If you are looking for potential play-testers come check my discord. You can promote your project there.

Now to the actual feedback. I think passive income is broken.

After getting the first passive income mob the need too play the game is unnecessary. Maybe add a limit of how many coins a character can earn per level? As you upgrade the character the value goes down to 0 and you can continue making passive income.

Example: Character ears 10 passive income up to a total of 1000. After 1000 it stops and you have to upgrade him to level 2. Once he is level 2 the value changes from 1000 to 0 and you earn 10 passive income. Rinse and repeat until max level is reached.

I attached a picture of all final characters on max level with 54B coins and also in wave 3.

Thank you for the credit as well! Cant wait to see what else you make on your project.


Hello! You are very welcome for the credit!

Also thank you for the discord invite! I have gladly accepted this and I am now part of your community!

In regards to the feedback:

  • I totally agree with you on the passive income. It was hard to try and balance all the gold values but settled on the current values for the purpose of testing, also the current gold system does meet the requirements of what I need so had to simplify a lot of systems.
  • With that said, I am currently reworking the entire gold/value system of the game as the current system is not adequate for the purpose I intended it for. Hopefully with the rework, the gold income and cost of units etc will be a lot easier to balance.
  • With passive gold limits, I do think there needs to be something to encourage the player to continue playing, I was thinking a time limit rather than an entire hard-cap, such as passive income only works for 2 hours without playing input/wave completion because this will be better in the long run as when I eventually increase/remove the level cap, especially when the gold income values have been more balanced/reduced.

Thank you for playing and the feedback, I have taken it in to account!
