explaining how to use it

#

idk

unborn finch
#

that is a good point let me add a Explanation sheet

#

alright added a explanation to the top, do you think you could add it to the channel? i dont have the authorization to do that unfortunatly

foggy thorn
#

I would but I don't want to move the roles thing

unborn finch
#

understood

#

might be a good idea to have the roles assigned to their own channel or something similar

foggy thorn
#

also you lost the game

unborn finch
#

what game?

strong ore
#

THE game

unborn finch
#

Never heard of it, must not be that popular then

foggy thorn
unborn finch
#

Cant lose something i never started in the first place

foggy thorn
#

you don't choose to start the game

lofty badger
#

By the original rules of "The Game" when you learn the rules of the game, you are hereby playing "The Game"

#

God it's been 6 years

foggy thorn
#

and by learning that you are playing the game, you lose the game

lofty badger
#

Why does opera have discord

#

wtf

untold cairn
#

How many times has everyone ascended / rebirthed? How long have you been playing, and how far are you in the game? I'm always struggling wether I should either rebirth or ascend πŸ˜…

true dirge
#

1 rebirth/ascend per zone & ice cream

golden ivy
#

ascend

#

you get more bp if you have ap

true dirge
#

Ill just rebirth directly because it’s a bitch to level everything twice

golden ivy
#

imagine not using coupons to get ap

golden ivy
#

Right?

#

y'all ever come up with cheesy pick up lines with your friend?

#

no?

#

just me?

#

k

molten rose
#

Imagine using every coupon just to not ascend, so You did only one ascend and you clear Lunar Isle already, and You got another one and You can just grab another 500kAP 4133kAP

golden ivy
#

bruh

#

you should be ascending for starting lvls

#

Oh fuck all of you

#

I hadn't thought of "The game" in like a year

#

it's a dumb meme and @foggy thorn shouldn't continue it

#

Ban him

#

For life

#

Or I sue

strong ore
#

A "meme"

#

That's what losers call it

molten rose
#

you should be ascending for starting lvls
@golden ivy What do You mean? D:

golden ivy
#

you get starting lvls when you ascend

#

bonus starting lvls

molten rose
#

πŸ€”
B-but grinding... it cant be that important in early game

golden ivy
#

it is :)

#

you get way more lvls

molten rose
#

I guess I will just spend last one day on getting tomatoes to push my AP from next ascend to 5m

#

and I will just reset >:C

golden ivy
#

#

the game

molten rose
#

I mean ascend*

golden ivy

#

#

Is it me

fleet ivy
#

Looks fine

granite hamlet
#

Seems a bit bright to me

fleet ivy
#

Maybe you're just having a good day so everything is brighter

granite hamlet
#

hmmm

#

I made quiche

#

I lost my pen and found it a few hours later

#

I had a little bit of cake

#

Ate pizza for dinner

#

Dead cells got an update

#

What else happend today?

#

Hmm

kind rover
#

The icon is bright because it was the most successful image out of the 4 variations of it lava made for the app. The key is also smoothed out and not pixelated.

granite hamlet
#

I remember that

#

Sorta

#

Its

#

Smoothed?

#

Neat

kind rover
#

Hard for me to explain it right. But it's not a series of noticeable pixels, the border of the key and keymaster are the only blatant pixel things.

granite hamlet
#

The icon is flashing

#

Is it animated

#

Or is the darkend pixels of my broken tablet affecting it

patent tinsel
#

broken tablet

granite hamlet
#

Well i mean

#

Not entirly

#

In a sense

#

It is technically broken

#

But eventually

#

The darkness will encase the entire screen

#

Luckily heat can prevent this

#

So glad its WINTER

#

AND ITS SO COLD HERE

#

Fun fact

#

Boosters can round

#

Mutators as well

Good morning good folk

Hiyo static

timid spire
#

oh well

#

ty

honest lake
#

@timid spire @golden ivy Can you just get an android emulator and sign in with your google apps account and get the save that way?

fleet ivy
#

The saves for each version aren't compatible

#

Also gl getting your save from android

golden ivy
#

@honest lake probably

#

didn't think of that

high zenith
#

So I just rebirthed with ice cream 2 and everything was normal until I got to purgatory and now I have no idle attack anybody had this problem or know how to fix it?

severe summit
#

@high zenith Purgatory has an innate attack speed debuff. You'll need to up it more to compensate.

high zenith
#

Thank you

severe summit
#

Also, join us over in #_ for anything else!

