Also, offline progression is broken while exploring. I think there's some bad logic when enemies are involved, I have 6 hours of battery off-line time available, but no real progress either in exploring or mining, at the point of the 5th exploration area. 6th area has even more enemies to take down, which I was successful at, but apparently it only calculated that bit after logging back into the game, and did not do any progress scanning or anything. 6 offline hours down the drain.

Rsutton: The explorers get pretty expensive compared to miners and builders. If you haven't moved from letters (M, B, T, Q) for the amount of minerals you have on hand, you don't have enough. You need 5e18 minerals per explorer bot. And if you accidentally queue one up, and then cancel it, you don't get the minerals back, so beware.

This feels less like a complete game, and more like the framework for one, but with a lot of expected features (smooth progression curve, max out buttons, new areas/options alerts) still waiting to be implemented. Add to that the insane premium currency prices and it just adds up to an unpolished game.

@CooperAchaea Games that aren't finished and games that have been abandoned and no longer work should also be taken down if we go by that logic. I'm ired of looking at games I would like to play, but say they don't work because of Unity no longer existing

Up to you. For me I won't be paying for either one, but I'm going to get the resources that are collected twice a day to upgrade the cube.It might take me longer to get there, but I'm not fussed about it.

There is a bug in the explorers. I cant build them after a reset. They show up in the menu and i can cue them but the cue stops on them and the cube goes mining. Also to get the gun to defend yourself you have to be level 50. a lot of slogging to get there for ....???

Played a few hours, this game is really unpolished and lacking QoL features. Amount the dev(s) want you to spend is absolutely insane. Games like this should be removed from Kongregate.

Gunner production by the cube seems to be bugged. Unlike other robots, the queued gunners are not produced offline and they are removed from the queue when reloading.

- auto expedition option
- Buy All button
- Option to reset talent points
- serious balancing

@ Geno_Now The hangers increase the maximum limit of each of the little bots you can produce, miners, builders, explorers, and so on.

Played it yesterday, all day, came back today, and there was no game saved. Can't really play if there is a risk of losing my save file randomly.

my biggest issue after playing it for several weeks is that as you progress, the game doesn't get more complex, just more repetative. There's barely new features as you grind your way up, just longer waiting times.

Oh wow I didn't notice you would need 5e18 just to get one of the explorer bots. Now I know why my cube isn't building them.

I'm unable to build the explorer bots after the first one. It seems you fixed part of the earlier problem I mentioned before, however it still seems that bug hasn't been completely fixed. I'll come back when that gets fixed.

@richard233, I don't have an exact answer for damage, but you don't have to complete expeditions in one go. You can wear down the enemy HP with multiple attempts. Sending explorers as cannon fodder can help to sponge damage away from your cube, for faster results. It's really the best use of them, since there's a very small window where it's worth it to send them by themselves, and their speed bonus is nullified if the cube is sent and doesn't have speed equal to them.

Okay so after about 2 weeks on Territory 5 I've got upgrade for damage (about 1e25 cost). A bit long to beat this point but I did it :)

@ Sir Poopington, do you have enough metal to make them? They require 5e18 metal each, and if you don't have enough metal, you can't build them until you do.

when there are two groups of bots in one exploration level - this goes for your side (green) or enemies (red) - it seems clear the game first chooses which group to apply damage to, then applies damage. this means the smaller group (in terms of total HP) will, in expectation, always be destroyed first. this is problematic in more than one way - for example, when only my Cube has a weapon but i have lots of explorer robots, i can't really use them as a shield because the Cube will be destroyed much sooner than the explorer bots because the Cube has lower *total* HP.

Fast upgrader seems to speed up the press and hold for buying upgrades - pity they have not that of applying that to assigning workers...

So, apparently if you are not "watching" while the robot is building your explorer, it stops building it and does not restart and you lose the resources you spent.

Since one of the updates, exploring seems to be buggy while offline. If I start exploring, save the game and log out theres either the case that exploring is reset as if I did not start it at all, or it is still running in the scanning mode even after several hours when movement would have only taken 10 min

For some reason I'm unable to take the daily rewards anymore. It says I have daily rewards to get and yet when I click on them I'm not able to get them.

I like this game, but it has serious balance issues. Won't get into the problems that have already been stated, but here's a big one: Upgrades being tied to cube/building levels make the game stall at higher levels. I'm currently sitting at level 85 cube, and haven't had a miner efficiency or energy upgrade in about 12 hours. The one miner upgrade I do have available is completely out of reach at my current income. So now my only option is to overload, raise my mining and energy talent by maybe one level each, and then grind for another 12 hours to maybe reach level 86 cube. Maybe instead of expeditions giving a numerical metal reward, which becomes pointless after a few resets, instead have the reward be a metal production/energy multiplier. Also, what's the point of the Fast upgrading talent? Waste of valuable resources to save a few seconds leveling up?

How can I get damage to defeat Desert Lvl 5 Striker? I need to send myself with 5 robots at least 100 times to do this mission (holding maybe for 30 seconds?). With any attack damage it could be defeated or something but I have no clue how to get that...

Wasted all points in building speed then I discovered that robot's building speed is capped at 5 and 7 seconds... an idle where you can't go faster...

Don't like the fast upgrading concept.it literally just slows upgrading the more important upgrades. Its also kinda stupid, we asked for a buy all which is present in most games and instead you give us a crutch for upgrading.

I had fun for some time, but even with new life multipliers, you very soon hit a "nothing goes" wall because costs increase way too fast. guess you have to get people to buy your premium stuff.
pretty sad, I really enjoyed the first hour or so

Really not liking the update that notifies me I can click something for the diamonds. I don't like downloading files to save a cloud game. Please put in a way to turn them off or just not include that one in the notifications.

So far my only complaint is the limit on the bot building other bots, an upgrade of only 5 is just not cutting it when I want to fill out the mass of bots I have room for.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
the fast upgrade talent was not necessary, you wanna know what we do need? a talent that lowers the inflation rate of upgrades.
