Pro Tip: As in all mining games, the fastest way to gain money is to stick to the highest mineral that you can one-shot. (i.e. has less hitpoints than your auto-miners or manual click.)

You should change the text to be more accurate since it doesn't actually double each time, it is more accurate to say it is (new value = original value * playthrough number)

Ok so after last balancing my thoughts - miners are useless after like 20.. too expensive and the damage is more than enough from hardness itself. Miners are too weak at start (that might be good tho..). Prestige is WAY too cheap.

I deal 800M damage and the mineral have 200M hp, I need 10 hardness to the next mineral => I only have to increase hardness ... (nanocrystaline mk.70)

prestige still does not double payout. increases by about 50%. it also increases the price of each upgrade by what seems to be about 20-30% per prestige. for some reason starts on ceasium as well. didnt even know there was a training material.

this game is beyond bugged right now after the thing. wont let me change rocks and the save/submit shop stuff is weird.

Now that I think more clearly...I really shouldn't have gone with prestige.. It took me all the way back to where I began, which was the purpose, but, it was pretty much the exact same. There isn't any difficulty increase. By doubling prices and payout, you essentially made it seem harder, when in fact, it is the same as it was before. I am ususally impressed by idle mining games, but this one really isn't as good as I would have originally thought. Your idling isn't worth anything until you get up to a high enough level, and even still, all it does is take over your control, and make the game grow gradually boring, and removes the desire to see the end. Sorry man, I can't give much in the ways of stars. I'll give a 2/5 just for the idea and the basics.

Does this really just consist of clicking on a rock over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over??

Prestige does not double the payout at 2nd buy! You just add +1 to a multiplier.
So w/o buying any prestige upgrade it is x1, buying first makes it x2, buying 2nd makes it x3 etc.
So no real double-up on the income!

prestige is useless because all prices raise too at the same ratio. i see no point in upgrading it besides the raised miner cap. it would be much more fun if the prices stay the same.

Going to another page with another window with this open works when it loses focus; it just doesn't show it until you click on the game again.

Please remember guys. You need to save, there is currently no autosave either there is no auto save or I magically lost my save.

Prestige doesn't double earnings after the first time you do it, it only raises it by the original payout amount. (3 prestige = x4, for example, and 9 prestige = x10). However, it also raises your max miners by 10 each time as well.... (to the people who said prestige raises prices - it only raises the price of the next prestige, not everything.)

For those that are complaining about prestige only raising payout and prices...It does something else. Your max amount of hired miners appears to be your prestige level X 10.

There is no point in clicking after you get maxed miners. The rocks do not reset fast enough for my clicking to matter.....

Found a bug where if I clicked the highscore menu to check my rank then clicked back to the game it gave me 14 trillion gold or more depending on how long the game was paused from clicking outside of it. This for some reason also put me in first place for minerals mined in highscore please delete it as it's not fair to others. It also says I prestiged twice but I only have once. Cool game though cheers!
This may have been around the time the away timer was broken...and prestige was broken. Problem is I'm throwing in updates constantly throughout the day, yet some people still have very old version because Idle games are meant to be kept open :P

The game is actually very good looking, I love the presentation and the simplicity is great, but I can't really be bothered to waste time playing this anymore because the balancing causes the game to basically be broken, and I actually really do want to play this game so I'd appreciate it if you fixed it. :)

This game is incredibly poorly balanced. The last rocks are never the most profitable, you need to make higher levelled rocks make more money. Because you can destroy the level 10 rock or whatever in 2 hits for 300. But level 15 rock takes 10 hits, but only gives twice as much. I've had the game running for about 16 hours.

That's how Prestige works:
Payout = (base Payout) x (Prestige)
Upgrade Cost = (base Upgrade Cost) x (Prestige)
Max Miners = 10 x Prestige
The only advantage Prestige adds is the incremented Max Miners count that let you reach higher and higher money per second each time you reset the game
