you need to work on making sure our saves make it through versions. I lost 12 hours of progress today when you updated.

That's too bad about the Kong's HTML 5 issues.
Would you mind uploading an update with a version with a loading screen mentioning its status?

The game loads for me on the very newest Chrome (I just had the 3 green bars on Chrome and went ahead and closed tabs up with OneTab addon). So maybe it's just certain versions or browsers that it fails on?
Hi ! I tried some hours ago, and the game loaded indeed, but it was not the good game (it was someone else's game, zombie vs aligator, something like that). I don't think the browser has anything to do, if you reload the page you may have some previous random version, and if you resume the game on a previous version, I let you imagine how that messes up the save, and thus the game. I think the best is to wait for some final version, HTML5 updating system is very unstable here.

I've been seeing some weird stuff with corpses attacking slimes if the same type of bug is alive elsewhere on the screen. Also, there has been a weird graphic bug where food and matter float around the screen, but it seems to be directly linked to a worker.

I'm stuck in the overland area, the one with lots of large bugs. Not sure if there is a way to get back underground. Any time I double click, it just reloads the overland map.

It's a game about bugs that has lots of bugs and everytime bugs are fixed, there are more bugs. You sir, are a genius.

Why is this game always going one step forward and two steps back? Can it not just get fixed already? (Game is now getting stuck on the loading screen. The load progression bar changes from blue to red and stops moving.)

dead ladybugs still do damage to units. and I see a unit that's grey, with 0 life, that's still crawling very slowly. (version 1.51)

Also waypoint problems when lice get resources to far away point instead of close one. Also it seems that fight is somehow flawed - if if get to fighters they sometimes work worse, when together - like i can clear wasp nest with two big guys, if i send them one after another. But if I send them together they die.

Level with competing colony is not so great of idea - it's not cool when enemy get 1:1 upgrade for your upgrades - kinda devaluates the whole upgrading idea. Also - rotating wasp bodies bug me a lot.)
The shame is that I hate when games (like RPG) are doing this. But to be honest I did not thought that someone would go that far. Last level needs a bit of rework and balancing, but since there's nothing after yet it is not at the top of my todo list.
About rotating wasps, this has been fixed, we just have to wait that Kongregate publishes the update.

Since the last update, I have been stuck above ground. Double clicking to go below again isn't working. I'm sure this will be resolved eventually, just wanted to make it a known bug.
Great game otherwise. :)
This has been fixed already, I guess you were playing on an old save ? Sorry about that, you're stuck for good now, you'll have to restart a new game with a fresh save game (or it may happen again). Sorry. :/

I can't figure out how to beat the rival colony, they have the same stats and numbers as my colony, and a fighting queen. Any suggestions?
Hi !
The answer is in special skills. One will help you make the difference.
I might nerf the big guy a bit in a next patch, though, I'm just waiting for more feedback on this level.

Been enjoying this game so far had to restart a couple times earlyer due to the saving issues.(not had this issue today) But my submagio died and my queen won't respawn them.Is this ment to happen ? because it still say's 0/2
Hello, no it's not ment to happen, your game is probably not up to date (or you're playing on an updated version with an old save file). This bug has been fixed several days ago.

the reason I don't want to go to another site is because I am loyal. you post a game to Kong then you get upset when your skillz cant hold their ground and you blame kongregate. then you promote another game site on kongregate an get upset about that too because nobody will leave kong because they are loyal. you sir are truly the definition of a ......

Wow, A lot of fun when the game worked... This game has so much potential. With that said, clearly the dev. is somehow unable to make the changes that nearly all other devs. can on Kong - and then repeatedly continues to blame it on Kong for not being able to fix said issues. Pretty frustrating given how fun the game could possibly be if it actually worked. I am currently getting the black screen and cannot play. I would have (and actually had) given it 4/5 or possibly 5 rating had the lag/loading issues as well as a few other fixes been made. The the depth and complexity of the game are really nice and remind me of the throwback sim games... but clearly the dev. is giving up and/or not able or willing to make said changes (based on their own "developer response" comments.) That's really too bad :(
Hello, I'm not giving up, and I'm still updating the game until it reaches a stable version, then I'll stop updating here. It is not normal that some players are still playing for the first time a version that is more than 24 hours old, and that they may randomly switch back to an older version.
That messes the game saves, and thus, breaks the game.
That makes me lose a lot of time that could have been spent for making the game better and adding content.
I did not have problems with flash games here, only HTML5, and I'm not the only one, just check the forums.
I do not have either any problem of this kind on any of the other portals where the game is uploaded.
So when I'm getting insulted, or when someone asks me what he can do to play the game, what should I answer him ? "Sorry I'm just incompetent " or "play the game on a site where HTML5 game files are handled properly because I have no power to fix these problems here" ?

after the latest update the game does not load past 10%-20%. it just hangs. I have tried using different browsers but the same thing occurs. remember back in the Nintendo days when you play a game for hours and forget to save and you lose all that progress, and you don't even feel like playing that game anymore? the same thing occurs when we play these idle games. we put a bunch of time into it and then its updated and" sorry we had to wipe our save game" or "oh sorry he game is broke now" or sorry but you cant play it on kongregate now". you draw your own conclusions about where im going with this.....

Won't load on Chrome .. I'm serious .. if you don't have the skills to build a game (even with a framework) don't do it !!! You're the first developer who makes me kind of angry. Each (non-semantic) update brings more bugs than features/fixes.
Well if you don't take the time to read my comments about problems from Kongregate, why did you took the time to complain ? I never asked you to play it anyway. If you want to complain write here instead: support@kongregate.com , I guess it will be more useful.

On OSX in the previous versions the preloader thingy (that grey cog with the number) at least was executed entirely .. and then I got a blank screen. Since 1.5 it gets stuck around 20% and stays that way for eternity. It is either the best idle game ever or just a huge step back in coding..
Hi. Looks like Kongregate is still messing with HTML5 file update (it looks like game files are not loaded). I guess you just have to wait that it fixes itself when their server cache will be cleared. You can also play the game somewhere else where it works normally (any other website where it has been uploaded).
Hello the game uses webstorage, so it depends on the OS and the browser sused. you should find the answer for you there: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9669184/how-is-html5-webstorage-data-physically-stored

My game got stuck in a garden map, and every time i double click the hole to come back underground, it just resets the map (like if it went underground and back instantly)
This is an old bug that has been fixed since days. I guess you continued a game on a save from a former version.
Sorry about that. This will not happen anymore now.
Yes, I'm just an hobbyist with no testing team, but some people offered their help for future games so I hope this will be better in the future. :)
But the main problem I had with this game is Kongregate not updating the game files or randomly switching back to old versions.
Very strange indeed. This has been reported to Kongregate, but this looks like a very old issue, already reported many times, so I don't think we will have this fixed for this game.

Do you know where the location for the save file is on a Windows 8 OS? After having reset my saved game, I've been encountering this bug where food would start floating on the screen randomly. I want to try manually deleting my save file.
The game uses webstorage for saving, so it does not only depends on the OS, but also on the browser used. You should find the answer for you here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9669184/how-is-html5-webstorage-data-physically-stored. But your problem may rather be related to the browser cache, as this game is in HTML5, rather than to the save file.
Hmm I have to check that, that's not impossible. This skill should only target enemy inside the cloud, so if you upgraded the cloud and that this one covers half the map, this skill may become annoying ? EDIT: You were right I'm fixing it with next build.
