The game seems fun but i think i ran into a bug. I closed the game after completing the upgrades for the timer. unless I'm mistaken the timer is going faster than it was before like if I didn't upgrade it at all. Yet I'm not able to upgrade it again. I timed it and im getting about 5 seconds to type in calculations with the time upgrade maxed. That is not enough time to do any calculations for the high numbers
Congrats on the 2 updates <3 I see you put some of my suggestions :D thank you!
do you think you might add a way to reset your save (so i can replay the entire game again), simply a 'reset save' button in the settings would be cool (although i think i can just clear my browser cache)
wheres the flamethrower upgrade that lets me kll the spider.
in all seriousness though; (not like you could tell with this font that forces me into all caps)
The spider is really annoying, and basically just forces you to wait until its webs go away, since it can block the multiplier button, essentially making it impossible to type any numbers above 27 into the calculator, which really screwed me over 99% of the time.
Actually it's kind of fun, in a weird way. My only probably, and the reason I couldn't finish it, was the slight screen movement. I know what you're doing it, but it made me feel kind of motion sick to be honest.
Beat the game entirely, It's not bad, the vibe is cool and the models are really well made.
I enjoyed the main gameplay but it's still far from engaging, I mainly have issues with the game's progression:
1- (early game) the initial progression is really slow, since you only have 1 all the answers are the same and you spend a few minutes just trying to get the first upgrade, even then you're still mostly clicking 1 number and enter (maybe i should've gotten the slot first?)
2- (mid game) if you do (2-1=1) and (1=1) you get the same score and money, i think it would be great if getting answers differently would have different score (maybe a multiplier for each slot used) this issue doesn't show up late game since large numbers typically have 1 solution
3- (late game) large numbers typically have 1 solutions and you most likely don't know it (: i found myself more and more trying to get 'close' to the answer instead of finding the actual answer (maybe that's intended?), I'd love a way to get more tries for each question, would encourage trying to get the exact answer by trying out different numbers (maybe just being able to see the result without submitting it as the answer)
that's my main review of the game (apologies if it's long XD)
At the early game [or any other point], it is encouraged to use the "double reward boost" and the "bug spray" boost to progress much faster. I just did a quick playtest and got the first upgrade in less than one min with the boosts
Yeah, the score is based on what you get from your equation. Also, I'm pretty sure the higher wanted answers in the late game could be achieved in multiple ways
The getting a close result part was implemented as a safe net so it doesn't feel frustrating when making equations
The timer upgrade should help, it increases the waiting windows so there is a bit more time until the right equation is formed, altho i like the idea of showing the answer before you could push it out, might add it in new updates
Thanks again for this lovely review, I always like some feedback

Hmmm, I will investigate that. Thanks for reporting :]

for sure anything for my lovely players ;]
Oh dear, the spider is stealing coins!
Thanks for the report dude, gonna fix it in the next update
need to teach that spider to keep its hands (or.. legs?) clean
Late game is a bit too dificult. im usally good at math too but i feel like the jump between ? = 2 and ? + ? x ? = 175 is way too quick.
The progression in 1.2 is designed to shine more focus in late game because it is more engaging,
and early game goes by faster. I did this because I got feedback that the game was "slow",
Luckily the older version is still available if you want to try that (the 1.0 version)
thanks for the feedback :]

Kill it with fire!
Yeah, he is a little pesky spider, but you can use the bug spray boost to get rid of it for some time.
Thanks for playing and for the review :]

You can turn it off in the settings, just press escape, I'm glad you enjoyed the game :]

This is boring, sorry. Clicking 1 and result over and over again is not fun
I just updated the game with new progression and QOL changes, give it another shot if you want to. Anyway, thanks for the feedback :]
I don't really know what to do, i'm clicking all the things and They only shake around a bit, and the wanted answer is always 1
ahh, you need to upgrade the calculator to get more buttons to get more coins and score,
the end game is the yellow button with the trophy on it,
all the info is displayed on the digital clock when you hover over upgrades and boosts
(i probably need to add a screen to explain that)
