Thank you for you comment. Sacrifice points are now awarded one by one. Though, the amount of money needed to get one more points is much more lower than before.

Under rating threshold (show) After ascend a few time in the latest version. Here is my opinion of the ascend system. 1. The 20% critical chance and 20 critical power bonus is over power. It make the profit a few dimension higher. i think it should have a separate cost from other with extremely high slope. 2. starting money is useless. 3. potion last too long....... hope there is way to overwrite the potion effect, instead of waiting 1 hour+ to change the effect. Btw, the latest version is rather laggy. It is so lag that it sometime lock my keyboard. (firefox)

Thank you for your suggestion. The next Update will rebalance the ascension system.

Under rating threshold (show) Really need to change the ascension system so the cost only increases for the one you pick. Currently I would have to pay several thousand points in order to start over with $50. I would have to be mad... Other than that really enjoying this version.

Ascensions has been rebalanced. Each skills now have it's own cost once unlocked.

Under rating threshold (show) the big update window is fine. i think it would be good if the titles are chooseable in the big update window too (as a drop down menu or as a button with a new opening window for every of the 8 mainworker). with that the title button become unnecessary and could be deleted,the upgrade button goes top to the options and ascension buttons. the inventory button become unnecessary too because there is no reason to switch that windowframe anymore.

Under rating threshold (show) As a fan of the original, I'm going to leave some constructive criticism. 1) We need more digits of accuracy in the production rate. At least 3 significant digits, please? (like the original) 2) We need standard units across all workers. I'm constantly doing mental math converting between seconds/minutes. 3) There is no current way to tell upgrade effects. How much does a particular enchant add? Also, we really need a global MPS. 4) The blacksmith is extremely underpowered. In the original, blacksmith critical would produce more items. Now, it's just another way of increasing value. This means that in the later game, your blacksmith is the main thing you are short on. 5) The menu system is still very difficult to use. The nice thing about the original was that everything was on the same screen, so you could easily compare production rates of each worker. The current game requires a ton more clicking to find what you want. 6) Ascension is still extremely underpowered after the update.

Under rating threshold (show) Obviously the point of the game is the blacksmith, but with the Druid's potions being sellable as well, I want to draw attention to the fact that the Fine Speed Potion (without criticals) sells for (I have level two inflation so it may differ slightly from everyone else) around $8 Bill. However, with my current upgrades it requires 6 fingerroot and 16 sphene, which were I to sell them individually instead of making them into a time consuming potion would yield me $398 Bill. Potions should be worth more than the components needed to make them, or at least be comparable.

Under rating threshold (show) Loving this game but as i go deeper in I'm finding that the rate of progression compared to the cost of upgrades is a lose lose... like in most idle games you have to spend a lot more later in the game.... but also things you make should have increased payouts because you aren't just upgrading one worker... you're upgrading 8.

Under rating threshold (show) Any chance we could get an info window for stats? Would love to see my total work power bonus, crit chance/multiplier etc for each worker. It can sometimes be difficult to judge whats the best e.g. title to pick is since bonuses are coming from like 4 or 5 different sources (upgrades, achievement, potions, titles, SP).

Under rating threshold (show) love the new upgrade window! but it would be nice to see a bit more tweaking to ascension, it takes forever to get anywhere and with the current system as it is i feel more like im just scratching at a wall than slowly progressing uphill. maybe give each bonus their own pricing set, rather than a global price? it shouldnt be too easy but right now it feels way too hard. 3 days with it open 16 hours a day and upgrading periodically every 10-30 min and i only have about 10 ascension levels to show for it which amounts to all of a 50% speed increase. it feels really low especially where i am as upgrading speed takes 50+ levels to show any difference, but the cost of each upgrade is about 5-10 min of idling. again i absolutely love this game! cant wait to see the new tweaks and improvements

Under rating threshold (show) New upgrade menu is nice. I was at one point idly hoping for a pop-up upgrade menu just for each worker, so that one could just click out of it instead of specifically switching back to the inventory screen., and this is even better! Maybe also make a similar thing for Titles?

