first up. Credit where credit is due.
The art on this game is phenomenal. buttery smooth and high quality
A lot of nice little touches like the phone on the main screen, the weather changing outside the office window.
But the game itself is, as said before, way to slow. Even for an idle clicker
To give you an idea..
right now I have the first level fully unlocked
the second level has all locations unlocked but only the first one has all 3 animations unlocked. The others are at 2 anims unlocked
the third level has the first and second location unlocked.
I make 2.02 Billion/s
The cheapest upgrade is 2.57Trillion. this means that to purchase this level I need to wait 21 minutes. Which will then add 1,12 million/s payout to this location.
at a rate of 2,02 Billion this doesn't even register.
If you leave CookieClicker running for 20 min in the background you can do a lot more then 1 click
also, what is up with the strange decision to have a click on a girl relate to the payout on her level not your total.
This does undermine the usefulness of items as they relate to clicking. Also the price on items follows the same ridiculous curve as the locations.
finally, you might want to consider making it so that unlocking a new zone also unlocks the first location. cause right now I need to pay 312 Quadrillion for the BDSM level. that is a massive amount of money with my current income, and i would get exactly no benefit from this.
Now i realize all of this might sound very negative, when I promise you it isn't. It is just that you have a good game here that is really doing it's best to prevent me from enjoying it.
You said that the prices are so you have time to develop new content without the player hitting a wall. But right now, I am hitting a wall even though there is more content locked away. And that is worse then me hitting end of content
