Really fun little game! I included it in my compilation video series for the Clicker Jam Spring, if you’d like to check it out. :)

LOVE the backstory--too funny!  Visually very smooth and nice on the eyes.  The music and sound fits in well.

I want to know what happens after I manage to destroy 5 million artifacts, but it'll probably end up being the game that got away.  :)  Nice work!

You escape the government. The rest is to be discovered. Thanks so much!

45 minutes in, and I'm 2% of the way.  Cost scaling seems to exceed the tool leveling bonus, so there's a perpetual decrease in efficacy over time - the rate of success is going to continue to go up, but increasingly slower, and at three quarters of an hour in it's already at a crawl.  I'm expecting it will take over a solid day of playing to complete this game, and there don't appear to be any unlocks or surprises to discover, so my motivation to continue is low.

Doesn't run when the window isn't active, so I'm looking at ~20-30 hours of active screentime to get to the end.  Maybe using the system clock to sync time would be better? That would allow the user to close it down and come back later.



Music and concept are solid.  Display and UI positioning are mostly good - the idols being auto-smashed looks glitchy and distracting once a couple of tools are bought and the rate of destruction exceeds a few idols a second.

Thanks for the feedback! I was hoping to make a longer game, but in the future I will update the game to make it able to run in the background

Seems great to play as an idle game, some very nice number progression!

Developer

This is what the UI will most likely look like in the future

Thanks! Achievements were kind of a last minute idea, lol. Love your game, super satisfying!

Really good but also really tiring!

Developer

Thanks!

Cool game! I like the level system. Makes the small milestones feel really impactful, especially early. Would love to see some more polish and a stat for my chunks/sec. 

Developer

Yeah, I’m the future I am hoping to polish the game! Thanks for your suggestion!

Awesome game, solid mechanics. I really enjoy the epic music and the awesome pixel art for the artifact.

Some suggestions for minor improvements:

  • Some juice and polish would have been a nice addition. E.g. coloring the artifacts with a random color and adding some particle effects
  • graying out buttons to indicate whether they can be clicked
  • keep the game running in the background 
  • It would be nice to see what my chunks/second income is

Overall a nice and solid game that I really enjoyed!

Developer

thanks! I am hoping to change a few things after the jam and then release the game again.

Developer
