Math-based incremental game, mainly focused on Algebra. Features mechanics like Variables, Functions, Square Root, Quadratic Formula, and more. Has 3 prestige layers and 2 side prestiges. Reach 1e308, 1e500,000,000, and even 1e9e15 points!
Thank you to @manfroze#9931 for the original thumbnail, it means a lot!
Things you might like
- There is always a sense of unfolding progress. Every now and then, you'll unlock a new mechanic or an extension to an old mechanic to keep you going.
- There are many, many upgrades! Buy all of the upgrades!
- There is heaps of automation to allow you to stop managing old mechanics and start managing new mechanics.
- This game is linear at first, but gets a lot more strategic later on.
- There is a Textbook tab that allows you to read about mechanics you're confused about! You can also peek at formulas and stuff, for all those math nerds out there.
- Offline progress! In other words, resources keep producing while the game is closed.
Things you might not like
- While there are many idle sections, this game is primarily active. You can't wait your way through this.
- This game requires some brain usage to complete it. This is not a linear, whack-an-upgrade TMT game where you go through one mechanic at a time. This is an unfolding, nonlinear, strategic game where you have to manage a lot of things at once.
- Some people don't like challenges in incremental games. This game has challenges, and they are very important. In fact, some challenges are fairly strategic. If you don't like challenges, don't play this game.
- The tab navigation can be very exhausting and confusing when you have a lot of things unlocked.
- There's a news ticker. Nobody likes news tickers.
latest update
The "Inevitable Post-Release Update" Update v3.0.1 April 15, 2025
- Added a notification that displays after Unit Circle unlock.
- Concealed the details of a Pythagorean Triples milestone description.
- The Complex tab post-Hypercomplex now has a different gradient when Hypercomplex subtabs are overridden.
- Lowered the requirement for the Minibrots subtab to display (180 FS to 150 FS).
- Fixed a bug where average gain/second in Last Ten Runs was wrong.
- Fixed a bug where some subtab display options were no longer available after Integrating.
- Fixed a bug where the Integration prestige formula shown in the Textbook was incorrect.
- Fixed a bug where unlocking CC1 started the CC sweep even if you hadn't met the i requirement to start it.
- Fixed a bug where Derivatives could be produced before they're unlocked.
- Fixed a bug where completing CC4x6 also gave the reward for CC9x6.
- Fixed a bug where IC5x6 was obtained right after you completed IC5x5.
- Fixed a bug where Complex Challenges in World 2 gave incorrect UP amounts when Complex Upgrades are respecced.
- Fixed a bug where tabs could be reshown during the ending sequence.
- The mantissa is no longer displayed for numbers greater than e1e14.
- Time displays are now shortened above 1,000 years.

currently i'm at the stage where ||i get around 20 dx every integration, but upgrades cost thousands. I need to press buy max for every CC3 and CC8.||Maybe I'm not optimizing things correctly, but progress seems quite slow...
developer response: You may need to tweak your number sets. If you have all the perks, getting 20 dx per run is awfully concerning
Currently on Integration Stage. I hid the Quadratic tab while in the late game stage of Polynomials, but when I accidentally did I-reset without showing the tab, I found that I can't make that tab show up again via options.
developer response: Yeah, tab showing/hiding stuff has some recurring reported bugs. I'll make sure to fix some of the issues next update
not sure if its a bug but after purchasing PYC from the perk tree, i can't manually do YC4 and the number of completion does not go as high as when I did it manually
developer response: Yup, this is intentional. You'll eventually buy an Integration Upgrade that gets rid of this problem
add absurd mode
developer response: Sorry, I'm busy right now. I'll add it in v3.0.2, please be patient
playing this again while also playing antimatter dimensions at the same time, now that's what I call an active idle experience
developer response: they're basically the same game smh /j

"Here's a fun game look at the code in game.js and take a shot for every if statement" idk if you could live that man.
Little protip for the quadratics formula part - if b^2 - 4ac >= 0, the root(s) are real. B should always be maximum and then you need to make it so 4 * a * c is less than b^2, emphasis on a being as high as possible
PSA - if you cant close the offline box you get when coming back to the game, press escape on your keyboard. Pls fix :)
developer response: This is a galaxy-specific issue. I currently don't know how to fix this at the moment
First incremental game to burn into my monitor. 5/5
First Achievement : "Tcheater : Use and auto-clicker"
Me : How did he know ?!
