The shiny is a bit expensive, but imagine if it was cheaper people could just buy a bunch of it and upgrade the crap out of everything instantly. Compared to people who don't have extra cash to spend it would make the game completely unfair.
Jonathan is the guy that keeps banning him for making fake games (like this) and posting them. Besides that, this game is just amazing, it brings trolling to a whole new level. (P.S. you're a douche paper cup and I kind of like the music).
That's because you ARE a genius :)
