Under rating threshold (show) How do I increase their rank?

+ - !

(0)

Developer response from CHARLESing

You can increase ranks when your recruit reaches the max level (1000) and you essentially reset the recruit for additional multiplier. But, this means that the recruit's level will go back to level 1!

Under rating threshold (show) How do I submit recruit because the Submit Recruit isn't doing anything?

Developer response from CHARLESing

It should work if you are logged into Kongregate. What browser are you using?

Under rating threshold (show) looks great, sadly the lag in Firefox is too much for me, hopefully it can be resolved

Developer response from CHARLESing

Dang I hoped that this update resolved some of the lag. I'll optimize the code some more. EDIT: Make sure your flash storage is set to 10MB or higher!

Under rating threshold (show) Sorting by Cost should sort maxed recruits by Rank Up cost.

Developer response from CHARLESing

Noted! You can also use filters to show only the maxed recruits!

Under rating threshold (show) When you are on a screen, for example fantasy, it has the sword icons next to the name near the bottom of the screen and you type in fry cook for example, the icons are still there instead of the actual icons. The swords are there instead of the chicken legs. It returns to normal if you click the arrow and back to food, though.

+ - !

Developer response from CHARLESing

Good catch, I'll fix it in the next update!

Under rating threshold (show) I dont get how ranks work, I tried to upgrade some recruit more times (11) but it is still rank 0

+ - !

(0)

Developer response from CHARLESing

Ranks increase when your recruit reach the max level (1000) and you essentially reset the recruit for additional multiplier. So in the beginning of the game, your recruits' ranks will all be zero! So in your case, it should say something like Rank 0, Lvl 11.

WonderLlama

Oct. 04, 2014

Under rating threshold (show) A fun addition could be teams. You select several recruits that fit a theme, and if you guess correctly, their values go up or you get multiplier or something. E.G. Blood Donor and Vampire.

+ - !

(4)

Developer response from CHARLESing

This has a Doodle God-like feel to it! I'll have to think of a good way to implement this, maybe as additional secret achievements, or entirely new thing (maybe with two input fields?).

Under rating threshold (show) the jump in cost to the last 3 recruits is too much, there needs to be something in the middle.

+ - !

(3)

Developer response from CHARLESing

Yeah I'm still balancing the game out a bit. The upcoming recruits will become progressively more expensive, stay tuned!

Wait is it because you were looking at total job output instead of the output/s?

Under rating threshold (show) When you know all the letters in a word but one when there are like 7 of them still covered up and your hints uncover every single one of the ones you know and only afterwards the one you don't know....

Yeah the random number generator is unforgiving :)

Under rating threshold (show) I believe its still broken, the president is on page 73, with a burger flipper just after it, which is producing no where near the same amount of cash per second

Developer response from CHARLESing

Ok I'll look into it some more.

wads

Oct. 04, 2014

Under rating threshold (show) there needs to be a way to buy rank ups quickly, or a way to buy multiple different recruits at the same time. like x1000 on every recruit on the page or something.

+ - !

(155)

Developer response from CHARLESing

I like this idea! I'll try to get it working by tomorrow. EDIT: Now in v 1.0.4.1! Check in the settings!

eggman68

Oct. 04, 2014

Under rating threshold (show) When you added the new recruits, it just added them to the bottom of the list instead of in order of how much they cost/give you

+ - !

(5)

Developer response from CHARLESing

Can you try clicking one of the sorting filters (like the cost one) a couple of times? It should reset the query and organize them in the right order. (Tell me if this works)

CHARLESing

Oct. 04, 2014

Under rating threshold (show) So my first wave of gift bonuses came out during this update (v 1.0.1). People who sent me GOOD suggestions for recruit names were given x0.10 multiplier per suggestion! If I didn't use your suggestion, it was probably because it was too obscure, copyrighted, or there was already something similar to it . If you think I ignored your suggestion, I might have overlooked it on accident, sorry about that (please send it again)! Keep sending in your suggestions, the responses from you guys have been great!

Under rating threshold (show) So I maxed out my best upgrade and then reset it not thinking about it. Now I'm making quite a bit less money and I can't come anywhere close to getting it back to where it was. That's quite the problem.

+ - !

(2)

Developer response from CHARLESing

Yeah... so that's the game mechanic as of now. When you rank up a recruit, it resets the output that you were currently making as if it were back to level 1... I should probably put a message prompt somewhere stating this info, since it kinda gets lost in the tutorial, sorry about that (you are one of the first people to ever play this game, so this feedback is pretty important).

Under rating threshold (show) On the recruits screen, the total rank is displaying wrong for some reason. It says I have 1764 total rank, but on the stats screen I have 12332

Noo... I just uploaded a new version haha :) It seems like a cosmetic issue, so I'll fix it tomorrow :P

Under rating threshold (show) Just noticed a bug after refreshing my game... All of the hats are down to billions and trillions, when before I refreshed they were at like duodecillion and higher.

+ - !

(5)

Developer response from CHARLESing

Oh no... I think there was a minor saving issue where it wasn't recording when you bought the hats. Your money should not however, reflect the losses. I'll put up an update soon, thanks for the bug report!

Under rating threshold (show) I like this game a little too much xD. This game is awesome! Here are a few things that could be better or could be added: 1) Different options of sorting the job names, like rather than the 12 jobs per page, maybe a more compressed but less detailed version that just lets you see a bunch of things. 2) A 'buy all' button, where you buy all the unlocked jobs that you don't own automatically, rather than scrolling through and buying each one. Also, does the 'claim free avatar' button not work, or is there just no avatars?

+ - !

(1)

Developer response from CHARLESing

Thanks :) I'll put the compressing the data and the buy all button on the to-do list! As for the avatar it should work if you're logged into your account. You should get an alert pop-up on the side.

Oct. 04, 2014

Under rating threshold (show) Great game, but I dont understand how the money works. Lets say i have $200, and i have a hiker which gives 1,800 and something, but it takes a while for the bar to fill. When the bar finally restarts, i have... $400............... So: you get your money/second rather than when the bars fill, so then the bars are misleading and useless. =o

+ - !

(16)

Developer response from CHARLESing

Actually that's a bug... Let me look into it. EDIT: Fixed it! Thanks for the bug report :) What was happening was after you had initially purchased a recruit, it wasn't updating the revenue properly. Sorry about that!

Under rating threshold (show) I love this game just because you have to "guess" their names... It's making it original. Also idk why but it's just good. :D
