description
Math-based incremental game, mainly focused on Algebra. Features mechanics like Variables, Functions, Square Root, Quadratic Formula, and more. Has 2 prestige layers and a mini-prestige. Your goal is to collapse the universe, so good luck with that.
Thank you to @manfroze#9931 for the 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.

-Fixed a bug where having NaN points gave you all point-based Achievements and sometimes triggered the ending sequence.
-Fixed a bug where you can gain lots of Challenge Essence by unlocking Root Epicenter while in Square Root.
-Replaced the AP Classic link with a working one.
-Finally made Building buy max work correctly.
-Actually fixed Quadratic Formula display issues.
-Actually fixed the visual issue with Auto-Quadratic mode.

Anyone got any tips for 40 upgrade points? I'm making about 2e27 i every second, but I'm not able to get up to the next complex upgrade at 1e32 i. Am I missing something, or is this the current endgame? feels like it would take weeks to achieve any progress. I feel like I've tried every combination of complex upgrades with UP, and I've gotten up to 5e5715 root essence and can't seem to get higher. My Complex plane numbers are also high and don't seem to be growing much :(
What are the best complex upgrades if you have 18 UPs? What about up to 60 UPs?
what does X do
developer response: X can buy upgrades and is how you purchase Y
Great game, thoroughly suffered the consequences of my actions
developer response: Glad you enjoyed it!
when i opened the game it said i beat the game for a split second then went back to normal
developer response: game tweakin frfr

"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.
First Achievement : "Tcheater : Use and auto-clicker"
Me : How did he know ?!
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
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
First incremental game to burn into my monitor. 5/5
