the prisoner's dilemma is a cool thing to base a game around, unfortunately there really isn't a good way to really get it going in the current build, it's too easy to do some quick math and make sure that you both win. Maybe add some more risk/reward elements to the game
Alright, final update on the glitch I've been commenting about: Refreshing the page gets rid of it for a while. Maybe it has something to do with memory allocation? (just spit balling an idea)
Edit to my previous comment: the glitch isn't that the wave *stops* but rather that it finishes instantly and only seems like it is stopping.
Hope this helps in diagnosing the problem!
The glitch in where the whole brain stops pulsing does seem to be connected to the pulse speed upgrade. Considering how powerful this upgrade is, it would be very nice if a fix could be found soon
