It's certainly a unique looking game I'll give you that, however it can get dull after a while, what it needs is maybe a challenge to kill x amount and then you have to satisfy him and kill the lifeforms as a clicker it does the job, but I think you need more powers and something to make the game more interesting, as it is it feels too minimalistic.

Maybe this just isn't my type of game really.

Developer

There are goals and rewards for killing different amounts of lifeforms. How many did you get to?

I got to what must have been wave 3? Then the earth got too hot, I thought the game's pacing was a bit slow in areas maybe you could have improved that: I personally didn't see much other than a few guys pop up and disappear around the earth: honestly, I had limited time to play your game if I didn't experience that it's likely I lost interest due to how long it took.

AHAHHA loved the little dying noises. I went a bit too hard on global warming and got that ending first oops.
You've made a nice little clicker, well done!

Had a fun time with this one. It was nicely polished and enjoyable. I destroyed the planet because it got too hot lol. Great work!

Developer

Thank you! :D

I enjoyed this game a lot! I love that you can get different endings!
I would have preferred having a tangible number to get to in combination with the timer, but honestly after a few playthroughs I figured to just get as many guys as possible. All in all its a really fun romp!

And also, I got all the endings!! After seeing some of the other comments I thought it was going to be quite hard to get the one of the ending but I got it pretty quickly :)

Developer

Omg thank you so much!! I’m glad you didn’t struggle too hard haha xD

I feel so bad that people have been getting frustrated trying to get the endings because it’s too hard so I’m glad you did at least!

I'm always a big fan of idle games, my only complaint here is that it seems mandatory you go for faster reproduction. It seems like the story upgrades are based on how many you kill, but if you don't go for reproduction you just can't hit the number before the timer runs out. Overall I enjoyed the game.

Developer

Thank you for the feedback! <3

I liked the game, tho the clicking did get a little tedious. Could have more things to buy, but other than that, it's a good game

Developer

Thank you for the feedback!

This is a cool idea, though I think having an idle game that requires hand-eye coordination is a bit much and can feel a bit tedious. The lose condition is also too throttling and (may just be me) I died too quickly.

I think what could improve this a bit would be something that makes it easier to click on people. Maybe clicking the earth can kill a random person, or there can be projectiles from where you click that hit multiple people at a time. I like the upgrade system but I wasn't given enough time to explore it. I found it unclear when I was going too slow as well, is there a visual indicator?

Also while the screams were funny... to be honest they got a bit annoying lol.

Developer

Yeahhh I agree, if I had more time I would have liked to add more variety and accessibility to the gameplay, as well as some clarity with the loss state; a lot of people I've talked with seem to be mentioning that. There is a timer on the left indicating how close you are to it but I never really explained what it's for, nor is it that noticeable. I appreciate the critique, thank you very much!

Okay, this game's kinda awesome??? It's simple, everything goes back to killing more and it adds to the dopmaine loop. It's real nice. Good job!
(P.S. Had to turn up the sound from the settings. The screams had me giggling lol)

Developer

Thank you so much!! x)

Yeah I wish I had more time so I could figure out what was going on with the audio settings lol, I'm just glad it wasn't a game-breaking bug or anything! haha

Died too soon, would recommend a faster gameplay from the get go. Good job
