I played it longer than I thought I would. :smile: I usualy don't like clicker games, but the fast progress kept me playing the game. The only thing that was realy annoying was the sound effect of the gem, when you leveled up a lot it really hurt my ears.
The sound effect gets annoying pretty fast. It's weirdly harsh on the ears when you really get going. Some better sound effect management would do good here.
The trading post basically makes every other upgrade, including the mega drill, obsolete. Due to exponential growth of gem collection, and linear growth of the upgrade cost.
The pacing between upgrades until the "endgame" with trading posts is nice though, striking a balance enough to keep me engaged to the end. That's probably the most important thing about autoclickers: constantly keeping your players wanting the next thing without them getting bored of having it too quickly or too slowly.
Core gameplay feels nice, but the whole thing could use a little polish. Nice work!
Overall, I found this game quite amusing and performance wise, it runs surprisingly well even though I'm currently racking up a mass amount of gems with tons of drills and trading posts.
(Also, I love that you can buy more than one capitalism. :money_mouth:)
This was way more fun than I expected, cause I'm not the biggest fan of clicker games.
Creating buildings to improve your... escallation, well yeah it's all about escallation! Good job on that part :D
Also cute little mascot at the bottom :D
Nice game.
It was quite hypnotizing to see the continuous flow of gems once capitalism bought ! I wish I could see how many gems was produced per second (or minut) during my progression ^^
Nice game, congratulations on your compo !

I do enjoy that you can just keep buying "win capitalism" even after you've completed everything, makes you feel like a real billionaire.
Great Art. Game play is fluid and easy to get into. Really great submission.
Thanks so much for bringing this by my stream. Here's a link to the VOD:
