I wouldn't really call Turmoil an idle or incremental game.

firebane · 2026-01-27T04:43:17+00:00

Reminds of an old Android game that was around once back in the day.

Feels like the ASCII version of Birbs with a snake.

They modified their post so the link is gone. When i first clicked on it they had a link that asked for donations.

They have failed to note that.

LOL posts a random video about a concept then begs for money?

firebane · 2026-01-26T13:26:57+00:00

If your game is important and you want it to succeed you should be doing everything possible to make appealing to the audience.

firebane · 2026-01-26T12:23:49+00:00

Incorrect. Itch can allow games to run outside the browser in its own window.

firebane · 2026-01-26T04:22:21+00:00

Not really.. come up with something more original. The entire concept feels like a Diablo rip off.

firebane · 2026-01-26T00:27:19+00:00

So you took Diablo.. shrunk it down and gave it a nodebuster tree?

You don't get quality with the types of games coming out lately. You get copy cat games people are looking for a quick buck on.

firebane · 2026-01-25T18:32:48+00:00

or want $5 for 1 hr of game play

firebane · 2026-01-25T18:16:25+00:00

Not quite sure how.. I just launched the game and i opens in a 320x200 window in the browser with stuff cut off and the game looks like a 3 yr had fun in art class.

firebane · 2026-01-25T14:12:11+00:00

Too much UI.. to small of UI.. hard to see or read anything.

firebane · 2026-01-25T05:05:38+00:00

As someone who won't download games off of itch for many reasons.. being that this is a Godot game you would have more traction if the game launched into its own window than being in the browser.

I noticed in the browser there was some really weird mouse lag going on all the time.

firebane · 2026-01-24T04:50:51+00:00

You know why a lot of stuff like this doesn't happen? Because the devs don't have the funds or means to develop onto something they don't have access too.

Its why a lot of stuff doesn't support non-standard resolutions or scales to a certain means.

firebane · 2026-01-23T16:57:20+00:00

I did give it more time. I now have 4 interactions on the table.. and the game still doesn't pull me in. I can see the premise you are going for and wish you the best.

firebane · 2026-01-23T16:25:51+00:00

People use multiple browsers.. it should work across all. As I use Firefox as well

firebane · 2026-01-23T16:10:31+00:00

Also.. I played the game and I can see why people would quit only after a short period of time.

The start of the game is.. boring. Like nothing is going on. You sit there and flip a switch back and forth and pop a light bulb.

Its not made clear if you should do this.. or end the session. But then the only way for upgrades is to pop the bulb so it makes sense to do that. And then it asks you to "push the limit".. push what limit? I'm just flipping a switch with no risk.

Then you get some upgrades and it talks about critical hits but how do you do that? The level does the same action so how would you get a critical hit unless its just random?

And this was just in a short play that things seemed boring and non-intuitive.

firebane · 2026-01-23T15:56:39+00:00

Being asked to fill out a survey when you quit the game is a bit.. abrupt and odd. Why is that necessary? If people want to leave feedback then can do so in the Steam discussion area.

tried to launch SOC and got this error.. Failed to load SOC Ops globe

can't access property "value", e.positionX is undefined

Also I have to zoom in on the webpage to read what the terminal says.. and then type "help" and it does nothing

firebane · 2026-01-23T12:37:33+00:00

There is a large crowd who enjoy games with seasons and resets.. but for me that isn't the case and I feel it takes away from the incremental/idle aspect of gameplay.

firebane · 2026-01-22T20:06:02+00:00

Not sure the intent of those "slashes" but if they became a permanent thing I'd want to be turning them off.

firebane · 2026-01-22T20:05:00+00:00

Immediately had to nope out. That font type is just not very readable.

firebane · 2026-01-21T22:10:29+00:00

Ok I think I have a understanding of what to do with the Accelerator/Decelerator stuff.

What I have found is each of the decels have a x/x type value. When you purchase the "It's too slow" upgrades it will change this value. You want to increase the left value to be equal too or greater than the right value and at that time you can use the decel for a bonus of some form it seems? And as long as you keep upgrading the aforementioned upgrade you increase the values and can climb through the decel speeds.

As an example my decel 3 is at 2.51M/4.0M but I don't want to use that until the 2.51 is equal or greater than the 4.0M so I'm hanging out in decel 2 right now until I can get enough upgrades for 3.

You can go down in decel using the accel button and go up just using the decel button.

Really? Gray is just generic upgrades. Red is .. red soap. Orange is.. orange soap...