#

Whoops, you're there already. Nevermind! Haha

errant forge

Why do you even rebirth, BP coupons is where it's at

#

Legend has it that the announcement may contain some of Lava's greatest musical talents. Symphonies of monumental elegance to trance your ears into a metaphorical heaven of delight. Or maybe I'm just pulling shit out of my ass hahaha

worldly lichen
#

Having music in idle skilling is impossible I'm pretty sure

kind rover
#

Stencyl has sound support iirc. Maybe it's a looping background sound it takes issue with? File type or size? Idk.

worldly lichen
#

I can't imagine Lava adding music hahaha
But that's really good if he actually try to add music

kind rover
#

I doubt it I was just reaching up my own ass for another fancy shitpost

worldly lichen
#

Lol he will never add music because if he do he will not be able to troll player anymore

snow hedge
#

not having found the mute button by now
πŸ˜‚

long glen
#

There is music in idle skilling but it's muted by default (as it should be), and Lava always forgets to add the settings page button so we can access sound stuff, notation, and manual cloudsave.

golden ivy
#

nice meme

#

Wouldn’t be surprised tbh

feral snow
#

I am this close to stabbing somebody

Because of the absolute dumpsterfire that is called boosters

tilting your screen when paachinoballing makes you balls go further due gravity

Just started playing the game... I am... overwhelmed. πŸ˜†

severe summit

You have so much to discover! Exciting! happy

waxen lintel
#

I just can't believe how much content there is, haha

golden ivy
#

Yes

severe summit
#

It's honestly great. And there's a lot of flavor in it too.

golden ivy
#

And good luck

waxen lintel
#

Yea, I'm wildly impressed.

golden ivy
#

thats just the beginning

severe summit

But otherwise, enjoy the ride.

#

and my boostio still shows that my highest is only 2.5k

#

i could go and put a toothpick under my big toes nail and kick a wall and it would hurt less x)

kind rover
#

Wow, I just read the news and there are some serious allegations against the founder of Velvet Void Studios. Apparently he's being sent to house arrest until his company completes a legal promise to release a major update. This is nuts!

unborn finch
#

so what is everyone up to?

wary vessel
#

lol just did ice creams 5 and 6 on consecutive rebirths

#

that felt nice

strong ore
#

I'm up to the stars

#

It's pretty crazy that the founder of Velvet Void Studios would go that far..

smoky juniper
#

so what is everyone up to?
@unborn finch well I’m up to nothing beyond drinking large quantities of alcohol. What are you up to?

unborn finch
#

surfing reddit while my plants grow because of the bug that wont allow proper Away gain

#

every 21 minute ish i go and collect my crusades rewards in a hope that i get the card im looking for so i can move onto the next boss

#

want to atleast have the 2 final pots done so i can ascend and finish some mastery tasks

golden ivy
#

After resetting a hyper coupon 30 times i finally got a fuckin platypus

topaz solar
#

So apparently when you go past 100 daily star card limit, the text appears offscreen

unborn finch
#

that has not happend to me yet @topaz solar

#

i got something like 170 per day so im well above that

#

or do you mean the purgatory etc? if so then yea i cant see any numbers what so ever and have to guess

dry barn
#

Huh.. I dont seem to have any pet cards, odd

unborn finch
#

there are no pet cards exept event cards

foggy thorn
#

there's 2 but they are absolute garbage

dry barn
#

Guess I'll link this new deck link to boss looting then

unborn finch
#

and i have no fucking clue how to get those

foggy thorn
#

from the autumn event, which was uh some time ago or from 6* card packs

unborn finch
#

im surprised you guys dont re run the events

golden ivy
#

#

remove the pinned message

lone pollen
#

How long did it take to save up 180 billion rebirth points for hyper bricks in the construction tab?

#

I'm only getting like 240 right before I hit a wall per rebirth

#

240mil*

paper jay
#

idk

tropic ruin
#

Just overflow your perk points about 50 times and upgrade the infinite perk for rebirth

lone pollen
#

Hmmmmm

#

At what point does the perk points start to overflow?

kind rover
#

It's visual but 2.1b

lone pollen
#

I dont even want to ask how to get 2.1b perk points lol

kind rover
#

There are quite a few places to boost points but it's easiest to start with cards. Should be like a couple of them.

reef sinew
#

People are so far in the game and im at day 285 and still got to beat more than half of the first biome of the purgatory..

