Feedback: 1) solar system exploring costs should increase because of the amount of system already explored, not each time you come back to the galaxy. 2) elements should have different prices, according to rarity (make carbon more common and $1 the unit, and for example oxygen more rare and like $10) 3) also, price of elements could have a little variation overtime, prices dropping and rising (if carbon price is $1, it could change between $0.8 and $1.2 overtime) 4) above the amount of each element, add the current minning rate of each one per second. 5) if inside a solar system, same like 4, but for the minning rates in that system only 6) in the galaxy view, add those rates of 5 in the info pop up of each solar system. 7) general upgrades for your probes/bases/mechs so each one yields more mining per second (say, you upgrade your probes schematics, and all the probes you have are improved 5%) and to improve your exploration/unlock costs

Would like to see some representation of what is bought, would make sense to limit the amount of representation at a point.. But with Gastyz suggestion that I particularly like, upgrading the devices themselves would be great. Should try one of the popular idle games here on Kongregate to get some ideas (like how they give you the feeling of progression but yet, your still playing an idle game, such like that)
I like the idea and the galaxy map is pretty cool looking, needs more /game/ though. (Haven't rated since I figure you will add more with time :) )

love the idea! I only have one real piece of feedback so far, there are not enough things to explore for money to accrue as slowly as it does. it ends up feeling like you're watching a screen saver most of the time.

Game appears to be abandoned by dev and removed all functionality and added in an advertisement for an "upcoming" mobile and steam version of the same game.
i'm not mad about the adverts but why delete all functionality from the "beta" web version.

every time you visit the galaxy map the prices to unlock solar systems goes up... so buy the first one, then stay in it for as long as possible without going to the galaxy map even once, then once you have enough money saved up go out and buy the next one, rinse and repeat...
