Honestly, this seems halfway developed and then the dev went "eh, good enough, I can make some money off this'. The concept is great (download torrents with funny names, share them, earn credits and upgrade your PC), and the first few minutes are fun. Then it just becomes tedious. The first prestige mechanic is already annoying because there is literally zero automation; you just play the game again from the beginning, but at least each playthrough unlocks more or less powerful upgrades that actually make it much faster — like you expect from an idle game. After you have done this six times, you unlock the second prestige layer, which just … resets the entire game with a x100 multiplier to the base currency. At this point you are at around e300 of that currency, so that multiplier is completely negligible. You play through the entire game again with literally no change, including six iterations of the first prestige layer. Then you can reset the game another time, with another 100x multiplier on the base currency and no other changes (no automation; you have to buy every single upgrade by hand). You iterate this process until you finally figure out that there IS NO MORE CONTENT. You can keep resetting for a x100 bonus and that is it. No new mechanics, no endgame, not even a "yeah, you've done everything there is now". The randomly generated file names were amusing for a while, but all in all this is not a game on which you should spend money.

I hate upload
I shouldn't be playing this… but here I am. I hope I can stop some day.
ABSOLUTELY. It doesn't take too long to 100%. It was some easy timewalls and it is pretty good for an idle game this niche. Wish this was more popular. 9.5/10
Really good idle game for the price. Progression is tight, steam achievements are simple and doable within ~15 hours, and the mechanics are really good. Suitable for both active and idle play i'd say, up until the very end. Some wording could be better and some mechanics could be better explained (i.e. what "incrimental" upgrades are without having to click a button in the research screen and what "quick research" does). Otherwise very much worth the money and an easy 100% for completionists. 8/10
Nice little incremental game. It could use a bit of a tutorial perhaps but it's easy enough to pick up. One thing I like is that in the options you can turn a bunch of stuff off which is handy when things speed up and get massively hectic! It's got a lovely chill soundtrack, the progression felt really smooth, it was satisfying to play, and pretty easy to get all the achievements. The 56 hours gameplay is probably around a dozen hours of active play and the rest is letting the game idle in the background.
Solid incremental game which offers about 7-8 hours of gameplay (until you've collected all achievements). I actually liked that it could be beaten within a rather short period of time. I wouldn't even call this a classic idle game as you can almost constantly be active in the game and aren't forced to just wait/idle for longer periods of time. Quite the opposite, I found that being offline doesn't really give any useful rewards. 12 hours of offline rewards felt like the same progression as being online for 1 minute. The game is a bit ill-explained and feels overwhelming at first. There is no tutorial, and some features are a bit confusing (e.g. I got confused with the distinction between "reputation" vs. "prestige". And the "Reboot" feature also wasn't very clear at the beginning, it didn't make clear what's all being reset). But then again, it's a clicker game. Just click all buttons you can see and you'll work it out eventually. The last achievement (1b peers) was a bit too grindy, that's the only achievement where I couldn't do more than just let the game run in the background. A tip I discovered: Increase the frame limit to the maximum (was set to 30fps per default for me), as this seems to limit the amount of downloads that can be started per second. Overall I had a great time watching numbers go up. Would recommend.

I enjoyed this game. Picked it up on sale and definitely got my money's worth. Plenty of playtime to 100% it and add another perfect game to the list. Pick it up if you like clicker/idle games, you won't be disappointed.