vital heart
#

if you play actively you can get there in like a month

tropic ruin
#

It helps that my asention perk for extra perk points is at 5000%

vital heart
#

god damn i have it at like 3k

reef sinew
#

oh god

tropic ruin
#

And since Tubby Worm, Chewed, and Ruler all increase perk points

#

I can overflow in like 50 levels

reef sinew
#

i feel so bad

vital heart
#

and some boss or raid card

reef sinew
#

πŸ˜‚

tropic ruin
#

And my Chain Level is capped

vital heart
#

tbh i have all these too and i can't overflow

#

unless all the cards are multiplicative

#

cuz i've only ever used one or two at once

tropic ruin
#

I think there might be some Pet Tanks that increase them

vital heart
#

oh fair

#

well my potion card bonus is fairly low

reef sinew
#

What do you guys reckon, should i rebirth now or wait till i get the infinite perk point thing

#

Like, the last section of the perk tree

vital heart
#

you only need like 3m total bp to max out the perk tree so go ahead

tropic ruin
#

The perk tree in rebirth?

reef sinew
#

nono

#

The perk point tree

tropic ruin
#

Oh you cant get that for a LONG time

reef sinew
#

How long exactly?

tropic ruin
#

Thats endgame stuff

#

Your in like early midgame

vital heart
#

wait so i'm in the endgame? god damn

tropic ruin
#

Well it depends on your ice cream

vital heart
#

man i've completed ice creams last year or something

reef sinew
#

So... i can either get 200k AP, or 500 BP.

tropic ruin
#

True Endgame is stuff like Infinite Damage, TH63, All Pets, etc

vital heart
#

ah then i'm ways off of the endgame

reef sinew
#

I mean you are farther to it than me

tropic ruin
#

Whats your damage at A Sea?

reef sinew
#

3223QQ

#

nevermind im blind

#

Wait no Valor is active rn

#

Alright yea 3223QQ

tropic ruin
#

So about 3 Crystal Damage

vapid mesa
#

Have you rebirth yet?

reef sinew
#

Once

tropic ruin
#

I think you could push to Bog

reef sinew
#

The Question is, should i or use BP now, since im at the start of the BP tree

tropic ruin
#

Dont rebirth now

reef sinew
#

Alright

#

Im currently at Meat Bloque 3

tropic ruin
#

Obviously you're still pretty weak but you'll need to wait to rebirth to gain as much power as possible

reef sinew
#

Nvm im at Moisturize

#

I completed the hard contract so far..

#

Easy and Medium are halfway done..

tropic ruin
#

Do you have any damage boosting cards ewuipped

reef sinew
#

Pincermen

#

5 Star

#

King Z 5

tropic ruin
#

You should get Keymaster P

reef sinew
#

I have him

tropic ruin
#

Skaul

reef sinew
#

I have him too

tropic ruin
#

Holy Relic

reef sinew
#

yes

tropic ruin
#

Do you have them all equiped

reef sinew
#

now i do

#

Nooow i gotta level em

tropic ruin
#

Go to Grasslands to get cards

reef sinew
#

i mean i could ascend to raise the card limit to ridicolous levels..

#

but at the same time i wanna reach bog..

tropic ruin
#

Dont

reef sinew
#

Alright then

tropic ruin
#

How many card do you have

reef sinew
#

All from Grasslands up to dungeon...

#

i have a few raid bosses..

#

Quite a few crusade cards..

tropic ruin
#

No

#

I meant colored ones

reef sinew
#

Colored in Green Blue purple or orange?

tropic ruin
#

Yes

#

And grey

reef sinew
#

That i have currently equipped?

tropic ruin
#

NO JUST LOOK AT THE TOP RIGHT OF THE SCREEN

vital heart
#

lmao

reef sinew
#

I see inventory and?

vital heart
#

then just say "star cards"

tropic ruin
#

Sigh i give up

reef sinew
#

i don't have a clue on what you mean all i see is my cards

vital heart
#

he means the cards you upgrade cards with

#

star cards

tropic ruin
#

On the cards screen look at the top right of the screen

reef sinew
#

oh..

#

6 green ones right now..

#

a blue one

#

and 2 orange ones.

tropic ruin
#

How many greys

reef sinew
#

none

vital heart
#

rip

tropic ruin
#

Ouch

vital heart
#

greys are the most important

tropic ruin
#

You should probably go to grasslands and get some more

reef sinew
#

Im currently trying to get some

tropic ruin
#

You'll need at least 26 greys to get both cards to level 3

#

And 2 more greens

#

And 1 blue

reef sinew
#

You mean Skaul, Key and Relic?

#

Key is at level 3 right now, Skaul at 2 and relic still at 1

tropic ruin
#

Skaul and Relic are the only ones that matter

#

Idle Damage is your biggest friend

reef sinew
#

Well the game is called Idle Skilling i'd imagine idling in general would be your best friend

tropic ruin
#

Well i mean that I.D does so much more damage than your skills late into the game its not funny

reef sinew
#

So...

