Somehow managed to get myself in a situation where I had 0 skill points and was unable to level due to not having any speed or crit chance. Chi blast has since saved my life. Thank you skill that no one thought would amount to anything.
I'm glad you appreciated the skill that everyone thinks is under powered. I especially brought that skill up coz I tested the game and there will come a time that it's almost impossible to rebirth and just needs a few extra levels.
The issue is the game very quickly gets to a point where damage is no longer useful and crit damage is even less useful due to the fact you can never get pierce up nearly high enough. Sure if you go for really long runs to hit 10's of thousands of levels you will need them but until very high ascensions you won't hit that point. And by that point your rebirth dmg boost multiplier should be helping mitigate that.
you do keep your ascension upgrades after ascension... there is probably something wrong with your current game can you check the console if there's any error messages and print screen it and message it to me? probably something with the engineering notation being bugged :/
Lovely... refresh when at champion rank after 1st ascension just to make sure there isn't an update to fix only getting 2 points from ascending and boom save file is corrupted x.x
Spending ascension points on anything except pierce is pointless unless speed and crit allow you to go over the natural cap. And the damage bonus from ascension itself (not even the point thing) is pointless as after around the first rank up damage is not the issue but rather your pierce. After your first ascension the game also stops being an idle game unless you set up an auto clicker on your rebirth button. Maybe ascension could instead allow you to get a rebirth pierce or maybe make that a multiple point cost ascension skill. I get that it is supposed to be a challenge to keep getting ascensions but I don't think making it an active process isn't the way to go about it. Either way, I love the game and you have done a great job. Look forward to further updates.
Okay, so my last comment was based on my knowledge from before this update which added an ascension shop. Apologies for not checking for a new patch before posting.
it does get a little harder as you ascend more I was thinking that was the challenge there... I do feel the need of being rewarded as you ascend someone have suggested those things to me and I have made a little something to boost the gameplay... If you guys have any suggestions to improve the game I would be very much happy. Honestly I'm almost dried up being coding like crazy since I released the game due to the bugs and some improvements. I will probably take the weekend to rest though I will still read messages, comments and suggestions from everyone. I hope you guys enjoyed my game :)
Word of warning for ascensions, after you ascend the first time you have to get an extra 5 rebirths per rank increase which makes ascension a net loss currently.
Would be great to have a tutorial added when you get your first spare blueprint to explain the merging system so that chat is constantly being asked that every time the game gets a new player.
I had 0 problem with the instagram until he removed the bonus essentially saying "screw you" to all those who did support him. And for what? To get rid of criticism? All it has done is get more people angry.
Just an fyi to those of you who don't know how games work, you don't highlight bugs in comments because people will abuse them. Didn't know this was hard to understand.
To the genius thinking research reset would reset the cost but allow you to unlock the same number of nodes: get off the Internet if you can't understand how respecs in games work.
Puplecorn, I think that the dev is trying to balance mid/late game by nerfing things hardcore instead of changing the curve of costs and benefits. I def agree that a 100x nerf to pres modifier makes things way too hard especially for early game.
So I broke the currency cap yet again. Something needs to be done about this. The rocks system caps at 1550 rocks, but you can only gain 1 rock/second even if you have cps that would grant you more.
Disclaimers about save data won't mean that people won't get annoyed by it. Don't get me wrong, I'm not mad to the point of quitting, but some people would be.
