description
An incremental game about Galaxy Conquest, starting from a few Hydrogen Atoms!
You will collect atoms, sell them, build Research collectors, Research Techs, Discover Asteroids, Travel to them to mine Antimatter, and Eventually Conquer the Galaxy!
More or less an active game, but there is an off line gains mechanic if you want to save up resources over night.
Each run is pretty linear and the end goal is to conquer the Star Map. Still under development but you can already do a complete run, rebirth, and add perks to speed up future runs. There is a help section in the game, and it has cloud saving.
Enjoy!

autosave should be on by default. it's insane for it not to be.
I want to mention that "KW /s" is redundant. Watts are by definition Joules per Second, it's a measure of a rate of energy. Watts are a measure of power, or energy flux. So W/s would be moreso like the acceleration rate of energy production.
Antimatter mining is broken on galaxy, seems to work fine on itch.io. Per my stats I have mined ~26k antimatter but only have ~650 available. Just swapped save to itch and my antimatter available actually goes up as I mine. Pioneer-Nanu365 is my Pioneer name.
Suggestion, Autosave default as on not off. A Majority of games have their autosave either always on or default as toggled on. I was wondering why the autosave was not working, well I never turned it on because I thought it was already! Might be source of alot of peoples confusion.
Unfortunatly the game breaks on chrome after a day or two and exporting the save doesn't always work properly. I keep loosing progression. I'm sorry, but until the save issue has been fixed I'll have to stop playing :(. But I linke the game.
developer response: Sorry, I imagine it is due to this game being played on exactly the same server as where I am pushing changes every day. Nothing is breaking but if a change is pushed while you are playing it can change things. I always recommend to play with autosave on which protects your save on the cloud every few minutes, and reloading a save from there should never fail. If you want a stable version, best to play on itch:

Definitely trouble with autosave. Played for a bit, turned it off for an hour, got back to discover that i'm back to having just 600 hydrogen. Sooo, like hour of playing at least gone, i guess.
developer response: I have migrated user data to another provider for the save cloud.
It works now, but if any save data is lost, please let me know, but it should be pretty smooth.
This provider also has limits, so may stop working in the future, where I will have to
look at paid options. I would appreciate feedback.

use manual export / import. auto save doesn't work well.

At least on galaxy in particular, I imagine you could use the built-in cloud saving API? Though it might be a bit of a hassle to integrate it alongside firebase, not sure: https://galaxy.click/docs/dev/features/saving
the game randomly just bugs out and freezes everything on me. i become unable to load a cloud save either. it just acts as a soft lock that i have to fully restart. Honestly this game has so much potential and i love it. just wish it wouldnt just glitch out on me randomly.

I don't really like this one, sorry. UI is awkward and what you need to click and buy isn't 100% apparent.
developer response: sorry to hear - there is a 'CosmicoPedia' in the Settings tab which gives a bit of guidance. I will try to improve the UI going forward.
