The cost of expansion upgrades would be appreciated so I don't waste 5-15 minutes wondering if it's attainable or I should just keep hitting the expansion button every 5-10 seconds.

To those requesting offline progress, at a certain point the only thing that seems to matter is electricity. The exponential scale also tends to push offline progress to null within even a few hours of offline progress.

So reading your reply, we have different ideas on active play. I consider active play in an idle game as being 1-5 minutes to obtain a milestone or goal. Most idle games will have a button to push every 1-5 minutes for the first few hours. There may be advantages to waiting 5-10 minutes depending on the game. You quickly reach 10-20 minutes between pushing a single button. I went to sleep, came back and pushed about 10 buttons and went up to hours between supercooks. From a player perspective, most people seem to be pushing you to look at the income/cook cost increase curves. Cook cost grows excessively fast compared to income. Players would generally consider a game to be more fulfilling to push a button twice as often, even if it only gave 80-90% of the same progress.

As many others seem to have commented, early game progress slows to a crawl within an hour of starting the game. Do you honestly expect players to wait 10 minutes for a Supercook? Coupled with pure RNG, I can easily wait 10 minutes to push a button for no reward. I get this is an idle game with an expected play time of a week. But most players are the most active within the first 1-3 hours. Pushing into a massive grind seems unproductive, and more importantly not fun.

LOUD - VERY LOUD music at the start with NO way to turn it off. I want to watch a movie on the side while playing this - and can't.

Raising EP is easily the most boring aspect of the game. It's just an arbitrary time sink that makes players stop and question if they want to continue playing the game.

For reference - last night I could purchase Better tiers 80 after about 30 minutes of a run. Today, after having twice the number of medals, I can only purchase Better Tiers 57 after 30 minutes. Significant slowdown of all aspects of the prestige 1 gameplay

You appear to have increased the cost of Tier upgrades - this is going to drastically slow down beginning players

Fastest prestige progression does not actually appear to be speed. You want 2-3 damage, and then drop down the health tree. While it seems screwy, you'll understand once you pick up a single point in block. Essentially most of your early enemies can no longer hurt you and you fight non-stop until you max speed within the run.

Forgot. Goal 2 should be kill the vampires

Goal 1: 6 dmg to kill snakes efficiently. Goal 2: 110 speed. Goal 3: Increase dmg without sacrificing other stats. Goal 4: Random other stats. Goal 5: Kill bosses - increase damage as needed. Repeat

The prestige button seems to be hidden or not working. I was clearing out things after killing the last boss and now I have no option to prestige, or it's simply not visible.

Idle thought for an idle game. I know you're having issues with changing your various currencies into currency format. I'm wondering if other games simply defined all currency variables as the same variable type, and then everything else was just tracking and display tricks? (pp as cash currency - but build your display around the pp field so it's not obvious that it's a cash value?

Ultra prestige is not working no matter how I double click. Currently hanging out at level 101 as the numbers just get silly. An interesting PP bug is that sitting on one level for a long time and then fast forwarding to max level. It gives you a massive amount of PP and you just have to adjust backwards to a safe zone.

Going offline seems to remove the bonuses from Spectral Servants. Choosing Necromancy and Spectral Servants as your first to Gates essentially creates a train wreck of ever escalating upgrades and cash. Each gate takes around 5 or less minutes, and I can reach 'o' cash values within a few gate selections.

There is an upgrade path that makes the game trivial. First 3 resets taking a bit of time, but then you're resetting every 5 minutes, with escalating cash. Sadly there's nothing to spend it on.

Also, mouse scroll +/- doesn't seem to work. Using firebox browser.

Can't see achievements that are incomplete or complete. Would be useful to know what some of my goals are. For example I found out that destroying the first ship was apparently a pretty nice bonus. Would have modified my upgrades and game play for it.

Having advanced further, I find that friends caps at 100k. You are unable to purchase friends, buying hobbies serves no purpose (55-60). The only element of the game left to play is competition - at a rate of one attempt or advancement every 9-10 minutes. Eventually this looks like it will go down to 5 minutes. That's still a very long wait period in which there is nothing else to do within the game. My HP is at e11 or e12 - and ultimate requires 16.

So it appears that you have staggered upgrades that invalidates the previous efforts. Very early on it becomes useless to buy additional friends, and an autoclicker is also pointless. Purchasing further hobbies becomes an exercise in diminishing returns. When doing hobbies - go 100% into peeing at first. This reduces the massive time to upgrade points. For the dev: Max 10 TP points kind of sucks. That means you have to check the game once every 100 minutes - given that most people sleep 6-8 hours....
