Spent way too much time playing this game!

The general incremental game flow is there and it feels like one (hence my long play time of multiple hours). However some things aren't feeling good yet.

First of the descriptions/ui is confusing. What does fire do? Or weaken? Especially confusing was the mason upgrade for faster processing. Does it mean the masons spend less time at their building? The numbers that pop up to the top left are nice, but also confusing. I guess its something like DPS? 

The beginning was confusing too. There is this wall that you have to chip away, so much is clear from the get go. However i was expecting some number go up. Instead i have this pile of coke on the ground that doesn't do anything. Took a while until i found out about masons and that they actually convert the "work" to currency.

After figuring out the start, things went up like you want it for incrementals. The longer it went, the more punishing the game felt however. I remember incrementals to always slow down in a current building tier, but giving you some momentum once you build the next one. This wasn't the case here. After mages everything became a slog. Once i had some upgrades for the ka-boomers, they were super strong, but the money flow still was slow. Unlocking the trebuchets made me think it's gonna go up again. At this point the ka-boomers did like 700dps. I added a few trebuchets and they did like 20? I felt betrayed. In the long run trebuchets scaled better due to nukes and dakka, but the upgrades were expensive. I thought i should just focus on dynamite boys.

Since housing gets incredibly expensive, i was regretting getting so many pickers. I wish i had put more people into other buildings, like ka-boomers or trebuchets.

Oh and one last thing: I don't get the wall hp thing. When i kill a wall and another one spawns, is it a better wall? Or is it harder to get resources from it? Or doesn't it do anything yet and has something planned?