#

Frites

tropic ruin
#

They're like fries

reef sinew
#

fries ye

tropic ruin
#

But they're crispy like a potato chip

reef sinew
#

What about Entertainer Y btw

tropic ruin
#

I dont have hik

reef sinew
#

Or will he be weaker than Skaul at level 5 card

tropic ruin
#

Him

#

I think he should be stronger

reef sinew
#

I have him at level 3 and its 80% base damage.

tropic ruin
#

Whats skaul at

#

At level 2

reef sinew
#

20%

tropic ruin
#

Entertainer is stronger then

#

Upgrade the πŸ…±οΈ uck out of it

reef sinew
#

What should i switch the deck to btw?

#

All Combat?

#

I have it on there rn

tropic ruin
#

Yes

reef sinew
#

And i have 5953QQ now

woven apex

Yes

near wharf
#

#

how is it confusing lol

golden ivy
near wharf
#

yea

#

not gameplay wise

golden ivy
#

i took this to mean the alpha was gonna be announced then

near wharf
#

more like user-facing kinda stuff, banners etc

golden ivy
#

yeah sure

#

just got confused for a moment

woven apex
#

Lava are you gonna make a new video showing off the new content like you used to

near wharf
#

i want to do an IRL video but i still havent fully considered the possible ramifications of it

#

or if anyone would even care lol

true dirge
#

When i see lava i upvote

near wharf
#

im not really a personality streamer YET so i think people really care just about the game

woven apex
#

#notificationsquad

unborn finch
#

@near wharf with the new update will there be new deck slots?

#

i kinda ran out

near wharf
#

hey did you ask this last time

woven apex
#

Lavavlog #2747

unborn finch
#

nope

near wharf
#

i swear someone asks me that every time lol

#

2747 vlogs, all taking place in my room

woven apex
#

"yo guys, today I did coding and art. Bye"

near wharf
#

thats kinda sad tbh

#

idk what other poeple ahve gotten up to but my life this year has just been "i draw and code bye"

woven apex
#

As long as you enjoy it

near wharf
#

yea im still getting there lol

#

one day ill embrace that perspective fully

true dirge
#

Quite surprising thst the art is pretty good

near wharf
#

but still a bit comparison focused

woven apex
#

It also depends on phrasing

#

Lol

#

Great idea, promoting while the dev is around

#

10/10

true dirge
#

What’s that though

near wharf
#

i feel like that um

#

that one meme where its a face in one frame of the comic

#

and in the next frame its the same face with a slight frown

#

i drew a cool snake the other day

woven apex
#

I draw and code is different than I create content for a large community of fans to enjoy

near wharf
#

want to see it?

woven apex
#

Yes

Yes

true dirge
#

Yes

near wharf
#

i wish i had it finished in april

true dirge
#

#

You are gay. I'm so proud of you for coming out

near wharf
#

imagine if like

#

that was it

still lodge
#

This is just too funnyπŸ˜‚

near wharf
#

spent all my time drawing up the courage hahaha

still lodge
#

THIS is the peak of discord right here

long glen
#

Also, protip for social interactions: most people's lives can be summed up as "work, gossip, sleep". The trick is to make mountains out of molehills, then you'll seem like a functioning human being.

true dirge
#

That sounds like a potential pun in the game omg

unborn finch
#

if you did then i would be happy for you, even IF it was a bit off-topic but then again this IS discord

near wharf
#

i have a feeling i have been making a molehill out of a mountain with the update

#

i hope that to be the case but we will all see

#

i did show it to my friend today he said it was cool

still lodge
#

I might break my phone with such a pun@true dirge

true dirge
#

That sounds like a nipple

#

Molehill on a mountain

woven apex
#

How big is this update compared to the game right now?

#

Like content wise

true dirge
#

I’ll take it

still lodge
#

Noice

near wharf
#

um

#

its

#

well i mean its like ive spent almost 7 months now?

