I've just now maxed everything in this game, which took me a bit over a month longer than to finish it. Especially reaching level 80 for the Maximizer factory upgrade was brutal. The last upgrade took 108.69 Qi (yes, Qi, not Qa) PP, which doesn't seem to be very balanced to the other stuff. On the other hand, almost no one is so nuts to go for a 100% run, so I guess it's fine... All in all I've liked the game.
@Balbanes: Yes, it looks like this is written in HTML5. One of the reasons flash was phased out is because HTML5 has native browser support in a lot of browsers, since it's monstly JavaScript based; hence it doesn't need flash and is considered one of the futures for web games.
@Grantlysme, you can press "R" to reset a level (as long as it isn't finished/failed) or press "Q" to quit and return to the level select... You can find these informations in the instructions on the right side (sadly not ingame).

You'll get an Award for finishing the last level in under 1 minute. Brock1563 commented at the 1. of August 2012 on how to do this.
I've figured out a way which requires about 30% less steps and is therefore easier to do within the time limit.
It's highly possible that someone already found that (or an even more efficient way) before me. However, I haven't found any documentation about it.
Legend: ^ = UP, v = DOWN, ( = LEFT, ) = RIGHT. Solution:
)^(v)^v^v(v(v(
)^)^v(v(v^v^)(v()^)^)^)^
(v^)^)(v(v^v^)()^v()
More addition: After glitching past floor 80 and winging out, I can now enter the cave at floor 90. Beside question mark monsters (all stats 0, but one has a fancy flash attack) and cool gear (like a "Haste Ring", which says it reduces the delay between attacks by 33% but doesn't work), I've also found 2 more journal entries after "YEAR 24, DAY 1" which explain why there was no fight against a demon at the end: "YEAR 24, DAY 22: 998. I may go insane", "YEAR 24. DAY 25: 999 today. I ONLY NEED ONE MORE. There seems to be only one fool still exploring this place. I think a... personal visit may be order."; after that, any new page is empty... As for getting there without cheating or a savegame; I'm not sure how it glitched, but I think it's running low on memory and being close to floor 80. If you're "lucky" you will skip floors and get there. Or you'll end up with a black screen and "falling" endlessly (my deepest floor is 18977... yeah, it happens a lot to me) until you reload the game.
Addition to my "Deep down" adventure: Floor 520 loads fine, but going deeper just freezes the game at a blackscreen. Oh well. I'll keep a backup save of the talking sorcerer to remind me of this funny adventure...
I've somehow glitched past floor 80 (long after finishing the game, for some reason I just keep replaying...) and was placed on floor 103.
Monsters are just question marks and don't yield gold or experience, but I've found some interesting equiptment and crafting ingredients. Since floor 105 the game just jumps between shop floors with random people instead of a shopkeeper.
At floor 460 I've met the sorcerer, he just says "You're not supposed to be able to talk to me! Something glitched! :(".
That's some great game design here (although it crashed earlier after talking to an other inexistent Person...)!
I think I can still use the Wings, but do I want to? Hm... Nope. Let's see what else I will meet on my path down into what seems to be oblivion :-) ...
Uhm... I just started a game on Floor 0 and somehow fell down to the floor 863... of a maximum of 80 possible...
I guess that's what happen when you step into the elevator without checking if it is there...
