I think I've figured out why this is so hard...the wood collection ratio to the food or wall timer ratios make it exceedingly hard to balance everything. 20 days at the start is great, but it takes me 11 days to build a house and that's with me barely giving my cows rest, and so the longer it goes, the further behind I fall with the wood being unable to keep up with the timer effectively.
The pause button is currently useless unless I need to switch screens. since I can't switch cows around by pause menu, the game is overwhelming once you get too many cows to sustain the removal and change. I get that you wanna make it harder as you progress, -but- currently it feels like unbalanced Dark Souls.
Yeah originally it was possible to move your cows when the game was paused but my friends who tested it said this made the game too easy because it removed any sense of time pressure and real-time management of the cows. You got to 76 days survived though, that's not bad! I'm going to be updating the game and I'll definitely play around with the balancing more - it's a tricky thing, keeping the game challenging, but not impossible and not too easy that it get's boring. Thanks for playing and thanks for sharing your thoughts!
Are you running it in Firefox's latest version? We've reproduced this error in Firefox and it works after you click 'OK', but if that's not doing it for you then we recommend playing the game in Chrome. Thanks for letting us know!! I hope it works for you
the XP system could use some work at level 11 I'm doing like 14ish a click (can't really see) and it's taking forever to get to 12, which is tiring out both my finger and my mouse.
Hi!, thanks for comment!, I'll be looking to reduce the difficulty of the normal mode bosses. remember you can also buy upgrades in store (for in-game money) that help you to defeat them much easier. Best regards!
The game just got worse. Really that Energy bar needs to be removed. The players seem to overwhelmingly want that thing removed. Playing the stocks means nothing if all your time and effort in the STOCK market is WASTED by the tax avalanche while you wait for your energy meter to fill. And now I have some kind of soft reboot REQUIREMENT before I'm ready in the form of my avatar is 80 thus only has 10 energy thus can't do anything anymore really? This game would be so much fun without all these little unnecessary mechanics.
At least remove the energy consumption for Learning and such. What good is making money in the stock market when taxes come along and stomp you while you wait to be able to use the money you just collected? Every time it happens I literally lose a little more desire to play because I feel my time has just been wasted.
Not a big fan of the buy more energy for money section. It's a great game, but that's a real turn off as a gamer. Especially when the price is 20 creds. That's like 2 bucks for a little extra play time.
Level limits on each piece of armor and weapon would encourage moving up to the next level. I liked that the wood sword stopped at 50, it encouraged me to move up to copper, the problem is I had to force myself to switch from leather to Copper, and it took to about 175 to catch up to my 350 leather armor before I could switch over.
