comments for Spice Idle
sort: go back
*looks into settings, sees own name, scratching head, watches the lines changed*.... damn... i did something a real long time ago 😅 can't remember doing this anymore
good to see spice idle on galaxy finally. played this a long time ago and i am ready to play it again
so... am I doing something wrong, or is ascension speed half the time quite glacial? Like, once I start nearing the next important upgrade my pace just slows to a crawl and I need 6+ hours of idleness, if not more, to slowly crawl towards what I need
developer response: sounds like you don't have enough ascensions, which is usually the issue when progress through ascension slows down this much
the "rainbow spice boost based on times ascended" upgrade scales a lot more than you'd expect
+1 on missing the old compendium. It really gave the game a lot of character that others of the genre often lack, and I was legitimately disappointed to see it gone. I was actually hoping it would be even more detailed / fun when I saw it mentioned in the changelog lol. That being said, loving the rest of the update! A lot of great changes, especially regarding ascension. Thanks!
Being able to see how much rainbow spice I will get from prestige while on the 2nd and 3rd prestige sub-tab would be nice. I have all the automators and would like to see the number without having to switch tabs.
aKasimyr said it best themself, m8. I'll quote it here in case he gets buried.

the offline progress is soooo slow
Aw man I didn’t realize the story was removed, I liked it :(
I'm grinding out rainbow spice, and I can't help but feel like ascension is really really far away
man i really miss the old compendium, it was so cool and detailed :sob:
developer response: writing is my weakness and i wasn't personally satisfied with how the writing sounded sometimes, it felt amateur-ish
Just started it (Spice galaxy) and seems like a fun game, but so far its pretty slow paced, not much to do other than wait to unlock the next generator which has a decent-ish jump in price
developer response: for reference, reaching the first major prestige layer should take roughly 2-3 hours to do
This last update made it so that you can't hold "B" and "M" simultaneously. :(
developer response: fixed now in v1.8.6 :)
Oh hey, I love this game. Happy to finally see it on Galaxy! And a big update? Gonna replay immediately.

The pacing issue with Ascension comes into play long before you can get this upgrade.
scrolling is the devil's work from a usability perspective; please consider this. at least even dropping the scrolling to a scrolling div that doesn't make the header/inventory disappear.
the spice must flow
spices, i like it
Yeah ascension progress becomes painfully slow past the ascension automation upgrade, especially given the tab has to be pulled up for it to work or else the entire game pauses
My game crashed on the loading screen. Did I lose all my progress?
developer response: please try refreshing your game, i made a hotfix that should automatically fix broken saves like this
anyone else with this issue should try this too
Also, I highly recommend everyone who plays this game learn the hotkeys asap (scroll down in settings), especially M for max all and the arrow keys to move between tabs/spices. It's also worth noting that the max all key doesn't work on your most recently acquired spice until your first full prestige. You can just hold down M and an arrow key and it'll give you a seizure, but it works!
