okay, im skeptical.
I thought you were Max. HAAAAAAAAA! HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!
I ACTUALLY LAUGHED AT THAT AHHAHAHAHHA
HAHAHAHA That joke cracks me up too. There has been a million variations of it across the years but DANG-iT if I don't laugh every time I see it! HAHAH Thanks for playing and the comment. Made me chuckle for sure! Best, -Tim
Uh oh!! well thank you for playing. very nice of you to hang in there till the end. I was mentioning below I had a few runs that were close to 10 hours! WHOOPS!! I do appreciate you taking a moment to write and thank you for that! Look for more games to come soon! Best,- Tim

I enjoyed this idle game more than others for the simple fact that you can finish it in one sitting. After a while playing a game for weeks that just idling become redundant and makes you hate the game. I would suggest that beyond just having messages come up when you upgrade you should have them cycle through a serious of preprogrammed lines that you can either then enjoy or ignore and could also make them never say the same thing twice so you wouldn’t cause repetition, but was worth a couple hours.
TOTALLY agree and thank you for that. I think you are pointing out one of the things I will be aiming to address on games going forward. I love random new dialog on stuff too. I think you are making an interesting case here about the lines I can draw from during the upgrade sessions. I like it! I'll have to go back to the lab and see what I can do with that. Boss 101 had this sort of thing going and I went with a new dialog system for Cosmic Clicks. I think maybe I can merge the best of both! Thanks for the comment and I appreciate you taking a moment to write! best, -Tim

Four stars! Well done, I might add "Idle" to the game name for things like this though. People search that a bunch, I dunno the system here at Kong anymore but if more plays and such is good for you maybe you should try it!
Thanks! I might do that. I added idle in the tags to alleviate and hopefully make it show up in the searches better. Feel free to (plus) the tag section if you like since it will help further searches. Finny side story - I called it Cosmic Clicks since I thought it was 'CLICK' that people would search for. Only afterwards seeing Idle Mine and a few others I realized it might be 'IDLE'.... hahahah dang-it! Thanks for the idea and the rating. I appreciate you taking a moment to write! Best, -Tim
It's a big one I know. There originally was some sort of thinking there but in the end I went with some gut check numbers. I'm definitely looking at the feedback and going to adjust accordingly if I do a sequel or major update. Thanks for dropping a note and commenting! I appreciate the time! Best, -Tim
Hmmm, yea, they do - the prices are different and they do different things thankfully. The naming for the ship is all over the place and I think Steve and Max make fun of it a few times. I do appreciate the comment and the fact you checked out the game! Best, -Tim
HA! No worries! I know I'm super slow at these sometimes. I think one of my runs with the current tunes was over 6 hours. Maybe 7. Thanks for playing and I hope you enjoyed it! Also - thank you for the comment! Best, -Tim
Yes! it does and it's not as long as some of the other clicker games. You *can* let it run forever if you like but the main game has a story and an ending you can get to fairly quickly 1-2 hours being a pretty decent clip and some have gone for as long as 8-10. It depends on how fast you want to go really. Thanks for check out the game! Best, -Tim
HAHAH - Make one!!! i'd love to play it! Believe me, I make no genius or complete originality claims here. As I said before, I'm standing on the shoulders of giants who made some really awesome clicker games. You should make one too! I bet it would be great and then I can learn something! HAHA Thanks for the comment and I look forward to your game. -Tim

I made it lol ....i loved the story xD , for anyone playing this gane READ EVERTHING you may laugh or cry (nope you wont cry.).
HAHAH! That is great! You know who made me laugh later *Spoiler alert* it was Rob. I dunno why but as I wrote him I couldn't help but crack a smile at what he would say. HAHAH. So glad you liked it and enjoyed the dialog. It was a blast to make and write! Thank you for the comment! Best, -Tim
Thank you! I really do appreciate you playing and going all the way to the end. That was awesome and very nice of you to comment about. You and the others are being really nice about the game and I'm happy people are enjoying it! Thank you! Best, -Tim
YES! What a great idea and I think that would be a neat thing to add to a big update or a sequel. Thanks for the suggestion. I think another person mentioned it too! Great stuff and I appreciate your time! Best, -Tim
Hmm, hahah. I know that if you upgrade all the engine column you are maximizing your idle money for sure! I'd have to look at the spreadsheet again but I think the H-Drives are the bang for buck best deal. Thanks for checking out the game and playing! I appreciate it! Best, -Tim