Under rating threshold (show) There is a bug with the enchanter when offline. He stops working. I just tested this a few times. My BS is producing significantly slower than my Enchanter, yet after coming back from a few hours, I gained very little money and now have ~1000 items in backlog that needs to be enchanted.

Under rating threshold (show) Big problem for an idle game - when I close the window and come back, the game often doesn't recognize how long I've been away. For example, I'm away overnight, but my money increases as if I'd only been gone five minutes (but oddly enough, I still find a ton of new potions in my inventory).

Under rating threshold (show) I found Ascension less to be desired. Is it possible to make each Ascension upgrade have its own price scale ? For example if I buy Fast Working other still stay same price. That way I will Ascension more often since there always something in my price range. Just a though

Under rating threshold (show) The upgrade window seems like a nice addition for those who likes the first part. I find the new interface comfortable enough. The game still seems a bit slow. And I don't think the problem lies in the prices. The work power curve is very shallow. It takes like over 130 levels to double your power (when price rises many times faster), which makes most of the progress rely on the ascension system. That would be fine and all in turn, but the cost curve of ascension rewards is so high that I can already see the soft limit on the horizon despite playing for but three days. So, yeah, still needs some twicking if you want to get it correctly, espcieally without making the game too easy. You have to somehow bring both curves (the work power and ascension reward) closer together so that they can go, hopefully ad ifinitum. It's all mathematics in the end.

Under rating threshold (show) the ascension system. ive improved a couple of things and it was rather expensive in SP yet i dont feel any improvement. the improvement there is might be too low. so either make the stats count more or cost less. there also seem to be a bug with the "cash needed for next point" at a point u will need like 5aD once its reached the next points needs like 100Tr. seems odd u need that many just to unlock the next once with that less money.

Under rating threshold (show) would be nice with a countdown option instead of the bars filling at the bottom. you could make it as an extra option. atm theres the 1.2/s or 4/m but it aint precise at all.

Under rating threshold (show) 3 days in i accidentally reset my game. I ascended twice and it was still probably going to take me a full day to get my enchanter. Second time around, havent ascended once. only been playing 30 hours maybe? and I'm 10 times further... That should tell you how wack your system is.

Under rating threshold (show) Love the big upgrade window! Also I saw someone mention this earlier, I would also enjoy a toggleable "shake" on the bottom for when things crit. It would be nice to be on my enchanter and see my BS just crit or my Merchant just crit.

Under rating threshold (show) Thanks for the upgrade window... it's a step in the right direction, but a couple of suggestions: 1) Show the current price on each button. You will need to cut down on the text, but "Mining Power" could just become "Power" as there is a mining symbol at the top and so on... 2) Make it so that the prices change when you hold a key to buy multiples. Holding ctrl to buy 10 would be very helpful to know what it will cost!

Apr. 14, 2015

Under rating threshold (show) I like the big upgrade window, but think it should have it own button, since I also like to be able to switch to the upgrades of an individual character. And like others have mentioned, Ascension upgrades should be individual, and could have different starting points and increase rate; "Rich starter" could start low in cost, with a fairly low increase, while "Inflation" could start higher (since it is more useful) and increase faster, etc. Keep up the great work :) 5/5

Under rating threshold (show) Also I think specialist upgrade buttons have to be placed on main screen (under main progress bar for example). Ideal solution will be to place management of all workers on one screen (how it was on first part of the game).

Metalmade

Apr. 14, 2015

Under rating threshold (show) Each upgrade should be independent from the others in the Ascension System. Why would i ever put SP into "Rich Starter" if it raises the cost of the other Upgrades? The Second thing i would change slightly would be the Upgrade costs of the Blacksmith and the Enchanter. These two are a huge Bottleneck. My Blacksmith lvl 430 can´t keep up with my smelter lvl 315 and i can´t upgrade my Blacksmith because it is to expensive. Besides these two things i really enjoy the game and i really hope you consider these two changes.
