@ teh_gameaddict the previous update news said they needed a couple of weeks to clean up/rework the code and the update today (the 15th) was to hold us over until that new stuff comes alone. if memory serves...i dunno how to view older update news.

@Times8: "Angel investors" is a term used to describe wealthy individuals willing to associate with and fund new startups. This is mirrored in-game by the bonus to income provided to the different industries.

Not too big a fan of spending investors. I guess it's ok for the upgrades that boost profits etc., but the upgrades to buy a bulk of buildings are just a bit... odd.

just a question, how is it efficient to purchase any of those upgrades with angel investors since we would be subtracting from the number of angel investors that are currently boosting our interest rates? A x3 to all? By that time we should have the interest rates up to 6% which would mean 50 Angel investors are giving us the x3... unless I am missing something shouldn't it be from the angel investors that have yet to be implemented (aka the ones we would gain upon a soft reset)?

Great to see so much progress on this game. Since I know the devs look here for feedback, I would like support for the mouse scroll wheel on the upgrades tab.
On the settings tab, I would like to see the time of the current play session (since last reset).
Good job.

Soooo, where's the "micro-management" feature? It was listed under "working on next" but now it's just gone. I don't see anything indicating an "anti-idle" feature.

They Should Add A Two Player Mode With Buttons For Upgrades so you can see who can get the most money!
Also they should fix the bug to where if you very fast repeaditly press the upgrade, it wont remove the manager!

I wonder how far the numbering goes before it starts counting in scientific notation. I feel like I must play until I find out.

Great Update... I was happily busy during the bugginess! For the upgrade screen, how about a grid (with each type all lined up) instead of a giant scroll list... it's getting kinda cumbersome.
Also is the lemonade stand money not contributing to angel investors intentional? Either way, on first blush I think this will fix many of the problems people were having.

@times8 - Angel investors are early stage investors that typically give a lot less money than typical venture capitalists would provide to a business. However, the terms are also generally less controlling than a typical round of venture capital would impost on the company. The game's angel investors are related in name only, but the concept does exist in the real world. http://www.investopedia.com/terms/a/angelinvestor.asp

Spotted a bug? After new update non-oil investment became actually usefull and generate for me more than half revenue. Yet, if i look at speed of aquiring angel investors - it seems that 90% of it is due to oil revenue, and lemonade, newspaper,etc do not generate them at all, or their input is much less than in cash.

I'm interested in capitalism only to the extant that I am interested in subverting it entirely. Is this game still for me?

I have a question about a key concept of the game. How does the concept of angel investors relate to capitalism or economics? If it does not, then where did the idea for angel investors come from?

I can't figure out why, but my game will not save, regardless what I do. Short of maybe clearing my cache entirely (removing the game save) I don't know how to fix this.

I was getting 1 billion AI a day after being stuck at around 10 billion AI but after the update I now already have 30 billion. Nice.

Oil rig is now taking 8 seconds instead of 4 because in the new update getting 500 doubles the profits instead of doubling the speed.
Read the achievement descriptions, people.

Does sacrificing angels influence the rate at which you get new angels?
More specificly;
Is the amount necesary for your next angel based on the total amount of angels earned ever or on the amount of angels you have at that moment?

every time im close to finally beating this game you extend the overall total goal to win and it sucks. but i love this game

Oh come on, they have a *couple* microtransactions that you don't at all need to enjoy the game. It adds and option for those of us who *wanted* to contribute, but didn't break the game for those who don't. It's capitalism, and if you don't like it, you didn't really like this game.

Dsilver88 they only put it in because some people want to show monetary support for a great game. The one bonus is completely useless exept for a fasion statement and the other makes small difference

for the first time, an upgrade I am morally conflicted in buying. I'll do almost anything for money...but "Rebooted Sequels" just may be too evil for me to profit from! :)
