very interesting prototype of a game, i can see many ways it could become a full game (i'd love it if there were more stories, the one in the game is pretty fun so it could be nice to have a variety of texts across different genres)
a few things to note that i hope get corrected if the game keeps being developed:
- a few typos/weird things going on in the text (especially the I'11 instead of I'll at one point)
- some balance issues (at some point you have unlocked every upgrade but you're still only quarterway done with the Time and Prestige upgrades so you can't really get the satisfaction of fully upgrading everything (except by farming a lot I guess but by that point I had finished the story)
- the story has a racial slur in it could be good to have a way for people to not get exposed to it without warning
- the controls are pretty unintuitive, especially in the skill tree (i should be able to drag it around with the mouse instead of whatever is going on there)
anyway apart from that i had a lot of fun and i'm really looking forward to what this game has to offer!
Had a great time with this, can't wait to see how it evolves. Couple of notes:
1. Seems like you're getting your content public domain, but I was prompted at one point to type a racial slur starting with N. Would be a good idea to apply some kind of content filtering.
2. Could be good to have an option to switch to another random content source, if the content you're typing is interesting, would add to the fun.
3. Would have liked scientific notation as the numbers get larger so I can see which upgrades I'm close to after a run.
for point one, i think it might have meant something different but it ended in egg, rock, or stone
What a genius concept! Would pay good money to play this game on Steam, says I.
nice concept, I will definitely develop something like this for my child when he is ready to type.
So I've played this game excessively for the last few.. hours? I think. And I've come to a passage where you need to type something that I think might be a typo. I need to type '11 instead of 'll and of course the game doesn't accept the "1". Any workaround? I somehow enjoyed the story aswell. ;D Never noticed how comfy it might be to type the story you are reading at the same time. I always read to fast, so it slows me down :)
