I put 250hours into this game during playtest phase and informed the developer on multiple occasions that the balancing was all wrong and needed some work (i got banned from his discord for this) although he did say that everything would be good on release. and as a way of a thankyou for playtesting the game i had to buy it when it released :( Since release i have put another 300 hours into the game for it to be no better. very disappointing for an idle game, i have played free idle games that are much better
Boring trash game with toxic developer. This dude ban anyone who send him info about bugs on discord etc. No bug fixed in last 3 months. Game is dead. By the way what you see in first 10 seconds of the game is the full content. Game created mostly by AI in one day. Do not waste your time on this abandomed gamelike garbage.
Not a good game. It's not bad exactly, just very boring, slow, with very poor ability to give the dopamine, which an idler should be doing. Too much is hidden, repetitious without feeling rewarding, and there's very little synergy with upgrades, just increasing multipliers for 1 planet at a time or a small upgrade for all at once. Not long into it you start finding 1 planet reigns supreme and the rest are either completely useless or only contribute single digit percentages to income. It's new though, hopefully the dev expands the game fun-factor as time goes on.
Very simple and basic idler. Like super simple. Ascention tree is boring and short and basically can be completed by less than 10 hours(i guess it could be done faster if you ascend often). Game lacks any depth or even basic strategies. Visually it's quite simple too, but wouldn't consider it a negative. I can't recommend it to any incremental games playerbase, but I guess it could be someones first game in a genre, but even in that case I would prefer Cookie Clicker over this game as a first game in genre for newcomers in which you'll have much more engaging for both active and passive playstyles. So generally, I would recommend to skip this game and check other games in a genre for anyone who wants to scratch their incremental itch and if you a new player - check out a Coockie Clicker(you can play web version for free btw). For now, it's very barebones(if I can even say so) game which needs much-much more content.
There's about 2 hrs worth of content. At 1.5 hrs it slows to a crawl. This is about when you have 7 out of 10 achievements. In order to get all to get the asteroid achievement I'd have to stare at the screen for 50 hrs. ! asteroid per hour. Providing I don't miss any or I'm not away or glazing over. Also the asteroid are broken, often time you get the sound effects or one but it never shows up on the screen. There are 6 planets, eventually the last one (yellow) was the only one making a difference per second. The research tree is very tiny. My last upgrade was going to take 24+ hrs. But at least there are no micro transactions and I enjoyed it for 1.5 hours. Another game that I'll never get 100% achievement due to sheer boredom. Also I've found out that you can't get ascension points offline. therefore the game demands you time. To me it's not worth it nor an I interested in letting it run over night because there's still the asteroids (1 per hour) to deal with.
The developer basically created a few attractive screen shots to sell the game. There isn't much there in the way of features, or fun for that matter. The so-called Ascension tree or whatever has like 10 things on it. This game has absolutely nothing going for it. But at least it's not Banana?
Very good idle game! I like the graphics, the style, the progress and I absolutely would recommend it if you like this type of games. The start might seem a bit slow, but if you play with the boosters you can quickly automate the first planet, and then the game becomes quite rewarding. Also the dev is very active on discord and he plans to implement more features for the game in the future!
Riveting Gameplay! I must say, the game is simply stunning and beautiful! The circular colourful planets, the identical colourful aliens, the intense colourful progress bars! The beginning of the game has me on the edge of my cheap office chair! Very edged! Wait until you upgrade your Automation to max level! THAT PROGRESS BAR! I will not spoil you with such excitement! My friends are especially quite bemused when I had shown them the incredible journey I have attained! I have purchased this game at -15% discount. But fear not! I would happily pay full price for this unbelievable experience!
Upgrades are boring, just multipliers to a planet. After each ascension you will get instantly all the "automation" upgrades, which makes that part of the game pointless. Even on your first run the "automation" upgrades seem pointless, you only wait the first and second planet to finish production and after that the "waiting time" doesn't matter because you just build the automation to receive currency instantly. I have not gotten all the ascension upgrades, but they seem boring too, just multipliers to stuff. No "build making", since there is no upgrades that would support certain build for a planet. It's always tough to not recommend such cheap game, but if you are idle game fan, you probably won't like this one.
Ridiculous! Get to 50K points clicking once per second just for the first upgrade. That's almost 8 hours of clicking once per second!
