Very nice! However it feels like the "pays more" upgrades don't work, I'm still only ever getting 20 coins per full jar, am I understanding wrong?

Loved the game! I kinda wanted to see a bit more of the Tardis hihi, and the grind towards the end is a little repetitive (I'm still somehow short a ton of lanterns to finish all upgrades so I'd enjoy a little tweak in that direction), but overall I had a great time start to finish. The OST is very nice too!
Ok so I like the looks and the aesthetics etc but this game is basically identical to other three games I played just this week - the last one was about a black hole, "Singularité" I think? Exact same mechanics, just 3d instead of 2d, and again, there's others. I don't know which came first (I liked this one more tbh) but this current wave of ai-coded games that are all identical to each other is... quite frustrating tbh.
This isn't necessarily aimed at this game or at its author, which I thank for the nice game, I'm just an old person ranting at clouds I guess.
Ok I managed to finish it! definitely needs an autosell of some sorts, also there's a couple of visual bugs - the auto refund tooltip has no text in it, and it's not clear that you gain the things that you can spend by clicking onthe spirit icon on the top left. needs more help text overall, or more emphasis on what's clickable! also the potential softlock as i said before. good luck with your game!
Oh I wasn't complaining about the reposting, mostly I said it because the comments talking about how it was hard to understand what's going on were on previous posts! I feel the struggle! By starting a new game from settings you can get a mini tutorial which explains that you don't click the third button, rather you hold it down, but now I managed to softlock myself because I don't have enough resources to do anything!
Very nice, love the aesthetics! The two changes you added are very welcome, at this point my only complain is that once you run out of upgrades to buy, you have no choice but to grind Gary 30+ times (max damage I can do is 108M), which is a bit repetitive, would be nice to have some sort of mechanism to reduce that a bit!
Furthermore, it's explained nowhere that the Hush also increases travel time of probes, took me a while of double checking to verify it.
Lastly, it'd be very nice to have a "cancel expedition" button, maybe available only until 50% of the expedition - clicking it makes the probe return thus spending the same amount of time to come back, so if you cancel after 10s it'll take 10s to come back, cancel at 30 and it takes 30 to come back, and after 50% you can't cancel because there's less time left to come back than it has elapsed. Canceling research could also be interesting.
On a balance level, all civilization research appears basically useless to me, I have always been able to finish building the Ark waaaay before making my way through all green research. Tho not sure what a good solution can be.
I love this - I am a sucker for cosmic transcendental stuff. There's a couple quirks tho, namely there's entries in the Codex that I am not sure how to unlock (one under World and then another each under each of the people). And the hidden achievements. This needs a wiki <-:
As far as suggestions, the newer improved probes are nice tho I preferred the previous way under some aspects, mostly the fact that it kept spamming the same planet for resources, effectively decuplicating your income... and if I wanted to explore then I could just manually send a single probe to do so. Now probes can trigger the ending, which is not very ideal imo. Maybe consider adding a "only automate X expeditions" so I can set it to, say, 2, and keep using the others manually?
Another thing is that having the automation toggle both under the embers page AND under the probe page is awesome and made me want to have the same toggles also in the motes page and the research page!
Nice aesthetics. There's no way to put it to/from fullscreen while the game is playing, only from the settings menu which is only available on game load. I left fullscreen to reply to a message and now I can't enter it again.
EDIT: ok found it! Just push escape and the menu appears. But it was not very obvious since everything else is mouse driven. Nice game nonetheless!
