Current bugs:

- During one prestige, my money didn't reset, so I could just buy all pokemon again instantly and immediately prestige again.

- The message you get for catching a permanently unlocked shiny comes up every time. I prestiged three times after permanently unlocking shiny Meowth, clicked 'don't show me again' every time, and saw it again the next time.

Gameplay-wise, your income bonus scales much faster than prestige requirements. By the time I was in the type-boosting balls, each of my runs was down to less than five minutes.

Friendship is also slow to build and doesn't seem very well explained. In that same amount of time the highest I got any pokemon's friendship was 14. My guess is that friendship increases over time while you have a pokemon in your party with it actively selected (i.e. you can see its friendship level and change its nickname), but again, I don't know if there are other factors at play. Between this and how fast prestiges now are, I can't imagine how long it would take to unlock every ability.

Hey there! Just trying it out again for the first time since these updates happened, and I love the changes. I've got no notes, except for a UI glitch I'm encountering. Cards with both CHOICE and TARGET (in my case Granary Keeper and Compass) don't show the button to change their target once they're played. This means if I change their choice I can't choose a target without removing and re-adding them to my layout, and there's no way for me to choose two targets for them since the choice selector goes away after clicking the first card.

I think I'm also having a second UI glitch with Compass, though I'm not sure. I can see choices for North, South and East, but no West. I'm not sure if there just isn't a West choice at all or if it's not displaying it for some reason.

Thank you for the reply! One other thing to note, more of a point of confusion, is that I'm never really sure how 'this card is multiple cards' will work on various effects. For instance, Wolf Pack counts as three cards, and The Hunt gives 'every' Beast card a 75% boost. I get that it would be busted if it worked this way, but with the way it's worded I did wonder if  it would get the 75% buff three times, once for each card.

All I can think to fix this confusion is to add the Twin Idols expanded text to every card like this - 'counts as X cards for anything that counts cards or tags' - to clarify what this effect does.

I haven't seen every card yet so there may be other things that don't make sense (I have a card that effects the ROOT keyword but no cards that have ROOT on them), but this is just what I noticed so far.

Offline gains don't seem to work - I closed the game and came back 8 hours later, but my stats page says 'time away 0s'.

Having this same problem on browser, there's no way to scroll the game and things move offscreen when you get too many squares.

Lots of fun! I wouldn't say this is balanced right now, a few unit generation buildings snowballed me through every round past 10 in a single turn of combat, but I love the premise here and I can see it turning into something really addictive.

It's not that the crows are reaching the grass before the goat. It's that the goat often isn't going for the grass at all, and just sits in the random corner it's moved to while a half dozen pieces of grass spawn and are eaten by crows.

The goat has no interest at all in going for grass, and it all gets eaten up by the crows so quickly anyway. I don't really see how this game is idle when it pretty much requires you to be clicking all of the grass.

This is amazing! An incremental card game is something I've wanted to play for ages, and this ticks all the boxes perfectly. Looking forward to where this might go!

In terms of more constructive feedback, I found the prestige system to be underwhelming. I prestiged twice before beating the final trial and felt kind of bad that I hadn't done more runs before getting to that point. I think the relic for idle token gain is a bit busted and incentivizes not actually playing the game, and as others have said it would be nice if there were more card draw options to offset the opportunity cost of increasing your deck. In my runs I only ever bought wanderer, candle and maybe spider.

Once again very happy with the game how it is now! All of your stuff is incredible, please keep it coming.

Seems like only the top totem on a stack actually does its attack? Not sure if that's intentional.

Fun gameplay in the active sections, but the skill tree felt extremely linear 99% of the time. There were rarely choices to make, just 'buy the next upgrade in the line'.

I'm having the same bug multiple people are reporting here. Purchasing a building or research doesn't just lock up that amount of resources, it actively prevents any further resources of those type from generating.

For example, if I have 300/400 wood stored and buy something using wood, then my wood remains at 300/400 until the building has finished construction.

The one-button idea is cute, but this game is incredibly hard right now. You don't have a lot of time to react to the enemies appearing, and since you don't know the range of the turrets it's easy to click too early and accidentally move instead of attacking.

