What do medals do, except for ascension currency to buy trophies? What would you suggest would be a good amount for the first ascension?

This is a great game that raises some fascinating philosophical questions like "Is this technically a puppy mill or a paper mill?" and "Can I also pee on my homework to pass classes?"

"Your art teacher would be so happy to see this drawing I made!" But you're in trigonometry! Trigonometry is a math class, not an art class!

How do I turn off the cutsie pop-up messages from the dogs? They are distracting and add nothing of value to the game.
You can't turn it off atm. If you click on the X on the upper right corner of the popup, it delays the next popup. I'll add a setting to turn it off on the next update.

I love this game so much! Sure, it starts out ruff, but eventually your dogs do your homework so well they leave the teachers barking mad! Sorry about the puns, I'm being serious, I really enjoy this game.

Nice to have an idle game come out where the save works right off the bat instead of several updates in :) Also the loots being carried over from grad class to grad class is nice :) Very good start overall, though I am left wondering what the monsters are doing (aside from giving a coin bonus based on earnings/min). Do they eat a portion of the A's/sec?

Trying to Scroll through Several of the list is nearly impossible due to non-exclusive focus on game frame for scroll wheel, and lack of scroll bars in many of the game tabs.

I'm sure you get asked this a lot, but why are the dogs helping with my homework? Shouldn't they be eating it? It's dogs VS homework.

I keep getting an error while the game is downloading data and the error message reads as follows:
"SyntaxError: missing } after function body"
Can anyone help?
Are you using Firefox by chance? I've had another player with a similar issue that I can't reproduce on my test machine. If you have Chrome, can you try if that works for you?

I’d definitely like to see a faster way to get the treats. I have touch screen so I used that, but for some areas, I didn’t see a scroll bar. At this time, privacy, tech support, and credits didn’t work for me. The more games button would be nice to pop-up in a new window rather than the one we’re playing on. I hope you can find a way to display the loot collection in the future. The monsters left on screen when you go to the class area disappear when you go back to the clicking screen (not sure if that’s supposed to happen).
Hope this helps you raise the game to an even higher level :)

I like this game a great deal and want to see it last as long as possible. Here are a few things I think you could fix.
Too many clicks for the classes, it should be one or two clicks so it’s not tedious for the players. Basically, I’m talking about the confirm and warning of the success/start class button. Another thing that bothered me was the zooming button. Every time I came back from the class area, I have to resize again. It would be nice to remember the last setting.

Zoom level really should be saved between swapping scenes. Also class screen swapping lag get annoying fast. Id recommend doing an optimization sweep next update or in the next few.

4th attempt ... the gme loads, but on clicking the "like on faccebook" button, I get a black screen followed by a fatal error ...
now attempting the 5th try, and on the verge of a rage/quit ...
Terribly sorry about the crash. I think it might be a browser incompatibility issue. The only suggestion I could give is to try updating your browser to the latest version.

3rd time lucky? ... nope, didn't even get past the "connecting to server" stage this time ...

Two more things (for the dev). It seems that when you go to the classes and come back all the flying monsters are gone (not necessarily a problem but that's the way it is right now). Also it'd be nice to have a total of the bonuses that the loot, perks, etc...give us.
Yeah I added a total stats page in the to-do list for the next update. The homework bats disappearing is somewhat of a technical limitation (it becomes a problem remembering each room state because you can move to different rooms later in the game).
That is a very good idea... Dang I am very much regretting now not doing a Beta prototype before I released the game here in Kong. These feedback really helps!

There's a sort of bug. Immediately after liking on facebook and getting the 20 treats for free, the game started lagging like crazy, as in 4-5 frames/second. There was no build up to it, it went from perfectly smooth to unplayable lag and it was clearly because of the facebook liking thing. Refreshed the page and everything is fine now, so not a game breaker. Besides that the game is a lot of fun for now, haven't played enough to give more feedback but wanted to report the bug.
Thanks bitornade! Yeah there was also another comment earlier where some of the other website links don't open to a new tab properly, so I might need to overhaul in-game links in general. Thanks for the bug report tho!

when it says grab your books and pensils that dog reminds me of the malfunction dog from youtube, coincidence or are you a fun of the video?
She was supposed to have dark psychic powers, but I'm bad at drawing and I couldn't draw her demon familiar, so she just ended up being Goth. Happy you liked her tho!

I do have a couple of things to say, though;
Connecting to the server, loading the game, and running the game puts pressure on my computer. I'd like an ability to compress textures, upgrade your server wifi speed (or whatever) disable animations, reduce textures among other things that will help performance.
True. I'm looking into shrinking the memory footprint. It's nice that I'm actually able to get feedback from players now so I'm not just shooting in the dark anymore.

It's still working. Just that weird thingy on the top right is stuck. Refreshing the game fixes that. I guess it's some sort of "closing the lesson-window gone wrong". It could be some result of switching ingame windows and very fast un-focusing the game. So the game "stops" and maybe hiccups with the some animation. Oh and one annoying thing: The game does not save the sound/music settings.
Yeah, Unity WebGL is fairly new, so it's a bit unreliable atm, but kinda didn't have much of a choice since Chrome/Firefox is showing less and less support for Flash. The WebPlayer was better but Unity scrapped that feature. I'm just glad I haven't heard any out of memory errors yet. I'll work on the SFX/BGM setting next.

Found another thingy http://i.imgur.com/FJfNsYh.png I have no idea how/when that happened. I guess it was after sending dogs to school.
Oh wow, I can't believe I missed that one out! Yeah I'll fix that asap. EDIT: Should be fixed now, might need some time for your browser cache to clear to get the fix.

Clicking on "more games" does open up in the frame instead of a new tab. Also a small not what medals do would be nice, except for the fact you can exchange them for stuffs.
It's Puppy Power. Once you get Science Puppy, you unlock Classrooms. Your Puppy Power acts like Attack power, and needs to be higher than the enemy's Homework Power to have a better chance at success.
Yeah, sorry about that! I wanted to update the original version sooner, but I had to learn Unity WebGL from scratch 'cuz Flash was being obsoleted. Thanks for waiting!
