I like the fact that the plants and spice reset. It acts as a sink for all the gold that accumulates. I also like the way mainframe keeps the game the way he likes it in this regard, despite the ratings difference since it is the most common criticism.
@stubbsy the plants disappear intentionally as a money sink. The name stays with the file until you delete your cookies, but you can change your name at any point in the game.
I don't think so. I've never seen my health get that low and the only thing I've heard from a person who has claimed that their health got below zero was that hits started to damage xp instead.
This game exists to run in the background while you chat. That is the point of an idle game. You can buy weapons, haircuts, plants, and hotsauce, but for the most part this game plays itself. That is the point of it.
Happens to me every now and again when I run it for days on end in Firefox. Probably not browser specific. Although, with everything other than Opera I do eventually get some ram leaks and noticeable slowness after about a week. You could load the highscores in a new tab, it usually works and won't ruin your game running.
