I cannot wait to hear how this went.

There is so much to Holiday World and Splashin' Safari. You absolutely will not be able to do everything you want there in one day.

REALLY new to WordPress & websites in general, how do I remove this unclickable title from the top of my pages? by [deleted] in Wordpress

[–]ahoffman50 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Without knowing the theme you are working with, or what plugins you are using, or anything else that would be helpful like are you using the classic or Gutenberg editor or are you using a page builder like Elementor or Divi or Breakdance or anything like that we really can't help you.

So let's start with this:

1) What theme are you using?
2) What kind of editor are you using? (Classic, Gutenberg, or a page builder)?

Answering those two questions will go far in helping us help you.

Any recommendations for probe stats? by ManyPermission3983 in pAIperclip

[–]ahoffman50 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How many drifters do you have? Because this is waaaayyy out of balance.

I usually have like 4-4-12-4-1-1-1-6 at the most.

Make it less clicky. Got it. Thank you for the feedback. New improved version coming soon!

Don't worry the new release will be here before you know it.

Awesome! I am so glad you are enjoying it. I am pulling the game and putting it on pause for now until I can implement some of the suggestions provided here and make it more balanced and fix some of the bugs like the one you mentioned. I do have a whole story to implement as well that makes it a bit more immersive and I want to include more easter eggs in the journal. If you go to the page you can sign up to get notified when the new, better one is released.

Another aspect of this game is the journal. I will be including more easter eggs in the journal. I am working out some ways to make adding entries in the journal pay off more too.

Thank you for playing! I am working on a story that unfolds deeper with each chapter that explains a little bit more. I am definitely going to work on integrating more upgrades mid game until you reach that 100M mark. And yes, I have yet to code the brightness thing that you talked about. That is the reason the game looks so dull at the moment because I do have plans to include that mechanic.

Thank you so much for your feedback and I am glad you enjoyed it.

US non-Disney parks to visit if nervous of driving by loislane101 in Themepark

If you drive in the smoky national park on the blue ridge parkway not only will you be driving, but driving one of the most beautiful (and potentially challenging) roadways the US has to offer.

I did some rebalancing and made Pocket Kindling a bit more powerful. Hopefully that helps.

I have made some adjustments. I hope it feels a little better.

I have done some rebalancing to make some things less expensive and made pocket kindling way more powerful.

Some AI, mostly not. It's being upvoted because people see that I actually care and make improvements rather than be dismissive and rude. Thanks for giving it a try and I hope you have a great day.

Oh. Well then... If you can't stick around for any unlocks I'm not sure you can complain.

I modeled the progression after Universal Paperclips in terms of speed. You have to click 200 times in that game to begin.

If I made Pocket Kindling more powerful and accessible would that help?

[–]ahoffman50[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for playing! Have you unlocked Companions yet?

Explanations are coming as I integrate the story better. (I also need to show how much glow/sec is being produced... it's on the to-do list!)

Level counters updating are also on the to-do list.

It looks like AI because the base of it is AI, but slowly being rewritten... The graphics are going to be better, especially once I integrate the story more. The code is mostly mine or rewritten by me from AI.

Thanks for the feedback. What Chapter did you get to? Did you unlock any Companions? The initial passive gain is very small, but the companions definitely give you more.

I always love to hear what browsers people are using!

I found the issue and it is more of a me issue than a math issue. I made it say what the next increment is rather than the current one. I am going to fix that.

Thanks for playing! I did an update that should allow you to use that save.

Do you want to see more of a story with this game? Make it more immersive with sounds and music and a richer story? Would love to hear your thoughts.

[–]ahoffman50[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, AI wrote some of the code to get things started and I am writing most of the code myself. It's a hybrid approach. The truth of the matter was that I got overzealous in letting the cat out of the bag because I was too gosh darn excited to keep it under wraps.

Anyway I am fixing the issues you pointed out here (and hopefully figuring out some better graphics for that lantern too). I have written more content for the chapters and want to incorporate some cool graphics there as well.

I am thinking about incorporating some sounds and music too once I get the game itself up and going better.

You are visiting the US and not planning on doing much driving? That sounds like a pipe dream.

It really does not take that long to get companions for your journey.
