Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 0.43/day in the week to Sep 3 → 1.14/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,402 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Great game - fun to click/idle - could see some improvements in rate of repeat for mouse clickers later in the game - and some kind of stats/info panel showing global earnings and maybe a clear idea of what resources modify each other in terms of collection rate, drones seem to run out later in game but after detonating a few times i ended up i think with a bug where each time i could re-convert my special drones back and i ended up with 200 constantly refilling all the time - then i hit a bug probably with compounding interest where my ore quantity from spyce trades overflowed and i had a huge number - allowing me to buy effectively unlimited satellites to recycle and ore upgrades to use- and even with all that, the rate of earning the final resource for prestige is enormously slow after the first few - but repeated detonations allow you to kinda do it quick - however once all unlocked there isnt much more to do - feels like its too hard to earn prestige until later and once you have it - the game is over. Maybe more balance and more prestige options and game expansions will help - all that said I still think it was great fun!
Прикольний тайм-кіллер. Можна клацати на фоні. Красива піксельна графіка, наукова фантастика.

Вперше відкрив для себе схожий жарн гри. Медитативно, не на в'язливо. Цікаві технології розвитку цивілізації. Візуал достатньо приємний, як на піксельну графіку. Гра сама по собі досить коротка, і дещо затягнута на фінальному етапі, але чудово працює у згорнотуму вікні)
Hey I genuinely don't understand why this has mixed reviews, this is a great game. I enjoyed it thoroughly. I can kinda understand the criticism that prestiging feels too slow, and I think that is because you don't get enough prestige points relative to the powerups you want to purchase; so maybe the game would benefit from like maybe you get two passive effect purchases for every prestige point instead of one? I had less than half of the passives unlocked when I beat the game. All the same, though, still very fun and I enjoyed all of the conceptual sci-fi. I do for sure recommend it, and lament the mixed review score.

Estéticamente medio bonito de lejos, de cerca se ven fallos en el pixel art y el los diseños. Igualmente el arte es el menor se sus problemas, las mejoras de prestigio no se sienten valgan para algo y si no comprar las mejoras de los planetas como el juego pretende te quedas atascado, como incremental es de los peores que he jugado en bastante tiempo. En general se siente como un early access, le falta mucho para que sea simplemente decente.
Bem bacana pra passar um tempo.
un bel passatempo. un po' lento nella progressione ma comunque godibile.
Me encanta cuando los juegos me hacen olvidar las ganas de orinar.
jogo mt divertido mas aquela ultima conquista que pe meio chata de fazer
