comments for An Ordinary Vanilla JS Idle Game
sort: go back
This is really interesting! I'm really looking forward to see where this goes. One thing I would suggest is some more instruction in the game, saying things like if the de noido number matches your points, you lose; or that the amount of points you have on loss results in gaining rage which can be used for meta-progression. Awesome game!
Game needs a mute button
The game for some reason is looping back around and stopping the noise and the points whenever I buy the first upgrade? I cant play because of that, unless im missing something...
When I bought the second x-iry boost the game reset but I only had 1 annoyance level. When I exported just before I buy again the second x-iry boost and the bug happened again, when I imported it dropped to 0 annoyance level which is weird because it annoyed me a lot.
my bonused from X-iry went away when i reloaded the game
developer response: not THAT cycle again 😭 (will fix it next update)
how de noido works is if your point is below the red number, you lose
Add a mute button
Absolutely infuriating that practically every time I try to buy the second upgrade, that run will delete itself, I get no rewards and have to do it all again. It wouldn't be so bad if it didn't happen every time I'm able to afford it.
developer response: Make sure that you have more points left than De Noido's points after buying it
Guide:
When starting, you have 10s until the noise, so you can generate Points, we’ll call them P, in which before you should try to buy upgrade #1 before the noise.
When noise begins, a number, that we’ll call N, exponentially increases. You cannot let P<N or you lose and you gain rage. Despair is produced by Rage. After buying Rage #3, it becomes easy to buy upgrade #2 because before it wouldn’t work. After 10 Rage, you unlock Despair Buyables, and X-iry’s Annoyance.
Despair buyables increase rage gain for despair, and X’iry’s Annoyance gives a boost costing Rage&Despair. +4 points after everything and +x0.1 r&d gain. After buying, you gain a tree point, and also keep the domain tab! But, tree is a WIP so sadly cannot be bought… just not now…
developer response: Correction: Despair is produced based on your best survival time
the second annoyance upgrade doesn't work, even if you have the required amounts of rage and despair.
this devastating truth has increased my IRL levels of rage and despair
(interesting game start tho)
Thats quite ordinary
most average pizza tower fan content
goofy
don't rush to get the upgrades, that puts your points below the noise and destroys reset gains
I wanted to give it a fair shot, but currently there's a bug where any time I try to buy a non-rage upgrade it just resets my run instead. Only happens when the upgrade is affordable. It's about a 50/50 if I can buy the first upgrade, but buying the 2nd one is impossible.
I don't get the timing of buying the first upgrade, if I buy it too soon after it's available I just lose instantly for some reason even if I end up having points left over, sometimes it works though
how am i supposed to survive
is it just a countdown that i can upgrade or is it just chance or
Surprisingly fun for something meant to be rather weird!
Aside from just further content, I'd say the biggest request I'd have would be some basic theming (mitigable via galaxy's tweaks, so less important), and some sound scaling (due to the slowly-increasing volume, I can't use my system volume manager to turn it down, and it does get a bit loud, but is at least pretty interesting)
Granted, I have no idea who the two people are or what they have to do with anything, so maybe I'm missing something
developer response: X-iry is essentially ULTRAKILL version of Navy: Evil and annoying as hell.
De Noido: it's calling, pick up the phone
while it is definitely a game, and is a new concept (at least for me), the sound.... please add a mute button in game x.x (I know I can always mute in other ways, but still x.x)
