I have finally, finally started understanding why people have been labeling this an incremental game. For a long time, I was like, there's no "numbers go up!" at least not beyond what normal games have. But it's comments like these that have made me slowly realize that the feel of an incremental is the feel of a game unfolding and gradually expanding, and you slowly conquering the beginning parts of the game until they're no longer so manual. And that is, evidently, exactly what this game is.
Thank you so much for your kind words. :)