#

true dirge
#

He meant game file size

woven apex
#

Damn

#

No I meant

near wharf
#

oh um

woven apex
#

Content

unborn finch
#

@woven apex im shocked its rude to ask a Dev how big his "update" is

near wharf
#

yea i thought he meant content too

woven apex
#

But that's okay too

near wharf
#

my update is very small actually

woven apex
#

How big is ur update😩

near wharf
#

apparently the average update has 9 months of content

#

when the content is fully extended with DLC

still lodge
#

Hey at least we're getting something right? Unlike most games that is

true dirge
#

So afterlife?

woven apex
#

Death

near wharf
#

exactly

unborn finch
#

yea im still waiting for reality to hit antimatter dimensions

near wharf
#

for what to what

#

is that an update name

unborn finch
#

yep

woven apex
#

If there is no new Bob in the update we riot

unborn finch
#

the devs are on the ball with updates but it has been a freaking LONG time with no info about the new content patch

near wharf
#

yea therell be bob somewhere

true dirge
#

Afterlife bob

#

Vote for new bob name

near wharf
#

they have multiple devs?

unborn finch
#

single guy

obsidian sapphire
#

lava, how many bobs are there in the game?

unborn finch
#

well 1 guy for pc one for mobile

woven apex
#

they have multiple devs?
Pathetic

true dirge
#

If there’s bobs, will there be vagenes?

long glen
#

If your content/update-time ratio ever makes you feel inadequate, just take a look at Kittens Game.

near wharf
#

is it all still numbers and words

#

no i dont think i will hahaha

#

i remember seeing it once and it was like looking at a dictionary

#

my ape brain no like words

woven apex
#

Apes together strong

near wharf
#

these guys out there studying the thesaurus while i was playing with popup books

true dirge
#

The lava character in game said the most shit tho

woven apex
#

Popup books are more fun tho

unborn finch
#

then you wont like antimatter dimensions, the art to text is 0:1

Now that u have so many options

And there is a mobile/incremental game called BlipBlop which was announced at E3

but as i said there is a ton out there so its hard to get noticed

near wharf
#

ew ugh

woven apex
#

Here a ss

near wharf
#

its just another Text Idle

woven apex
#

It's really boring

near wharf
#

this genre gonna be out the window if people keep doing this

#

this was announced at e3?

woven apex
#

Yep

unborn finch
#

honestly if it were not for the humor i would not play antimatter dimension, its rather dry but it has funny news in the news ticker

near wharf
#

whoops that was meant to be more

woven apex
#

unborn finch
#

was that a frog?

long glen
#

Idle games at E3. :cringe:

near wharf
#

i mean its not idle games cringe thats fine

#

its just that kind of idle game

#

like i remember seeing um

woven apex
#

90% of mobile games rn suck

near wharf
#

champions of something or something idle at pax

#

and that seemed like at least a game

woven apex
#

Especially shit made by companies like VooDoo

long glen
#

90% of everything is shit.

near wharf
#

there are some alarming stats about voodoo and ketchapp

#

something like 30% of all mobile game downloads come from those 2

woven apex
#

They bring out the same game with new art everytimd

near wharf
#

eh idk

#

i dont think 90% of games on steam are shit

woven apex
#

With an absolute shit ton of ads and iap

unborn finch
#

jesus just looked up voodoo they are a shovelware dev

near wharf
#

most are very unique and are at least filled with effort

woven apex
#

Steam is pretty okay

near wharf
#

at least the ones that get more than 5 sales

#

voodoo is huge though i feel like theyre worth a few billion at this point

unborn finch
long glen
#

Steam has a barrier of entry though. That $100 publishing fee goes a long way.

unborn finch
#

this is antimatter dimensions

obsidian sapphire
#

the difference between bad mobile games and bad steam games is that no one plays the bad steam games

unborn finch
#

art dry but it has some deep depths when it comes to its hilariously simple mechanics

near wharf
#

i genuinely wouldnt know if u didnt tell me i swear that looks like so many other idle games

#

how are these different than like, swarm sim

#

i remember that being the first ? text idle game that kinda opened up the genre

woven apex
#

At the core they are all the same

near wharf
#

i just will never understand the big numbers

unborn finch
#

never played swarm swim but it has a endgame skill tree that changes how the game works buffing either active idle or a medium of the two

near wharf
#

i reemember playing one for like 10 minutes

#

and i logged in the next day and it was like "youre now at level 4e77!"

unborn finch
#

other than that it also has challenges that unlocks functions like auto buyers

near wharf
#

i think the thing i dont understand about the text based ones is like

#

they remind me of the um

#

end game for Tap Titans

unborn finch
#

as well as achivements that gives rewards depending on its difficulty

near wharf
#

where you just fight Monster A, Monster B, Monster C etc etc

#

and get like 3.56aa cash, then 3.56ab cash, then ac, ad, etc

#

and its like im just watching the game teach me the alphabet at this point

#

i guess if theyre mixing it up with lots of systems its good

woven apex
#

What else could you really do as a developer?

unborn finch
#

oh well the game has multiple "currencies" that you gather and each one unlocks a more complex interaction

woven apex
#

Making up words only goes so far

near wharf
#

well i mean art

#

thats kinda the point thats why i do it lol

#

im just concerned that theres nowhere for this stuff to go if its all just text forever

unborn finch
#

give me a sec to get a screen grab of my offline gain screen

woven apex
#

I do kinda feel like the backgrounds are underappreciated

#

In Idle Skilling btw

#

I ignored them for several months until I really noticed the detail

near wharf
#

i feel like people...

