Everybody talking about how great this game is is frankly insane. Right now it's very, very standard. I like what you've done with the inverse multipliers on price, but until you add more multipliers to those initial investments it won't feel quirky or original. It's just a giant obstacle. It's a step backwards in an idle game to make idlers wait the longest for something that does the least.
Angels are comparable to the heavenly chips of CC, but are far too abundant. With 747 million angels and about 600 per second coming in, they are quickly another statistic. And that's all this game is, statistics.
This game is in dire need of lower numbers overall, and a higher exponent on the angel price increase. I've read some of your reddit jank so I know you're working on other things, but this game will have no special sauces at this rate.

Well today it seemed to happen to me - after the weekend i had well over 150 billion AIs -- almost 500 of everything and decided to reset once again. Well end of story - it will not load again - it simply stops loading when unity player logo comes up. Anything i could do there?

Oil company lvl 572 is cheaper than shrimp boat 488.
Hockey team 501 is also cheaper than shrimp boat 488.
Should it really be like that?

Well my computer crashed and about a weeks worth of work is now gone. Is there any way to restore my ~170K angel investors?

why newpaper is more expensive than all of thing in this game ( newpaper 300 =97 quintilion > oil company 300 =16 quintilion)

Just like Super Mario, this game was cool as shit when it came out but once you beat it, it gets boring fast. At least Mario got harder and harder as you progress. This one does the opposite. I'll take a princess over oil any day.

I wait a long time to comment on idlers. After a month of playing, this is a genre setter. I gave 4 stars a month ago, I give 5 stars ++ today after some welcomed changes to upgrading and for holding my interest for a month. The perfect leveling and upgrade system along with angel investors all contribute to making this a phenomenally well balanced game. I wish all developers from free gaming to $60 titles could find that "it" this game has when it comes to replayability. A plateau has been set for the next great idler. Very very well done game.

newspaper lvl 288 cost to upgrade 18.16 quint, movie theater lvl 290 cost to upgrade 12.791 quint... this does not at all make sense

Cost of upgrades seemed to increase when I reset the game. Lemonade Stand x3 read as 2 Quint but I couldn't buy at 2 Quint and it ended up costing around 2.5

only a bug report, something simple but just sayin', when you switch to the upgrades tab from the settings one the scrollbar bugs, and gets the size it had before the update. Again, nothing important, just a small bug

OK I am tired of seeing comments like"lol ur math is wrong Newstand cost more than oil rigs lol must be bug". Read Iceman's comment, Newstand has highest increase % while Oil rig and Lemonade have lowest.

Suggestion: make it possible to sell or at least undo purchases; I bought more than I intended to because I forgot it was set to x10. Having 205 of one thing and 200 of everything else is really bothering my OCD.

Maybe I'm doing the math wrong (I have 500+ of it, but not the all-500 achievement) but Lemonade doesn't seem to pay any significant contribution in end-game - unlike what some suggest that it and Oil are the only useful investments. I'm estimating ~13749 ticks/s, even at 3.24E+015$/t that only works out to 4.45E+019 $/s. Newspapers (with much fewer units at the 400/all speed) makes 1.16E+020 $/s. Lemonade might be cheap, but it's still not worth it in this update (for anything other than the achievements).

Your math is wrong on the purchases. I had $4.445 quadrillion and purchased a $2 quadrillion upgrade and now have 1.729 quadrillion.

I agree with iceman23 analysis. I would love to get all the achievements - but if the 500th Newspaper Delivery costs 1,941,879,765,789,736,884,847,423,017,640 - then it is not viable. Once you have several billion angel investors, only Lemonade stands (initially after a reset) and Oil rigs play any contribution to wealth generation - the rest only need to be upgraded to reach the 25,50,100,200,300,400 levels in order to boost Oil Rig production. Once Oil production is above 400 then all the returns in the other categories become negligible. I don't mind the switch around in upgrade costs - but the profits should also be switched around. 1st rule of Capitalism - any investment should return a profit in a reasonable time scale, if it does not then the investment opportunity should be avoided. Trying to raise Newspaper Delivery to 500 units breaks that rule. Smile - its just a game !!

Hey guys! First things first: You did a great job with the last updates and the re-balance. The only thing I'm currently missing most is a $/sec or $/min, whatever you like better ;)
Keep up the great work!
