Under rating threshold (show) Instead of submitting MY pros and cons, I'm gonna summarize the last 5 comments and say what I feel about them: 1: "Too easy to lose a lot of progress" I feel like this is a valid take, some of the wording is very ambiguous. 2: "Very hands on" This is more of a preference, but it can be more active than some other idle games. 3: "Can move into a town I'm already in" LOL. 4: "(ad homonym) Little to no interaction, too much waiting, no free respecs, can't reset your save, lacks polish(ad homonym)" This game does start very slow, but gets faster after the first painting. It is a little annoying to play a bad build, but learning what not to do is a key part of this game. I do agree that this would benefit from a full reset. OK buddy, how about you make an idle game, and get back to me on that. 5: "Too boring" Again, this is a preference, but (again) the game gets faster after the first painting.

Under rating threshold (show) this is a great example of a dev thinking they can make a quick buck with a sub-par idle game. There is little to no interaction, just a lot of waiting, and the fact you have to pay for respecs (no free ones or nothing), and can't even reset your save, means you are just stuck with a bad build. it lacks polish, and seeing as this is from 2018 and still hasn't gotten better, means this person didn't give any poops about the game.

Under rating threshold (show) It is a little too easy to lose everything because of not fully understanding the mechanics. Knocked myself back to step one. I'm over the game. shame I didn't get to far.

Under rating threshold (show) This game is insanely frustrating. I was trying to farm enough fame and cash to get the Moscow visa, then reset because things were dragging only to find out that the fame was knocked down to 10k, the first time it netted my fame down, made me want to break something. I'm done. Please don't allow this amateur game to get badges.

Under rating threshold (show) Absolutely awful balance wise. This is not really an idlegame, you need to be stupidly active all the time until youve gotten some minor fame and can get painting become automatic. Only for paintings to mean nothing. Then its your school and students that gives you all your money to get your next museums for more fame which is the real gate. Ontop of that are the constant refreshes where your fame and all upgrades are removed PLUS charging you for respec. The best strat towards the middle/end is to simply stop painting until your students gives you enough money to buy the museum slots. You need hundreds of thousands of fame and the only way to get it is to not paint but let your museums make it for you. So stupid.

Under rating threshold (show) Can't get the game to show up. I just get a gray area instead of the game. No ad, no pictures, no buttons or links to click. Just gray. Everything around it appears. I can see the side bar, for chat, game and high scores. There is a black box around everything, and I can see the Cinematic, Instructions, Rate, Favorite and Playlist links above, the comments here and all that. But the game area is just .... not there. Anyone else having this issue?

Under rating threshold (show) Alright, after years of not playing this game and coming back I gotta lower my score from 5 to 4 because holy crap does it take a long time to generate fame when you move cities. It's painful to get back up to over 100000.

Under rating threshold (show) so "double pens" talent does not actually give you two pens for each pen you buy, it literally doubles your current amount of pens without even accounting for talent milestones and ramps up their cost, i took it hoping to get good scaling lategame, as i saw that respecs were paid and the game screwed me over because i went for the pen path. do not take.

Under rating threshold (show) Just make autobuy start at the bottom of the list and work it's way up. Buy the highest upgrade available first before wasting everything on ink pens. Please. The stupidity is painful.

Under rating threshold (show) An easy fix would be to have Autobuy not take anything higher than 25 or 20. You could let us set a limit ourselves.

Under rating threshold (show) Can we get an upgrade called Smart Autobuy so it buys 5 of a higher level item like gradient or bucket when I can afford them and have 0 of them instead of buying 5 more pens when I have 70 of them already. Autobuy is throwing money away.

Under rating threshold (show) At the point I'm at, it's just a fame grind in orther to get visas. once I get the school, i justlet them work their asses out until they can buy a new museum, and it's basically just letting the game run a few days until the fame is at that point. Have been at it for a few weeks and the student limit hasn't increaed yet. Am I missing something Mr Developer?