#

its not underappreciate per se

#

but like them not noticing is the point

#

like you may go "eh yea backgroudns are kinda nice i guess"

#

but if i show u this

near wharf
#

you go "holy shit yea backgrounds are GREAT" b

#

because that just looks like crap

true dirge
#

Haha

#

Hard truths

near wharf
#

yea coolbond like thats the part i dont get

#

like to me theyre all the same

obsidian sapphire
#

i love the cash art in idle skilling, especially cool cash

near wharf
#

i do like the um

#

skill tree

#

kinda

#

in that one at least they did lay it out nicely and theres more than just text

obsidian sapphire
#

i thinks its way better than just switching from ab to ac imo

near wharf
#

yea it was the best i could do

woven apex
#

Lava, what is your like drawing process?

near wharf
#

i never inteded for things to go beyond like QQ

unborn finch
#

here is a snapshot of the skill tree

near wharf
#

i still see that as like homework though

#

like that looks like the stuff i had to do in a business class i took for requirements

#

but personal tastes are what they are theres nothing inherently wrong with liking it

#

it does lend for much more expansiveness in the actual systems

#

since you dont get hampered down by having to draw things out

unborn finch
#

oh i understand its bareboness is not for everyone but there is a lot of humor in it especially in the news ticker

near wharf
#

how does the news ticker work

#

does it ever repeat itself?

unborn finch
#

yep

near wharf
#

like do you just read it like i dont really get why people like it

unborn finch
#

but there is like 2k different joke news so its rare

near wharf
#

like i understand looking at it a few times but like

#

do people just sit there for 30 minutes and read it?

woven apex
#

You can suggest news in their discord

near wharf
#

or is it like always in the screen so you can watch it as you play?

woven apex
#

I used to read it but I turned it off

unborn finch
#

its always on the screen unless you deselect it

#

there is also a achivement for click on the header when it reads something like dont click here or something similar

near wharf
#

what is the monetization like in it

unborn finch
#

cheap as fuck

near wharf
#

if you tell me they have a $99.99 im gonna do the meme with the frown face

woven apex
#

The only thing I used was watching an ad for extra production for several hours

near wharf
#

yea understandable

obsidian sapphire
#

idk about that game but for another game(non idle), superhot, there was a group text channel with different conversations, i was there for maybe 30 min and would happily sit there longer if there was more content

unborn finch
#

i bought the permanent ads bonus

woven apex
#

Those are the only ads the game ever gave me

near wharf
#

sorry, group text channel?

#

like within the game? or actual other peopel

#

permanent ads??

woven apex
near wharf
#

that sounds like a thing youd purchase to not have

woven apex
#

The bonus you get from ads

#

Without watching the ads

near wharf
#

ohhh

#

permanent "ads bonus"

#

not

#

"permanent ads" bonus

#

loooool

tropic ruin
#

It sounds like something someone pays you to add

obsidian sapphire
#

so like made up people talk to each other with pre written dialogues

unborn finch
near wharf
#

yea i get that more than the ticker

#

wait wait, the max?

#

you cant buy more?

tropic ruin
#

also i need alpha tester back

unborn finch
#

oh sorry the biggest option

near wharf
#

ah

#

honestly sad how many poeple have $50 and $100 options

#

i remember talking to someone about it cuz i was gonna do it

unborn finch
#

yea but there is no single thing you can buy that will make a dent in it

tropic ruin
#

I dont like how Egg Inc has an almost mandatory $10 IAP

near wharf
#

but they mentioned how lots of the purchases of those prices come from little kids

woven apex
#

50 dollars is fair for a game, not for an iap

near wharf
#

and i was like yea i cant do that to people

tropic ruin
#

Its possible to play without it but its not fun

unborn finch
#

60STD is the most expesive it will get

near wharf
#

ouch $10 IAP for the egg game

unborn finch
#

jesus

near wharf
#

see like ill give it to the text idles

#

at least they have spawling systems out the wazoo

woven apex
#

What does it give Zack?