Definitely looking forward to more content in this! Beat the first boss and hoped it was just a bug that nothing happened, but I get that development takes time.

Really enjoying the game so far! One thing I might request is if some kind of temp image can be added to equipment that currently doesn't have anything? Even if it's just a number, letter or short word, something to make it more immediately obvious what's been forged and what I'm equipping.

A great idea with a lot of potential! I like this new trend of textless games, though in this case the UI could be a bit clearer on how things work (many thanks for the explainer text in the description). Pacing is a bit slow at the moment and progression feels very linear. My one significant gripe is that you're meant to be making the blocks to create larger shapes, but the speed at which you make smaller shapes has no impact on the build speed of larger shapes.

Very fun game, looking forward to when saves are functional <3

(Would also appreciate a prestige upgrade for 'auto-target nearest enemy' or something of the like)

Incredibly fun game! My biggest complaint is that there isn't more of it <3

(Though on a more critical note, it does feel like some of the craftable areas aren't that substantial. I was excited to find out what new equipment I could make using materials from different areas, but there really wasn't much in them at all. The only one I found worthwhile was the town for easier string.

There also seem to be a lot more items that buff strength than intelligence, and with much higher buffs, which feels a bit bad when there are so many more int-based characters than strength-based.)

Game looks fun, but as of right now a lot of the UI elements are difficult to navigate outside of fullscreen.

Five squares generate and then generation stops forever. Refreshing resets the game but the same thing happens again right after.

Does it? I didn't notice anything in the explanation that it would do that. Unless unlocking layer 2 intrinsically speeds up layer 1 progression, which I don't recall seeing mentioned.

Fun to play and I enjoy the different themes of each layer.

I do have one complaint about the current build, which is the permanent upgrade to immediately unlock layer 2. Unless I'm misunderstanding how the systems work, this currently does nothing - you still need 20 constructs for your first profile, so having access to the screen before then does nothing.

Congratulations on your kid!

I would really reconsider whether this is an idle game considering it's entirely active.

Very fun rules, but the game seems fundamentally broken right now. I've lost multiple rounds because character hints were completely incorrect, and the character was neither corrupted nor drunk. Would absolutely play more if these issues were fixed.

For some reason the game won't load at all for me. It stays stuck on a black screen, with the custom cursor loaded but nothing else happens.

Lots of fun! Definitely a game I'm going to keep my eye on.

The only thing right now is that it gets repetitive pretty quickly. Probably needs either some more randomisation in terms of treats and modules or more ways to vary your deck at the beginning. I also found that I very rarely corrupted or optimised many cards in a game, even with the most modules possible.

The game is currently unplayable for me (playing on Firefox). I see something for a moment as the page is loading, but then it disappears and all I can see is the scan-line effect.

I don't know why a game like this is tagged 'idle' when it's an active play game.

Very fun game, sadly couldn't complete as I experienced a glitch right at the end of the game. I could no longer draw circles and the automated drawing stopped, leaving me unable to make any more circles.

Has the makings of a very fun game! Looking forward to seeing the result.

Currently ends kind of abruptly, and it's a bit of a feel-bad that it can end before you finish the entire tree and there's no way to go back in to finish it.

I have no idea what everyone in the comments is saying about the timer, that's half the point and removing it would make this game feel a lot less fun.

Very fun game! is there any possibility of adding an 'export save' button to transfer my save from browser to desktop?

Fun game with a neat framing device. My only complaint is that it doesn't feel like there's a lot of options when it comes to upgrading; large portions of the upgrade 'tree' are one long line where you just buy one upgrade after another without a lot of decision making.

Having the same UI problems as others.

Super fun as always. Had an issue on browser (Firefox) where the game froze up after about fifteen minutes, but I downloaded it and it ran fine.

Yeah, making them take less time would be a huge help. More variety sounds fun but probably wouldn't make me feel any better about the ads unless they also took less time.

Game is very fun, but I feel like the 'fewer forced ads' upgrade is either broken or useless. I've clicked about twenty ads with it enabled, and every single one of them played in full.

Funny game, very much not an idle game.

Fun gameplay loop, no comments on how it plays. The 'you win' screen gave me a massive jump though, maybe consider toning down the sound or having more of a lead-in to it.
