(heres how you could have added pet to balanced regradless of stage player is: resource gained to be regardless of pet amount nor type of pet, with amount needed to be obtained about halfway of event) instead you went with current event way of "f-you new players you aren't wanted here"
Like I wrote in the other comment, it was not that hard to get the pumpkin for players who played actively for most of the event, even if they were newer. Other than that, there are players who play this game for years already and they had it much harder to start out than new players now. New players now can progress much faster and get more stuff than older players when they started out. I don't think it is good to just throw owerpowered stuff to new players without any effort to get it when older players had to do much more for that. This would be really unfair to older players. Everything in this game is reachable even for new players and they can get it faster than older ones needed to get it. But it is still a long running game, where you need months or longer to get everything.
Would say that pumpkin pets price is way too steep ... only got 5 pets so far so its imposisble pet to obtain ... seems that pet was only geared for long time active players/ cash players... :(
Hm if you just started playing the game, then it is probably too late for you to get it now. It is more for people who play actively and play at least twice a day within the 2 weeks. People who had at least 3 pets at the beginning of the event could have gotten it with actively playing. And you can get your first 3 pets within a week or two of starting the game... But if you can't get it, fear not, it only means you will need longer until you have it. It won't disappear.
(how it should be nicer is: select value buttoon, now it hires/fires/buys with this value, and if click customize you can change value of said selected button
somehow I wish I could custom all buy buttons instead of one, not much use for "1" or "10" or "25" once you reach point where moving 1k,10k,and 100k is normal
so sitll saying but game needs cancel for challenge if taken by accident one you didnt mean to ...funny few extra days idle mode as I started 2nd row 1 instead of first row 2nd I thought was selected but wasnt and couldnt find any way to cancel it
cheese, tue ...these greed runners know only one vote ...and thats vote done with wallet ...they never listen to players before its too late ...and once its too late it stays too late
looking shop only items ... I would say this game is on side of pay to win ...selling item that can become top tier gear on cash only lies on very definitions of pay to win
One thing I can say to dev: by bringing more mental image "suited guy on his knees hands holding cup and askin ppl to goive money" is good deterrent to give any money
