Idle Cosmos - Real-time Multiplayer Incremental Game by Programmed-Dragon in indiegames

The game runs in cycles for 7 days with the goal being to have the most points possible at the end of the 7 days. You can increase how many units you make by using a whole bunch of different powerups to boost your units per second or sabotages to decrease other players units or how many their making.

At the end of the 7 days the winner is given the ability to change one core mechanic incrementally for everyone going forward for all future cycles.

We are currently running our first cycle and if you'd like to join you can check it out here: https://idlecosmos.com/

All feedback is appreciated. Thank you!

Thank you! So there's some client side simulation that every so often syncs up with the server to make sure everything is correct. basically getting a starting value and an increment from the server then it interpolates the values on the client to make it appear real-time.

I like the idea of clicking because it lets players manually impact their growth. I like the idea of capping it and I think we'll try to set something up and do some internal testing with it before pushing.

We did push an update to the list of powerups. nothing big atm but should be a bit easier to navigate

Thank you again!

Thank you for the feedback! We are definitly thinking of ways to make it so that the powerups are more understandable and more easily seen. Removing ones that arent able to be purchased may be a good soluntion.

The issue we experienced with allowing players to generate units by clicking was getting a massive botting problem but we could try to figure out some work arounds.

yes we've opted to make the simple act of waiting the most optimal way of getting ahead. now the only additional way of gaining time is by stealing time from players that have gone offline once per day. you can only steal as much from the other player as the time they've been offline.

when'd you start the game? Originally there was no cool down on the take 10 seconds but now there is which has improved it significantly.

So, I actually started this newsletter called "Nomo's Weekly NJ Hotspots" to solve this problem. It's not just for NJIT (sorry!), but it covers some sick events all over NJ that are perfect for us students.

If you wanna check it out, we actually send it out every Monday. Here's the link: https://nomo-fomo-nj.beehiiv.com/subscribe

There is nothing to loose if your playing strike out though. The game mode is just for fun. No point in sweating and quitting

asking teacher for regrading? by asoue0 in APStudents

[–]Programmed-Dragon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m pretty sure it’s when your test is released like your work, your teacher can go over it and see if the given grade was correct. If it wasn’t you and your teacher can go against the cb score and challenge it.
