so it'd need to be keyboard controlled. 

But it would be really fun to have as a lil' terminal applet. :P 

Submitted

I have no idea what's going on

Developer

Is that good or bad lol?

Submitted(+1)

yes

Was not expecting to get sucked into this as quickly as I was. Fantastic little evolution arc that had me hooked for what came next. Awesome job!
