Idle Potato Update 1.5
IMPORTANT:
Reset the high score board, because of a cheater.Just play the game and your data will be re-submitted, Sorry for the inconvenience :/. Also faster potato spawn rate, and the slope is more sloped :D
I'm sorry to hear that D: we will let everyone know when we find out what is causing it to not save, but it seems like either Unity is crashing or the temporary files are being deleted somehow?... D:
Go to the upgrade room and buy the shuttle bay in the bottom right corner it unlocks another section to the game! :D also go to the main menu and check out the hall of fame that's where the achievements are! :D

Nice little idle game. There are a few interesting issues that may not been pointed out earlier: 1.) This is the first unity game I seen so far where my save gets lost when I clean up browser history. (was kinda surprised by that to be honest) 2.) Idle earnings stops when I am in the upgrade menu. Production still works. 3.) Gain from production is the same regardless of initial investment (4 cycles to get even) thus it is more a convenience factor to choose the highest possible rather than a real decision (actually with an auto clicker you can get the same result) My point is that for a higher investment there should be a slightly higher reward.
Thanks for your comment
1.) I dont know why the saves are being lost,
they should be fine -_- , they work for me and my brother,
but we will look into it and try to fix it. also if your using chrome
it may have saving issues try firefox! D:
EDIT:Idle Potato Update 1.6 : saving should work better.
2.) Yes the idle cam is only in the Play! area, and the reason for that is
production follows you into space, so you earn money from production while flying.
3.) We will take that into consideration when updating the game and try to implement something! :D
4.) ^
Thanks for your suggestions! :D

Can you add export codes or something to this? I'd like to continue where I left off when I switch from my potato (pun intended) to a more powerful rig... mmm, taters... This game has made me suddenly have a craving for fries, fiesta potatoes, etc...
C:\Users\(UserName)\AppData\Roaming Copy the Unity Folder, when you get the new rig, paste the Unity folder in the same path C:\Users\(UserName)\AppData\Roaming (Do this after you installed the Webplayer!) That should carry over your saves. If you need any further assistance please feel free to PM or contact me how ever you can :D *AppData folder not showing?* *http://www.blogtechnika.com/what-is-application-data-folder-in-windows-7/*
Note: You will still have to download the Web player again, when you get your new rig. Also Thanks for enjoying our second game Idle Potato :D

part 2 1:golden potatoes need to be much rarer and worth much more 2:the same thing for farm factories and possibly other factories

And the goal of this game is what??? just clicking patatoes??? it bored the **** out of me after just 2 minutes. Also i am missing a tutorial.
Graphic wise it looks nice but like i said before gameplay value 0/10 , what the hell do i need to do (lack of tutorial)

This is something different after a while :D At least it have some potential to growth.
Some quick suggestions to improvement:
Make the upgrade screen like transparent overlay, so you could see through it and it's do not stop the idle production of potatoes.
How about make upgrades for special potatoes? Like give to the space potato it's final effect gradually by for example 5-10% so it'll become what it should be after a series of upgrades.
Make upgrades to the slope so it will become narrower with each one and so you can choose which one to place (even to disable slope).
And the last one that I have on my mind after 30mins of playing: limit of 100 Max-potatoes on the screen is not enough! WE NEED MORE POTATOES! :D
P.S. Some personal question: Why the potatoes? Are you from the
Republic Of Belarus?;)
Production follows you no matter where you are at, not the idle cam! :D Thank you for your feedback!, we will take your suggestions into consideration when updating the game, and because we have some Irish in us XD

Unfortunately it didn't safe on my first try, my firefox crashed while trying to shut down, so I dont know why it wouldn't save. Something else: It would be nice to receive idle gains while in the upgrade menu!

And have the music just pause when we go into the shop, not restart completely. I've heard the first thirty seconds of these songs far too many times compared to hearing them all the way through.
Thanks for the suggestion!, we will try to add that to the next update, but in the meantime the mute button in the bottom right corner silences everything! :D

the FIRST thing you need to think about before releasing a game is getting to check if the SAVING works or add a SAVE button if you can't make an automatic one work, bye don't wonder why you lose players
As far as I know the saving is working fine I have reloaded and come back multiple times and not lost my data :D EDIT: I even cleaned my temporary files and I still have my save, so I don't know what would cause that?...

