I really like how we can mash both mouse keys to upgrade our investments. It makes the early Lemonade stand upgrades a bit easier to do.

to the DEV: can you kindly show us the patch note in the Description, or somewhere, when the update is up, so we can figure out what new features there are?

I finally got the monocle! It was getting a little (very) unfair towards the end, but overall a great game. You really understood, what an 'idle game' is all about. Thank you! Let's see if that upgrade will make me play again...

BlackLoter: bribes to the planning/zoning commission to build yet more. (I mean we are systematicly displacing the rest of the world one business at a time)

Update from the Dev: greetings fellow Adventure Capitalists! Update #1 is nearly here. For those anticipating it - our studio rolls on Pacific Standard Time, so it's probably about 12 hours away. We just have some final bugs to iron out, and then we're golden. At that point, we'll be submitting the new build to Kongregate for upload (there's an extra step now that we're implementing the Kongregate API), so we're not totally sure how long it takes from there. But we'll notify you all when it's up. Thanks again for your patience! Our current plan is to launch Update #2 next week, so you won't have to endure such a long dry spell again. Cheers to you all, and thank you for your continued interest in Capitalism.

At high levels this game ilustrates pretty much the power of compound interest - oil rigs upgrade price increase 6% each upgrade compared to lemonade's 15%. shows that 1.15^300 can become significantly larger than 1.06^300.
Yes. We stealth launched the new version today, and ran into some minor size / text clipping issues. Once we get those ironed out tomorrow, we're going live!
Real answer: it's misdirection! You are meant to discover that Oil Rigs are more cost effective - and then purchasing more of the other investments becomes more about upgrading your Oil Rigs speed than actually benefiting from the investments (except Lemonade Stands. They're pretty much always awesome). We'll be putting in more stuff in future updates that throws a curveball into this however.
Fake answer: supply and demand! Newspapers are a dying industry, but Oil is still big Big BIG!

I found a bug, you get Angel Investors, while everyone knows business people have lawyers. lawyers are demons from hell who will steal your soul if you loiter for 30 seconds calling your wife, who wants to know what you want for dinner. Point is... Whats my point again?

So, lost my game after computer reset itself, now I'm just waiting for the update, clicking cookies in a different window.

Okay, so I've discovered a bug. (I don't know if this has already been reported) I'm playing on the latest Mozilla Firefox and if you shut down your computer without shutting down Firefox (As in, the computer shuts down everything) and then restart the computer and restore all the tabs, you get a massive boost on your investment which leads to a massive Angel investor boost. Before the restart I would have gotten roughly 13K AI's. After the reset I can now get 41k. Since this is just a game for your own personal enjoyment, it's not a horrible thing, but it might be something you want to check out.

300 of each building, 500k Angel Investors... I think I'm ready : Update is coming! There may not be capitalist dragons, but there'll sure be lots of money zombies. I'll be one of them! MOUHAHAH!!! :-D

Hm, I suppose I should open another lemonade stand in Boston. I already have 300, but any increase in income is welcome... Ah, here we go... 1 stand will cost 2.5 Billion...
Whelp, screw that. I'm going to go buy a Movie Studio for 1 Billion.

Please add a buy 10 and buy 100 option. Otherwise, great game, and I really like the way everything scales. Currently at ~170k angel investors and buying 300 of everything is starting to hurt my finger :(

i would appreciate it if the update came out today...maybe within the hour? im fine with it being tomorrow as its summer break so im not doing anything haha but i would really like for it to be today!

Also, another idle game out right now, Multiplicative Idle has a cool feature, it has an auto-buy feature on it, where it will automatically buy the cheapest, or the most expensive building available, the second you can afford it. That would be pretty neat to see on here.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
In the next update you should adjust the prices for purchase. the ones that get you the least money are the most expensive to buy after a certain point

Another cool feature for this game would be the ability to take out loans. Every good capitalist needs a boost in funds every once in a while.

I have an idea for that bag of money that's always teleporting around. Perhaps it could every once and a while appear on the screen for about 10 seconds. If you click it within this time it'll give you a income boost.

It would be good, that the values are represented with some shorter notation, either using SI prefixes, or powers of 10. There's no way I can differentiate between 15 and 18 digits without counting them slowly.

Think I found a cookie clicker replacement.
Bonus points if this game syncs between my work computer and home computer.

As I was admiring my enormous wealth I noticed that one of the many several bags of money I had left on the lawn appeared to be under the tire of my automobile. I wouldn't want my fortune to be soiled by my car tires. Developer would you be a sport and bring that bag forward a layer or two?

Derekteebor: I've already posted on the forums about how stupid the + & - system is, all what happens it idiots troll it. 99% of thumbed down posts in this game shouldn't have been thumbed down, and those that did the thumbing down are idiots who think questions shouldn't be asked.

@Moonfrost I already suggested that a few hours ago and got voted -5. You say almost the same thing and get +12??? WTF!!!
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
so only thing i really noticed is that the managers and achievements screens shake when they stray from center on the scroll bar, not really sure what that's about but otherwise enjoying the game very much

would be cool if there was an explanation on how angel investors were gained or even a way to speed it up either way very fun and great idea for an idle just seems like you should start to gain angel investors alot more quickly as you progress seeing as if you have 10k angel investors 1-2k doesnt do much in terms of speeding up getting back to where you were
