comments for AtomicGi's Idle Minesweeper
sort: go back
cant see shit what it says in upgrades
The font used is near impossible to read, even with the game enlarged. Could do with things like bigger maps. I'm not sure how the player gets to googol, but evidently I need to play for longer. Nice beginning though, good luck!
Seems like there could be something here but it's unplayable in its current state. Text is either hard to read or illegible, can't tell whats going on right at the start of the game, interruptions every 3 seconds when buying upgrades, and worst of all sometimes the puzzles are just straight up wrong/impossible (https://imgur.com/a/R33JT59). On the other hand, the style is cool, animations are good, and concept is interesting. Needs a lot more work.
developer response: Thanks. It's still in VERY early development. I need to add more QoL updates and whatnot. I do see the problem with the blocky text-- it's how the game has the pixelated vibes. However, It's hard to choose just some things to pixelate over others.
Thank you for your feedback, I'll get working as soon as possible!
Idle minesweeper is cool, but needs refinement. Upgrade texts are illegible and should have more information on what they do. Don't know how the game evolves, but I'd say that it needs a slower beggining, like unlocking bits of automation such as: First click, flagging/revealing 100% tiles (if a tile is 100% a mine it gets flagged, if 100% safe it gets mined), and later you introduce things like "places flags in places that are not guaranteed" or "safely reveals random spaces" to the automation. As a minesweeper fan, I give this a 3, but I hope you can bring it up to a 5
can you pause the game while i'm doing upgrades. i want to upgrade not get halted every 5.001 seconds because the robots are absolutely stupid. clankers even
I don't usually do this but I gave it 1 star only because of the "Jesus loves you" text. I don't come here for religion or politics, so I don't particularly want to see either one. Imagine if a game dev added "Allah loves you" or "Jehovah loves you" text or some such... know what I mean? It's just kind of... eh.
This is the loudest game I have ever opened in my browser O_O
The game was fairly nice (if basic) otherwise!
Improve the text and add more content, and you'll be great!
Is there any way to change the background? It's really making it hard to play this.
how did they make a tile disappear-
developer response: I'm working on a bug fix right now. It duplicated.
a couple things:
1. why are the diggers dumb and not do their job
2. please make some reward for beating it, plus make so it automatically restart once you do all mines
3. add features that when you have ur cursor on the upgrades, it tells you what it does (compare to other games for context)
ive never seen idle and minesweeper in one sentence and next to each other
Am i really minesweeping when theres robots sweeping the mines for you? 🤔🤔🤔
@AtomicGi The pixelated text isn't necessarily a bad thing. It's the fact that it becomes unreadable. Scaling it back a bit would do wonders while still keeping the aesthetic. My biggest issue is the impossible levels.
It was okay, got repetitive pretty quickly, exponential scaling rewards with near-linear completions isn't really all that fun.
Also, when you go to upgrades, then go back, it will NOT register any wins for me for some reason until I reset the board.
And I did get above 999P, which starting glitching the display, which means... I "won" the game?
also i completed the mineswepper board thing (i flagged all mines and clicked on everything else) but its not doin the thing when i complete it
Should not be tagged googology
@tencars111 did you mean googology
Interface is a bit of a mess in terms of readability but seems like a good start for a game, especially if you like Minesweeper (which I do).
Also, I did "Rebirth" but all I got was a screen of falling stars. Should something else happen?
make the text readable for the upgrades please.