near wharf
#

i feel like egg game doesnt

#

and the art is just 3d models of basic stuff

obsidian sapphire
#

big respect for making every upgrade available to f2p players in idle skilling

tropic ruin
#

5X longer away cap

#

The base max is 6 hours..

woven apex
#

Oh that

near wharf
#

big respect to people who bought stuff in such a way to allow me to continue making the game f2p accessable more like

woven apex
#

I hated that

tropic ruin
#

And 5 active boost caps

near wharf
#

if people didnt buy stuff i wouldnt have really had a choice sadly

obsidian sapphire
#

i get that

woven apex
#

Have you considered allowing us to watch ads out of free will

near wharf
#

i did have ads and like

#

just didnt fit well

woven apex
#

So people who can't spend money can still support you

near wharf
#

and ive always been SUPER aganst ads

#

like

#

ok hang on say you watch a 30 sec add

woven apex
#

No bonus

#

Just pure ads

tropic ruin
#

I really wish there was a way to get more silos and boosts without paying $10

near wharf
#

and i get 1 cent, yea?

smoky juniper
#

No game, just pure ads

near wharf
#

so if 10,000 people watched an ad, i get $100

true dirge
#

Adle skilling

near wharf
#

thats 5,000 minuites

#

or 100 hours

#

you guys collectively just sold ytour time to me for like $1 /hr

tropic ruin
#

4 1/12 days

near wharf
#

which i think is really sad

#

no offence to the people out there who make that due to poverty i dont mean it that way

woven apex
#

It's not different when donating/buying

unborn finch
#

when it comes to devs and their monetization options i respect you and the makers of AntiMatters dimensions, you make it easy to get gems for free, and AMD makes it so you only buy their stuff for convenience and not that its ever mandatory

near wharf
#

no no but its your time

woven apex
#

I work to get money to give you

#

Work costs time

near wharf
#

well

#

your not workign for $1/hr

#

well

#

ok not where im from no one in the US works for that

woven apex
#

Not 1 dollar no

near wharf
#

again i dont mean to be rude to the many around the world that have no choice but to work for scraps

woven apex
#

But not far offhahaha

near wharf
#

min wage is like

#

$8?

woven apex
#

What would that be in euro's

near wharf
#

ok i sweari keep forgetting US isnt hte only place in the world ffs lol

#

sorry sorry its not my fault blame US me-dia

woven apex
#

It also depends on age and job

near wharf
#

well ok but if youre in euros

#

your ad views are worth less sadly

#

so its liek the same ratio if you see what i mean

woven apex
#

Racism

near wharf
#

hey dont blame me im just tellin you waht the ad companies give

woven apex
#

I thought you were real

#

Unsubbing

near wharf
#

how can u un sub

tropic ruin
#

Also the $10 IAP doesnt even help get the Hyperloop Station

obsidian sapphire
#

i like ads as a free alternative to suport devs

near wharf
#

if we are not even in submarine πŸ€”

unborn finch
#

thats why i have no issue buying the option to remove ads if its cheap enough and as AMD basically made the price of the ads removal a cup of coffee

tropic ruin
#

Which costs 50k Golden Eggs, the games premium currency

woven apex
near wharf
#

loool i forgot i had that

#

the money side of this stuff i bonkers not gonna lie

unborn finch
#

agreed

tropic ruin
#

Get lava to 4k subs and he releases another annoucement

near wharf
#

so much stuff to keep track of and sometimes the margins are just tiny

#

on mobile that is

#

like i made $50 billion in march

woven apex
near wharf
#

but after cuts and stuff it was only $15 billion

woven apex
#

Poor

near wharf
#

couldnt believe how robbed i got

unborn finch
#

jesus

near wharf
#

wait thats a real google search isnt it

woven apex
#

Jep

obsidian sapphire
#

almost forgot that you are speakinbg in us numbers

near wharf
#

zimbabwe

woven apex
#

Thanks Lava

near wharf
#

owie

#

what do you guys think this update will have to be

#

to live up to whatever hype there is for it

woven apex
#

Wait you are above 18 right?

tropic ruin
#

Lava when is Open Beta?

near wharf
#

i am yea

#

open beta probably like

woven apex
#

Phew

near wharf
#

mid august

unborn finch
#

are you seriously making 15 billion a month on this game or was that rhetorical?

woven apex
#

Dodged a bullet

near wharf
#

think like august 15 - 20

obsidian sapphire
#

it has to be good

near wharf
#

coolbond i dont think bezos makes that much

tropic ruin
#

So in about a month

#

I cannot wait

smoky juniper
#

Well all I hope for is either a good way to move my save from pc, or, even better, the update hitting pc at the same time as android

woven apex
#

You were gonna choose people on the 25th right?

obsidian sapphire
#

the worst case scenario (for me) is that the announcement is going to announce an update in march 2021

tropic ruin
#

I dont think anyone can wait anymore, since the update is so close

near wharf
#

probably not gonna happen but if you set up a cloudsave on android i dont mind sending u gems so you can buy your progress back partially CM

smoky juniper
#

Lol for 15 billion a month Lava could just hire google or someone to make the game for him

near wharf
#

hey king

#

yea*

woven apex
#

Okay nice

tropic ruin
#

He could hire an entire working team

near wharf
#

id need a LOT less than 15 billion...

