Time Transcending Clocks

The more I play this game the more confused I become and overwhelmed by the amount of stuff I have to keep track of. This game is fun even though I mentioned earlier it was not something I hate or like, but it would be helpful to know how much per second I'm gaining with the resources I have as well as what you have now with the resources increasing. I like that though it could help taking out the confusing aspect of it. I'm in agreement with Tangerine102 About the sheer amount of stuff going on. Maybe I'm just missing something here.

Also, for some reason I started the game with 2k purple crystals

Good concept but this game just throws way too much stuff at me at the start and it's hard to keep track of everything. Also took me a while to realize I could scroll down because no scroll bar was displayed.

I really like this game! The various chains of progression are really satisfying to play out—you need a to get b to get c to facilitate the production of g, you know—and I absolutely have to compliment how well the complexity is handled. Some of the systems—from where I am, anyway—kind of start to buckle the further you get into the game, and you can use crystals to trivialize what I consider to be the most engaging section of the game, but if you play the first forty to fifty hours right, you'll have a ton of fun.

I think my only real gripe is that—and I should emphasize that I'm not even sure if this is a real problem or if it's my fault—once you get deeper into your playtime, there're so many calculations going on that the game starts to slow down pretty dramatically. I'm not talking about progression, I'm talking about, like, ticks per second. My potions, for instance, take about three seconds for every second. That's the kind of grind that makes my brain sad, 'cause I know it's not intentional. (It's not, right?)

Again, it could just be my shitty laptop's problem, but I think it'd be neat if there were an extra setting or two to help reduce resources—either way, the game is most assuredly a pretty greedy resource hog. From my perspective, it's really not a major hang-up, and I absolutely adore this game—one of my favorite time-wasters, as a matter of fact—and it's a constant shock to remember that this isn't a classic that's been out for, like, five years.

Really just phenomenal game. Cannot recommend enough. (Unless you hate fun.) ((Or progression chains.))

Bug found: When you Purchase the "-1,000,000,000 Golden Shards to increase Jeweler production Significantly" it actually ceases all production. Once the jewelers stop make golden clocks, it essentially breaks the game.

my immediate first impression is that everything in this game is absolutely screaming for my attention and information is scattered all over the pages in a million different colors and icons

the end result is that i am borderline overwhelmed despite the gameloop literally just being "click the thing to sell them for money so you can buy things to make another thing" which is... impressive?

I want to like this game, but it's just a mess. You have to buy too many chains of items before it's automated enough, and even then, meh... Maybe some people like this style, I just can't get into it.

The good:
-Large amount of content
-Interesting progression mechanics
-Decent sense of humor
-Crystals merge offline and online play well

The bad:
-Long wait times, even with 100x gamespeed, to buy certain upgrades (prior to Coal Machines)
-Resources don't show where they're coming from or going, and at what rates
-Researches don't show up until you have enough science to even see them, and "You'll need a lot of scientists" isn't a very helpful hint.
-Some things can't be multi-bought even with omni-managers, meaning long stretches of holding down enter/autoclicker.

The ugly:
-Power flickering between stable/unstable/not fully powered adjusts text sizes on the menu, making it difficult to adjust power priority.
-The UI. Flashing, pulsing, glowing text - it's all an eyesore.
-An "itemToAdd is undefined" bug permanently corrupted my save.

Overall, I'd continue playing if I could, but there's definitely work to be done here. (To the dev - what's the best way to submit a bug report?)

update: no, this is like... actually kind of unpleasant to play once you start auto-earning money. i can't easily keep track of what resources i have or what they're used for, the costs of everything are buried in their tooltips (assuming you can even find them, because they seem to be placed according to the rule "be vaguely next to some currency they interact with", settings like an autoclicker and an autoseller are directly next to important structures for some reason... and all of this wouldn't be so bad if the main way of progression was not resources that make other resources that make other resources, which quickly turns into a nightmare when i can barely tell what i have or what anything costs.

i mean there's a skeleton of a good game somewhere here but... the UI really, really needs work

You should implement a reduce motion mode
