This reminds me of the push\/pull processes that I learned about in my Industrial Engineering lean manufacturing classes.  I got to 100M coins, and then everything seemed maxed out.  I liked the different colored bars, and the challenge of keeping everything balanced.  It seemed like 20 minutes flew by in no time as I was playing the game.  The animations of the worker characters were really cute as well.","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Dylan Wolf","author_uid":"1000709","time":"2017-12-10T18:30:02Z","epoch":1512930602,"modified":1512930602,"text":"@McFish: it's an \"idle clicker,\" so there's really none (although I did consider making a \"lose\" condition at one point by making crystals the upgrade currency).

Gets boring pretty quick, but I'm not a huge fan of clickers. A win\/lose condition would have been nice.

I played until I maxed everything out and found that there was nothing left to do. Very satisfying to upgrade storage and watch the numbers ramp up. The art and little guys were very well done, but it would have been nice to have more contrast between the guys and the ground.","likes":0,"format":"md"}],"format":"md","images":["ld40\/64749-d340e059def1d3f909d455cd7ee7737f.png"],"links":[{"url":"https:\/\/dylanwolf.itch.io\/wizcorp","text":"HTML5 (web)"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"50837","g_author":"1000709","g_event":"LD40","g_eventkey":"70","g_subevent":"COMPO","g_urlkey":"249358","g_title":"WizCorp","g_status":"USEAR3","g_place":"99999","g_commentcount":"7","g_site2_node_id":"64749","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":{"n_key":"64749","n_urlkey":"249358","n_parent":"49883","n_path":"\/events\/ludum-dare\/40\/wizcorp","n_slug":"wizcorp","n_type":"item","n_subtype":"game","n_subsubtype":"compo","n_author":"709","n_created":"1512338143","n_modified":"1512340767","n_version":"171090","n_status":"COMMIT"},"node":{"id":64749,"parent":49883,"superparent":9,"author":709,"type":"item","subtype":"game","subsubtype":"compo","published":"2017-12-03T22:39:27Z","created":"2017-12-03T21:55:43Z","modified":"2017-12-03T22:39:27Z","version":171090,"slug":"wizcorp","name":"WizCorp","body":"# Story\nCongratulations on opening your very own WizCorp franchise, $VALUED_INVESTOR_NAME!\n\nYou're on your way to supplementing your income by leveraging WizCorp's patented, paradigm-shifting supply-chain management process for producing magically-charged aetheric artifacts--the essential tool for almost every sorcerous industry in today's fast-paced fantasy world.\n\nMINE the aetherium ore from the ground, PROCESS it into aetherium crystal, CRAFT it into aetheric devices, and SELL them for a tidy profit.\n\nOf course, you can't do it alone.
