Sadly the skill tree seems to be a bit busted atm. The "Investment" and "Passing it Forward" skills seem to not actually work, as I start a new infinity with no skill points. The offline progress also sometimes doesn't bank properly and the music resets to full volume every launch, but either way this is pretty fun!

They do work, they’re probably just auto assigning into other skills you chose last run as that’s a feature of the skill tree

Thanks for the info about the music

I see, although it makes me wonder how on earth you're supposed to fill out the tree, as those two skills reset on infinity as well, despite normally being unrefundable!

Either way, that was my bad!

I’m working on a way to get more skill points :)

Ohh, is the Infinity shop also WIP?
Fair enough, for some reason I thought this was feature complete at this point, my bad!

Either way, thanks for being responsive ^v^

it mostly is I’m just making small changes every few weeks to make it better haha

This game is weirdly very pleasing. No ads, no over-the-top art or flashy stuff just text and some icons. It is also the best idle game I've played in a looong while. Love how offline time is saved up and you pick when to use it.

Glad you like it!

Unable to spend infinity points. I've reality broke twice, and it doesn't unlock. Although when I do reality break, it says something about you have broken reality an insane amount of times, but as a negative integer.

Exact same problem, I have reality breaked at least 10 times, but seemingly no progression.

Same issue here.

Same here, I get a huge negative number for how many times I have broken infinity, and end up right back at the start with no progression unlocked :/

Edit: Hard resetting the savefile fixed it, wish I had figured that one out before playing for 12 hrs.

Will there be a mac build for this game? It looks interesting but sadly I am mac locked.

It's on the Mac store! Same link as iOS

would you mind adding some hotkeys to the game? for example using space to tinker in your garage, or use 1-9 to jump among tabs, or press shift/ctrl/etc to buy things in 10x, 100x... and make (cloud) save faster.

I’ll look into it next version

Please include a toggle for the "ScreenSaver" it is more annoying than useful for some users. Also a more reliable auto-perk queue, the order the perks are auto-bought tends to skip 2/3 point perks.

Other than those two points, I am loving the newer version keep up the good work!

yeah I can probably do that next version :) thanks for playing!

is it possible to enlarge all the text? its really hard to read

Can you provide an Android APK directly to itch that doesn’t require Google Play Services? I specifically use itch.io to avoid that.

Ask me again after the 18th of March, when the new update releases and I will make a build for you.

Ping, lmk if that works

I think you should really advertise your game because I only found it since I have very specific requirements for my games and I was digging deep into the App Store looking for the perfect game that suits me the most. I love your game and I have been playing since before the revamp of the app but it’s only not popular because it’s not advertised enough. If it was it would be one of the best incrementals.

I appreciate the feedback!

(+1)

Let me know if that works

PLS MAKE İT FOR STEAM

The version number should appear in the Settings window. I was unsure whether the Linux app had updated the program, so I reinstalled to be certain.

the version number is in patch notes in the wiki tab

I noticed that I have to restart the game many times to make it work on Linux. Is the game attempting to connect to a remote server, or am I encountering a bug?

oh the loading going forever, I thought I pushed the update that removed that. I’ll get on that as soon as I get up. There will be an update sometime today. 

I installed it from Google Play yesterday and loading was stuck on the first time. Restarting worked.

Ok I just uploaded the new builds, sorry about that, hope it works for you now :)

I see the linux/mac version is on 13 and the windows version is 16. Are the two versions in feature parity or is there difference?

They're the same :)

plamets are now building themselves? game broke rip

they do that when you get the scientific planets skill

The first time I opened the game from a fresh install I got the message that I played 14 days and 7 seconds ago. That's a weird bug.

Welcome to Sydney time haha but thanks

Galaxy view is sideways after being brought back in, and for some reason the view buttons work but the slider doesn't.

How do i open the galaxy view

if you are on the latest version the buttons in the wiki but you can’t rotate it

new update wiped my save......

(-1)

didn’t wipe your save I changed the name of the project by accident on version 9 and fixed it pretty quickly after that. Please make sure you have the latest version so it uses the correct save file 

(1 edit)

it wiped my save again.......

make sure you’re on the latest version should fix itself

How do you prestige? I'm sitting at 112% and see the red alert message but no way  to actually prestige. 

you may be on an older version, if you download the new one your save will be fine and you will be able to prestige :)

Is there a way to view the dyson swarm on windows?

(-1)

only by downloading an older version, I removed it due to majority of players not using it 

boooo

it’s back in the latest version
