I wanted to dislike it for being so derivative of Fill Up The Hole, but I do appreciate that it kind of does its own thing beyond the basic premise and aesthetic. I am also as disappointed as others at the AI usage, but again appreciate that you at least bothered to iterate and balance. More than can be said about the outright AI slop.
I really appreciate you taking time and playing it! yea I absolutely took visual inspiration from fill up the hole and gnorp analog. Both great games, tried to do my own spin on it as far as upgrades and story. I wanted to avoid the ascension/prestige mechanic. Think it’s gotta way out of hand for artificially extending gameplay. Also wanted to try a different upgrade system than a skill tree, every incremental has a skill tree and I just got sick of them a bit.
I understand the ai disappointment, I cant argue that at all. This is really just a little side project I’ve been having fun with. Thanks for playing and I’ll be adding more content to the game as I have free time.