#

probably only 14 billion

#

hey 1 billion less is a lot right? hahaha

woven apex
#

Reminds me of an old joke

unborn finch
#

i would offer my services as the swedish translator

obsidian sapphire
#

if you spend your money right maybe 13.5 billion?

smoky juniper
#

Well thanks Lava for the offer, I’ll consider it

tropic ruin
#

he could buy about 170 million pizzas

near wharf
#

yea PM me whenever cm

granite hamlet
#

Oh hi lava

woven apex
#

Something like: I saw two guys beating up an old lady

#

So with all my skill and training

obsidian sapphire
#

also can you someone wright that number in scientific notation

unborn finch
#

i kinda wish i had a pizza now not gonna lie but im poor currently

woven apex
#

I went in

unborn finch
#

4 more days until payday

woven apex
#

She didn't stand a chance against the three of us

near wharf
#

old lady from cookie clicker end game

#

they had it coming

woven apex
#

You'd need a lot more than 3 people for her

near wharf
#

woven apex

Like 14 billion at least

About $460

I’ve been playing since february and haven’t gotten a reason to spend any money and i dont think it’ll come

golden ivy
#

i have spent roughly 100$

#

i made it a goal to buy every bundle

#

and then i bought gems to open card packs

waxen lintel
#

I've only been playing for a few days, but I spent the $10 on the starter pack mainly as a "thanks" to the dev for making such a great game. Even if I don't play it for a long time, the depth is insane and obviously has taken a ton of work.

Remember the days when pushing narc was endgame?

Me, koryn, Andrew, Adam, and a few others.

I've been putting off ascending and esp rebirthing because I don't wanna have to re-upgrade everything

#

It's such a chore

wanton pawn
#

Anyone know where the navy cross is at?

fleet ivy
#

Yeah the game could have used an update to add more auto upgrades early in the patches

#

That's why most of us don't bother rebirthing or ascending anymore lol

I'm starting to miss Bray always talking in here

oh YIKES

now I wanna know what happened lol

i mean there ain't much more to it
she doesn't feel the same way about me

#

Ahhh k

#

feel sorry for you man

#

in my case

#

"I love you"
"I love you more"

granite hamlet
#

What did i drop into

golden ivy
#

tbh, I only actually told her after MONTHS of her dropping hints everywhere

granite hamlet
#

Basically a minefield at this point

golden ivy
#

also heya owls how you been

granite hamlet
#

I took a covid test yesterday

At least im safe

OH GOD

They use the same end of the swab

From mouth, nostril then other nostril

#

And they shove it so down far your nose

#

IT IS SO PAINFUL

golden ivy

they go almost halfway through your head

I haven't gotten tested and my god now i don't ever want to

@tropic ruin uh idk if it's because I have monster health reduction bonuses or some shit

but I've beaten keymaster with 100QQ light blue

and then when I was doing the final ice cream I beat it with 340Q I think

I just beat lunar isle keymaster to open maelstrom with 900b light blue

Thanks πŸ˜…

golden ivy
#

adam-

#

no

#

you aren't the first to say that

#

and probably not gonna be the last anger

#

saying pickup lines and i love you to each other doesn't scream "friend" to me

#

well-

#

actually nvm

#

lol

long glen
#

I disagree. Pickup lines can be fun, and love doesn't have to be romantic.

golden ivy
#

what chy said

#

yeah sure but they're doing that and literally right after that saying i love you

granite hamlet
#

Omg

#

Its chy

#

The maker of the worksheet

golden ivy
long glen
#

Well, technically, I do agree that it doesn't "scream" friend, but it also doesn't... exclude the possibility? Words are hard.

golden ivy
#

@granite hamlet yes

#

chy brings up good points

#

yeah but it certainly points to more than friends

#

"nothing is a cheesy pick up line when you say it because it's automatically a cute flirty attempt"

#

just some flirting between friends guys

#

it's all good

#

This is a weird fuckin conversation

I prefer this to anal pears.
