Game does not load (Dropbox shows up and says "file not found")

The game crashes on save for me (using Google Chrome), making the game unplayable. Adobe Flash isn't giving me any options to increase the maximum storage, though apparently it's supposed to ask if an increased amount is required.

This game went from a 4-star rating to a 2-star rating because of the excruciatingly slow progress offline. This problem has been discussed in the forums since last year, but the dev has ignored them (even intervened to respond to someone insulting someone else, but didn't address this problem). I was offline for 8-10h and got ~1.4h's worth of ticks. To buy the next region I needed 22h of online progress (upgrading my power is no longer worth it compared to buying the region). Apparently I'm expected either to leave the game open for 22h, or wait 6 days offline -- except I have to come back online to spend the bonus ticks, since there are reports of a cap. Depending on how the cap works, I could end up having to wait for weeks to get enough money for this next region. The game is fun in the beginning - designing layouts is really cool - but this slow rate of progress takes the fun out of it.

-Strategy Analysis- Based on testing results from my Economy Analysis. [Measurements in ($/min, people to maintain)]. In the early game, I see only two main strategies: vegetables ($73, 2), or ($64, 1). An additional person is required to go to school in both strategies. I recommend trees to minimize the number of people required. In the late game, 10 pens of cows ($881, 1) give the most money per tile. Cooking the market animals also gives a lot of money (~$775, 3), and one can bake bread ($222, 1) as well. I believe the optimal strategy achieves maximum health asap, with as few people as possible. After that, optimal wealth is keeping the profit/person high. Once everything's upgraded, a single person can maintain all the cows without losing health. To get 10 pens of cows, just remember to keep the pens full when trying to expand to a new pen. Pigs and sheep aren't as profitable, but if you have the pens, are better than nothing. Experiment & have fun! =)

-Economy Analysis- In my calculations/tests, I found... Growth times (sec): Trees: 211 Veg: 94, 62.6 upgraded Grain: 69, 46 upgraded Cow: 100 Sheep: 88 Pig: 76 Animal grow time is consistent for 2-4 animals [5th waits for room]. Most actions: 7 sec Walking: 1 tile/sec, 1.25 upgraded Labour/school: 26 Market: 10-11 Bake bread (unupgraded), mill flour: 14 Length of day: 82 Eating cost: 1x/day, or $18.29/min with bread/vegetables (16.46 upgraded) Cooking spawned animals from pens gives ($/min) Cow: 90 Sheep: 81.82 Pig: 71.05 Labour profit for one person/min (with food expense) $5: -7 $8: 0 $15: 18 Strategy [* = no upgrades,G/B=grow/buy supplies] (people | tiles): profit (with food expense) Wood* (1|10): 64 Wood (1|10): 203 Vegetables* (2|10): 73 Vegetables (3|10): 607 Grain (3|10): 369 Flour B (1|1): 26 Flour G (5|10): 360 [3 windmills] Bread B (1|0): 222 Bread G (5|7): 472 [2 windmills] 10 Pens of Cows (1|10): 881 Butchery of market animals (3|2-4 pens): ~775

Maybe when you get into the game, it gets easier, but at the start I find myself with $1 salary, the inability to keep my energy consistently up (why doesn't my character sleep, anyway?). The 3$ drink? It means I have to score 2 goals every single game just to afford it. But then I can't ever afford, say, boots. This is very frustrating.

I very much enjoy this game, but there are a couple bugs that I am experiencing: maxed out spike-readiness does not prevent spike damage and adrenaline usually doesn't do anything (I think I saw it increase about 20 health at a rate of 1/sec, but nothing since, and I have upgraded it to max). Though these are non-essential, it'd be nice if they were fixed. Overall, however, I loved it :)

Too difficult to navigate and figure out what you're supposed to do. Often I had an idea, tried it, and it said "You can't do that", even though I was supposed to. 1/5.

1160 seconds, 110% :D [2nd time, and I didn't get "super ship" or "upgrade complete" achievements, but was close]. In my opinion, the game is a work of art! A very good game. Ironically, I disliked some of the upgrades (especially the graphics qualities).

This was not put together well. While playing Disputed Galaxy, I thought that the ability to play as a space station would be very fun, but this game is not fun. Should be closer to how it actually is in DG

I like this game! (5/5) I do understand the issues prev. commenters have noted, but once you figure out how it works you can use it to your advantage. The strategy I found best was: -Counter Attack formation -Generally, keep passing as you guide your teammates upwards -Either walk into the goal from the side, or throw the ball from a short distance. It goes right over the opponents half the time XD If you're having passing problems, try to only pass if you have a someone nearby, otherwise Throw it where you want. You have to be careful not to pass if it's not 200% obvious who the best person to pass to is (could be "closest"?) Preferred Statistics: Speed, Tackling, Touchness, Passing+Throwing, in that order. Passing and throwing are especially important in Division 1, at least if you use my strategy. Erixson's strategy is what I used for many games XD -- Until Division 1 (for me), which is when I changed to the strategy I outlined above.

I agree, health regenerating would be nice. I don't understand why the blue has such a slow regen speed, and it wasn't explained very well what it did. After losing the 1st time, I got the feeling that "What, I have to do that all over again?" That would take forever...

4:27:97.5, 20 deaths. More practice to get 3:20... and memorization... Cool game, though!

Really cool!

That was fun! XD Finally got 225 seconds. Definitely 5/5 :) Idk what the contra was supposed to be, I accidentally found that if I typed in the author's name + "a" it accepted it... sometimes XD

Found this after trying leonidas12's :) 985, 99, 99 Also, try negating one or both 99s XD
