@JoyReactorMan: yes, language has to be reformed.
I doubt russian "yo" ("ё") will be obsolete: unlike hard sign at the end of a word, it is functional: pronounced differently from similar "ye" ("е"), and present in some very common words (e.g. "все - всё" --- "everyone - everything"); some are confused by those who do not use "yo", so current official position is that using it is obligatory in texts for children and foreigners. And public opinion did not change much in last 30 years.
IMO allowing "ye" instead of "yo" was mostly typewriters optimization accident (in early XX).
Fun thing: words pronounced with "yo" instead of "ye" appeared because of confusion.
My point: for english to use special letters for "sh", "th" instead of adapting latin with "Q","C"and"K" seems logical. Probably latin had good PR.
Btw, cyrillic for "sh" is "ш", "th" sound is not present in russian (it was used before, greek "θ", but they got rid of it altogether with hard sign at the end of words).
@BlackOpsDudeII: 262 scribes (well, that was mostly right mouse button test), 212 writers, 200 authors; others --- 140-110-100-100.
Ran game in the office being afk (over night and over weekend). Sold combinations ("Convert") up to couple of trillions to buy that; reset "Convert" (one-time thing). Calculated what's more efficient to buy, but very roughly.
Current lps of one helper (scribe etc.; no longer increases after 200), at max: 3814; 38142; 152568; not max: 7628; 4577; 11595; 30513. Price: 7.42B; 10.31B; 148.12B; 5.97B; 3.37B; 9.34B; 78.45B.
So, you at least can estimate what is better to buy. Price progression is different for different helpers, but exponential in every case. Knowing upgrades and achievements in advance (like +10% or +50%) would have been useful, sorry for not keeping notes.
At first I rated it 4/5 despite Magician's Pouch not being free: I bought it, ok, it's one time purchase, it does make game much easier and I do not like to replay fields. But selling shadow cores crosses the line for me: this is a free games site after all, and they make me want to buy cores or grind for them, after I already paid to not replay fields often.Also, getting orange fragments from F1 on Haunting is ridiculous: another invitation to grindfest (as you do not spend cores to do it, and fragments' quality is higher than on X4 on looming without traits). Bad emotions instead of story ending fun (I am at said X4 now).
@mattman2005, @JoyreactorMan: english language is hardly one thousand years old and it does not have its own alphabet, it took latin alphabet "as is". They used cool letters like þ, ð, ƿ, ȝ, æ and œ before "Modern English" (about year 1500) though. Anyway, "or", "sh", "ch" are no more ok than "q" in my opinion: when you use supposedly cool (latin) alphabet instead of using letters crafted for your language, you get what you get. For a different example: when cyrillic alphabet was created, they did not just take greek alphabet without substantial changes, they reworked it (late 9th century), and it still required some changes, including adding a new letter in late 18th century. It would be fun if new, special, alphabet for those speaking english natively were created: what would foreigners do?
No longer fun at "akldwu-sn-", last word --- "airlifting", last quote --- some crap from some american; 45.38M lps; 95/133 quotes, 40584/51361 words, 175/216 upgrades, 101/120 achievements. Combinations: 10.87T current, 17.13T total.
Greater helpers (writers and others) do not scale well: looks disappointing when you, say, get 200 author.
Also, updating the game some time ago would have been fruitful: now (for a week or so) it's no longer in "hot new games"...
As was already noticed: quotes appear not when they should; also there is a glitch with favorites: "black screen" (need to reload) when browsing favorited quotes when none was favorited, and currently I have no favorites, but statistics show "Favorites: 2" (counter increases if I actually mark favorites).
While I believe I understand selling combinations now, some better help seems to be necessary. And why not make "reset sponsorship" upgrade appear after the word "money" or something? (6-letter words may be somewhat late to introduce the feature, 4-letter words --- too early)
I did not like the games before, but in the despair of idle-games attack, meat times have come.
I'll even buy Super Meat Boy after completing this level pack, I don't know in which year though.
Unlike normal Meat boy, this one easily hangs Flash when left alone for some time.
I'll finish it if it gets badges; for now I may introduce it to kids when they finish their chores. Seems to be easy enough to be quite good for small children.
There is no excuse for the lags in this game. And "use chrome" bit is lame too. If you can't process clicks fast enough, something is not right in your game, especially for a game this simple, even if you are so cool that you call a click "tap". Graphics are somewhat nice though, and at least they scale.
tom1994: look at attributes, they may be diminished by malnutrition. In that case set food/water to over 100% for some time and wonder around a town, they'll regain their optimal weight quite soon. Optimal weight is at the end of the list of skills.