The "Idle Potato" upgrade could use some scaling changes. As is, every time you buy it, it doubles in cost, and doubles yield. That means that it will take the same amount of time to reach it, no matter how far it is upgraded, and it will continue giving this exponential growth of income. Something that may help instead, would be to have the upgrade increase idle potato value by 1, while increasing the cost of the upgrade by 1.1x, for example. That would give it a linear yield to gains, and an exponential increase to cost. I haven't checked any of the other upgrades yet, but if they work the same way, some change to scaling would be required.
I understand what you mean, it would be unfair to change it now considering people have already played it, but your feedback does not fall on deaf ears, we will do better on our next game, if it is an idle game :D
EDIT:*Could you add in the Shuttle bay at the end, you also go there and fly :D*<-other than that- Awesome Video, Thank you for credit in the description :D

Cool game but the start is boring - what if you had more varieties of potato? Slime potatoes, Burning ones that you need to put Ice Potatoes on. Or a little potato man that runs around the screen maniacally. Something small and unique but easy to implement. Just a thought.
I don't remember what the track names are, they are all copyright free, when i got them i renamed them to Track 1 etc.. I wanted it to feel more like a mix tape then anything :D

Whoa, wait. Does it not save? Or did it just not because Unity crashed? I just lost hours of stuff. Not that big a deal because I'm gonna wait a few updates but still a bummer.
It is probably because Unity crashed, I'm sorry you lost your progress I wish there was something I could do, but I can tell you that we are working on updates at the moment and there will probably be an update soon! :D EDIT: we have added a lot of updates by now.

I like this game a lot please add more silly stuff like more glowy potatoes that do different things they dont have to be super complicated, maybe like party potato glows all different colors and when you get one (rare) it picks up all potatos on the screen or something silly like that
also more upgrades

Fix for Chrome:
Copy this: " chrome://flags#enable-npapi " into your URL,
and enable the NPAPI, and it should work! :D
I'm glad this is working for everybody! :D EDIT: If unity says, Can’t install latest web player,
Just click install manually, and reinstall unity web player! This game requires the latest unity web player! EDIT: Chrome will be taking this fix away soon :/ when this happens hopefully unity will make a work around....fingers crossed :D

They look like turds and tator tots x3 I wish you could progress a bit quicker to auto-click though. Over all pretty fun 7/10
What happened with Unity?
Fatal content error: Check your graphics card, If your computer is not using your GPU, then it is more than likely using an on board graphics card(that does not support shaders).If you have a graphics card then (check for the latest drivers from the manufacture of the GPU) or (Check what plug in you have the monitor plugged into) if the monitor is not plugged into your graphics card, then plug the monitor into the graphics card, and reboot your pc.

I really want to know which songs these are. I like all of them, and want to listen to them more often. Anyone (including you justme) know what they are called so I can find them on youtube?
The font on which screen? or is it the font everywhere? Thanks for your comment! EDIT:potatoes are less dark now, so they should look more like taters.
You can indeed click the potatoes in the air(its just hard to click them while they are falling),The Production bar is the only source of money that follows you around.*unless* you mean the game freezes then i don't know why it would be doing that.

Please, make more of these innovative and inspired idle games! I'm just always so excited when I see another one come by, as i'm convinced i'll be spending hour upon hour of discovering new features and exploring all the different gameplay possibilities. Best of all, each new idle never rehashes any content of any other idle game out there. Thank you so much for creating this, instead of putting your time into something senseless.

alrighty, let's start off 1: maybe MORE BOXES 2:this one's a reminder a SLOPED box so you just have to collect potatoes in the center 3: maybe a juggling thing? like if you keep potatoes in the air you get a bonus 4: make golden potatoes (potatos? screw it) much rarer and much more valuable because it's kinda unbalanced right now 5: maybe an upgrade that increases bar speed but adds little evil living potatoes that eat potatoes
itsjustme3:The auto-click does not pick up those, because they disappear after so long, and it is suppose to add challenge to the clicking aspect :D Thanks for the feedback though :D *Edit:slayerbp666: We have added this in an update! :D *