You know what could be kind of cool? Mixing this game with something like Faster Than Light or the other spaceship management games. Have it be an active-idle spaceship game, where crew stats/etc increase over time but increase more with upgrades/clicks. The ship could slowly improve, and you could maintain/enhance the dialogue that you've got going here. New upgrades could bring in new crew members, and new dialogue with them. That'd probably be fun.
HEY!! Where were you in the brainstorming sessions at Starbucks while we were talking about this!!! Good idea! I had some ideas about blowing this idea out a little more and you might be surprised to hear that some of your ideas match up with what I was thinking. LOVE IT! I might get on a sequel in a little while and I'm glad you enjoyed this game. It was super fun to make and the response has me considering a sequel sooner than later! Best, -Tim
AHHH! That is correct! Thanks for the check and when there's an update I'll make a note to correct it! Glad you played and got into the game a little bit! Thank you so much for the comment! Best, -Tim
Thank you. I am glad you like it! I was really thinking about making it this amazingly long game (like 2-4 weeks of idle/clicking) but in the end I am super happy I went with Steve and Max and made a nice little game with a goal. Thank you for the comment and taking a moment to write! Best, -Tim
Yes! I noticed that too. I didn't know about Idle Mine till after I was done with Cosmic Clicks but I played the heck outta Cookie Clicker and Candy Clicker. HAHA! Thanks for checking out this game! Best, -Tim
Ha - that's around my average time too. I idle a LOT and let the computer do the math! Thanks for playing and dropping a note! I appreciate it! Best, -Tim
Yeah, on the right side. I hear yah. I'm looking at some possible upgrades to the game and even a sequel with more types and kinds of upgrades. Thanks for playing and dropping a note! I appreciate it! Best, -Tim
YES! That's great. Thanks for playing and dropping in your time. To be completely honest there was a time when my trips were about two weeks! WHOOPS!! That was when things cost a little more than they did now. hahaha Thank you for playing and the comment! Best, -Tim

Yet another super awesome game. 4/5 for the clicker/idle style game, and the 5th star for the epic dialogue that come FREE with each upgrade. Keep up the good work, can't way for the Boss 101 Sequel
Thanks so much. I'm on the Boss 101 sequel right now and I want to make something you and the others will enjoy. More Steve and Max for sure! Thanks for playing this and Boss 101 - I'm doing my best and it's nice to hear you liked the games! Best, Tim

I don't really see the appeal in idle games, but I went ahead and tried this one, and it's pretty decent. The prices for upgrades are fair, and the dialogue can be funny at times. 2/5 as a game overall, 4/5 for an idle game.
Totally understand and thanks for taking a moment to comment and rate. I know the game may not be for everyone but if you got a laugh or two then that is great! Appreciate it and stay in touch ! best, -Tim
HA! I think there was a moment where I was testing and trying out the math and the intent was the H-Drives were supposed to be ultra awesome. Maybe they are too awesome, eh? Perhaps a price adjustment. Thank you for the post and the idea! I'm glad when people enjoy the game and want to help improve it! Best, -Tim

I often end up with enough money to buy many upgrades at once; I would like to be able to hold in shift and buy 10 at once, at least. Please.
That's an interesting idea. I am certainly looking a sequel to this and would be adding features. Thanks for playing and posting a note. I appreciate your time! Best, -Tim
Thank you for playing, finishing and the nice comment! Glad you enjoyed it and it's nice to hear your feedback! More games are coming so stay tuned! Take care and best! -Tim
Well done! Thanks for playing and taking a moment to comment. It's so nice to hear from you and the others. I appreciate you stopping by, checking it out and finishing the game. Best, -Tim

First overall great game, i absolutely love most of the dialogs, it's hard to make somebody laugh with this short dialogs but you did it, the artwork is pretty good for an idle game, but there is a point which isn't perfect in my eyes. Balancing ! Once u have the first HDRIVE update everything else is useless ...
Yeah, that was one of the balancing issues I was looking at. You might find it interesting that an early version took about two plus weeks to 'finish' without using an auto-clicker and it wasn't much faster WITH an auto-clicker. I pulled out a spreadsheet and did a bit of math to figure out an optimal upgrade path. Those H-drives are totally buff I agree and make you tons of "speed" for the run. They do help upgrade any and all remaining areas though. Thank you for the comment too and the thoughts. Really good to hear the feedback from you and the others! Hope you check back as more games are coming! Best, -Tim
DANG!! That is awesome. Thanks so much for playing and checking the game out!! Very nice of you to post a time too! I hope you check in from time to time as we make more games! Best, -Tim

been playing the game for a while now. do beams and shields have a purpose? there's talk of space pirates but i have upgraded both devices quite a bit and have not once seen a pirate? the beams are also supposed to pick things up but i haven't seen any evidence of this either?
Yeah, mostly clicking for upgrades on your ship and watching Steve and Max talk. It's kinda like the Cookie Clicker type games if you have played those but there is a little storyline added and an objective (race around the galaxy). Thanks for at least checking the game out! I appreciate it! Best, -Tim

Fun game, and the characters are funny. Just some suggestions: Maybe some minigames where you actually pilot the ship would be great. Also some interactions with the characters may be interesting. 5/5. Hope to see more of these games soon.

im not very far in, but as someone who put a LOT of time into idle games, this is by far my favorite. the upgrades all feel good, the music, OH THE MUSIC! and best of all, S.T.E.V.E. and max are funny as heck! i laughed at this in ways i never did with Cooke clicker. 5/5!
HA!! Thank you. I have to tell you right this second I am standing on the shoulders of GIANTS. There is no way I could have done this game without Cookie Clicker or Candy Clicker or any of those games. They paved the way and allowed me a chance to do my own version. Thank you for checking this out and commenting. It's inspiring to hear from the gang here and know people had some fun. That's what games are for, right? Thanks again and take care! Best, -Tim
Hey thank you! Very nice of you to say that and I'm so glad you took a moment to write something in the comment section! I do read these and appreciate the feedback! Thank you and best! -Tim

DARK TIMMY you have very much potential and this game more inspiration to be more popular than idle mine continue to create fun games i will enjoy them every time :)
Thank you so much. What a very nice thing to say. When I make a game it's really for YOU and for the others here and everywhere. Once the game is online it's free and the world will decide how exciting it is. I'm really happy to hear you enjoyed it. Every single time I hear that someone laughed at a joke or enjoyed some bit if gameplay I'm excited all over again! Really is nice to know you liked the game! I plan on making more games and thank you for your support! Best, -Tim
Aw man, thank you. When I create a game I wonder how it will do. I'm sure many people have felt this at one point or another in their lives for various reasons. I have to say I LOVED the game as I made it but man, I wondered about the reaction. At first it was a clicker game with no Steve and Max but when they were added it became a little something more I think. So thanks again for the nice words and I indeed am thinking of a sequel to this! Thank you again! Best, -Tim
HAHAH! OK - that is awesome. Thanks for coming back! Glad you liked it and dropped nice rating on it! Who knows, maybe you and the others will inspire a sequel! Thank you and best, -Tim

I am loving it so far. You did a great job. But I would really like a way to have a way to see the discussions after I "unlocked" them(it's easy to miss them when you are frantically clicking upgrades and buying space-ship upgrades). 6/5 :D
Hey - that's a nice idea? I wonder maybe if there can be a diary or something of the dialogs where you can go and read them. That is a nice idea for a future version for sure! Thanks for the reply! It's great to hear from you and the gang here. I had a lot of fun making this game and the dialog and ship upgrades were a blast to do! Best, -Tim

I'm playing it now, and i'm pretty advanced! I got 20 upgrades, and i'm about to get COMPUTER AI 3! Very great game. Someone maybe think that this is a bad copy of cookie clicker, but this awesome game has something Cookie Clicker will never have.
S.T.E.V.E. and Max!
HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!
Deal with it, bro. This game is just awesome.
P.S. while i was writing this comment, I got enough money to get Computer AI 3, so only 9 upgrades remained! I just love S.T.E.V.E. and Max!
Thank you for the rating and the comment! I appreciate it. Personally, I think Steve and Max are a nice addition. They certainly made the game a lot more fun for me to create. Glad you enjoyed the game it was a blast to make. I don't know if you are aware but there WILL be a sequel to Boss 101 with, you guessed it, Steve and Max. I'll post more details as they come! Thank you again and I am so happy to hear you had fun! Best, -Tim
Thanks. I appreciate the comment and the rating! Very nice of you. I love the clicker games and there are a ton of really good ones out there. I thought it might be nice to make one with my characters and wrap it in a little more adventure-y setting. I'm happy with the way the game come out and as you might imagine, I see 1,000,000 ways I would like to make another one only bigger, better and with even more stuff for people to upgrade and click on. Thanks again for the words and take care! Best, -Tim
Well, that is really nice of you to say and I hope you feel that way AFTER you play! HAHA. I did really like making this game and outside of Boss 101 it was one of the easiest, funnest games I have written and developed. I love Steve and Max - they are super easy to write as characters, they kinda write themselves really. yah - check it out and see what you think! Thanks again and best, -Tim

Hey all, Tim here, creator of Cosmic Clicks. Thanks so much for stopping by and checking out the game. I hope you enjoy it! I do read all your comments and feedback and appreciate if you take a moment to write something down. Feel free to contact me about anything! Best, -Tim
Indeed it is! Well, one may argue Cookie Clicker is the mega daddy of the clicker games along with Candy Clicker. This is sorta the pared down adventure version of a clicker game. You do have a finish line of sorts you can hit (and still play past). Overall though - it's intended to be a fun game set in the Boss 101 universe with Steve and Max. I appreciate you checking it out and thanks for the comment! Best, -Tim
