The balance of this new version is a big piece of joke. For the record, the final app, Matrix, requires 320GHz/800GB/200PB and only gives 1T money (for the record, getting to even 100GHz/100GB requires at least 1Q); meanwhile the investor bonus is still laughable after the supposedly "buff". Sorry, author, but you really don't understand how to do game balancing. The game becomes impossible to progress very quickly, and it's impossible to reach anything late-game at all. The arbitrariness of mid-game/late-game balance all seems to suggest that you're tweaking them based on whim and guesses, not actual analysis nor playtesting.

Still have 0 investors after playing for about 3 days making over $10 million a second. This does not motivate me to continue playing.

Game to slow, Average at 250-280 mio per sec when apps displayed, switch to settings let jump income to average 380 mio per sec.

The average rate bounces around a lot, for example mine goes down by millions just because I moved the mouse over something. Maybe it would save some cycles to not draw the progress bar once programs start to run idle quickly. Maybe also add some smoothing to the average.

Some feedback: There needs to be a way to see how RAM and CPU affect idle processing. It's silly for RAM and CPU to be sitting at 0% while your programs are cranking away. Upgrading CPU and RAM often increase idle run speeds, but it's hard to tell what the effect is going to be since it's not clear how idle running programs are even using it. Basically we are shooting in the dark trying to figure out what the best program mix is and what to upgrade next, because only the programmer knows how all these things interact.
The only way to know what's optimal is to just uninstall things and reinstall things and then see what happens to your average rate.

Wouldn't upgrading to a new OS free up some space from the previous OS? e.g. If you had one that took up 3 MB and the next one took up 5 MB, wouldn't the increase really be 2 and not 5?
Or is the space needed meant to be the difference between the two? (Wherein the example would really need 8 MB of space.)

I like this game. Im giving it 1/5 because the dev loves to randomly take down from kong/newgrounds his games and then upload them back wiping out all our data...

Needs balancing. Upgrades' prices are getting ridicously high, while offering minimal bonus. Also when do I start getting investors?

How do you earn investors? Played the whole day, still get 0 for a Format. Meaning I haven't even earned 0,1% faster progress for nest run yet. Seems... a bit slow....

Good game but a bit unbalanced when your Stoneage 6.4 GB HDD costs more then your nearly up-to-date 4 core 3.6 GHz CPU.

I'm playing on a 4-5 day old save imported from the Newgrounds version. At this point I can format for a return of 104 investors. 10% improved income seems a meager trade for the time invested. Are there any plans to reexamine the rate at which investors are accrued, the value each investor gives, or perhaps change the rate at which costs scale?
I really enjoy the theme, presentation, and mechanics of this game and I'm looking forward to seeing it refined and expanded upon.

Wish there wasn't just a disk space warning for programs before you buy them; it's easy to miss that you don't have the CPU/RAM capacity for a program before you buy it.

I cant get the game to run. On a fresh game you can't do anything at all until you format, which is not explained in game. even after you format and the basic stats appear on screen, you still cannot do anything. I can choose to upgrade either CPU HD or RAM capacities for $10 each, but that's all i can do. you start with $10 and no matter which i choose to upgrade, there is no income. clicking gives no income no matter where i click. there needs to be instructions or a how to play the game guide, because as it satnds the game does nothing whatsoever.

Obviously some people are playing this game, because it has a good rating. Is nobody going to tell us where to click in order to start?

Too many arseholes downvoting comments. Yeah you might be fine with spending 30 - 40 hours 3x to get back to where you are, but not everyone wants to.

Let's disregard the values presented and the realism within. It's a somewhat new concept for an idle\upgrader. So yeh, just for that, and not going with a clone, you'll get 5 stars. Good job.

Anyone have a full import code for a fast start? I went far before it was taken down from Kongregate, then did the same on Newgrounds, and now it is back here for a third restart

Obviously, there is a place to click to collect money or just to do anything in this game. Is somebody going to tell us where this is, or not? As of right now, I have clicked almost everywhere to no avail.

I had 16MB RAM while running Windows 95 ... I think I didn't need 250MB RAM to run Word.
But then again, that was Word, this is Wurd :D

glitch? upgrading the OS the first time doesn't offer any new apps. does it need to be upgraded twice? it's a long way to get to 11.5k with only the first 2 apps running.

Do you think you could keep a change log so that we know what's new between versions? I was following this game when it was hosted elsewhere and it wasn't always clear.

How do i earn cash? i got the 10 bucks you start with and used them on hard drive, but now i have no idea how to earn more.

i like this game. guess i always loved to upgrade my computer and also i like idle games which run on their own. and now i can play this game on my upgraded computer and upgrade a computer to run a lot of games while i am doing something else. this is true computer evolution ;)
