I can't get achievements. :( I've loaded the game several times after achievements added, and even restarted a new game. I'm not seeing progress on any of them.
For anyone asking, the Genetics tab will re-appear once you hit 100M people. I guess this makes sense since you can't use it until that level anyways. I just hit the 100M mark and the tab showed up.
It would be nice if there was a way to balance items, buy items, etc. I've been playing this game off and on for a few weeks. I've topped out so far at only around 3M people. Every time I hit a wall, food is always the stumbling block. I've got almost 2 billion dollars, but I can't keep my food at a decent rate to continue growing. The problem is it takes too much wood to build enough farms to keep up with growing population demand. I rarely even get to build cars or a decent amount of medicine. 90% of my workers are always stuck in wood or food production. Maybe for several years, they can shift to other areas, but not before long the food runs out. Never ending cycle. Too many bonuses to increase max # of workers....not enough bonuses to increase PRODUCTION BONUS.
How do I get genes? I had been playing for a few days and had a population of maybe 80,000 and I never saw any genes being generated. Can never figure out how to use bonus years either. Needs much better instructions.
This game is still just too unbalanced. In 90% of idle games I play, the longer you play, the easier it becomes to upgrade....in this case, it would be adding Employees. I've been playing this game for 2 weeks, and I am not seeing any doubling of employee purchasing power. Again, everything is held up by lack of Interns. Once I get any section (Cells, Rows, etc) around e13 or e14, it's virtually impossible to purchase e13 or e14 amount of those resources. I've let the game sit for 2 days and still can't do it. Intern gain is simply not increasing enough. The game gets boring for me after I have the ability to buy about 500 employees for each reset. If it takes me 2 days to be able to buy 500 employees, after a reset, it should take a considerably less amount of time to get to 500 employees. My time with this game is about done. :(
Next update will have a significant boost to employees gain so prestige cycles will be shorter or long runs will give you much more employees, it should be out this weekend so I hope you will like it better then!
Needs more influence and intern balance. I'm constantly out of interns, or interns are constantly limiting my ability to upgrade with any impact. Meanwhile, after the first 2-3 influence upgrades per section, influence just sits there building up, waiting to be doubled. There's never enough, and the other there's always too much that's not being used.
Interns and Influence are the limiting factor of your progress and you need to prestige to increase their production so they will always feel like something you have too much or less, I try to balance them every update but it's hard to stike an ideal curve in every possible situation!
For as long as this series has been out, it would be nice if the developers could design the game a bit better to prevent hacking the game and posting all these fake scores. Ruins the gameplay for me. 2/5
