This is really impressive, and very well made!!
I was especially impressed with all the consideration given for different size screens, info shown to the player, and options available - every time I thought "dang, I wish I could-", I would find something just for that.
Some thoughts, for your consideration:
- the important info text elements stay on screen well at different screen sizes, but are sized quite small - in desktop fullscreen they are in the far corners and hard to see
- a little visual feedback on which thing the auto-buyer auto-bought would have high impact
- the shopping cart button enables auto-buy even for things that haven't been unlocked yet - I stopped using it due of this
- often, later in the game, new upgrades keep appearing and disappearing within a second, making it hard to click on or even read (I think this is because my total $ is reaching some threshold, but then the auto-buyer buys something else, taking my money below the threshold again - if so, I recommend that once an upgrade unlock threshold is reached, keep it unlocked even if money goes back down below the threshold
- for my play, it seemed I always make more money if I keep Contracts down to 2? (according to the rate in the top-left anyway)
- ..ah, nvm, I see now I was tricked by day-to-day randomness. Still, that makes me think: what if you also show a running average for $/day? A little line chart that you could watch go up or down would be neat!
- ..ok I'm still not sure about the Contracts: it seems like keeping most of my drivers free ends the day way faster, and with significantly more money too
- anyway: If this is intended as an exercise for the player to figure out, (like stuff in Antimatter Dimensions), then great! But if it's intended to be something you can safely check the auto-buy box on, then consider the above
- I got stuck in an infinite loop one time and- oh, haha, nice! you made a button to get unstuck!
- Export save didn't work for me (maybe not implemented yet? or maybe a Brave browser setting to block clipboard - if so, you could show it in a box on screen, to allow manual copypasting)
(Haven't beat it yet, but looking forward to seeing the ending!)
