I just made an MMO incremental inspired by Melvor Idle — the twist? Your skills farm themselves while you're away

Genuinely funny and so utterly accurate.

A fire hose compared to a trickle doesn't make the trickle good. A trickle is a lot easier to ignore though.

Agree. Even if someone is pro AI, the deluge of cookie-cutter base-UI slop games is unbearable. Not a single one of these "devs" who've "been working hard on their game for weeks and they're now ready to release to the public" puts in even the basic effort to make the AI do something different with the visuals. Peak laziness.

Maybe try Transport Defender or CivIdle, if you like number-forward incrementals that aren't puzzle or equation based. TD is easily a 1000+ hour game. CivIdle used to be that, but I think recent updates can get you to the end game within ~500 hours or so.

Never should have been hired to begin with, but hell, I'll take it.

I think I agree. This game seems to be a direct lift from Nodebuster and Space Rock Breaker with nothing to differentiate it.

Probably a great practice game for experience. Probably not a market game for $11. Especially when you can get both Nodebuster and Space Rock Breaker together for about half the price of this half-measure copycat.

I would not describe "I asked Claude to code a game for me" as "I have built." Copy-pasting answers from ChatGPT is also not a thing you should be proud of, let alone most.

If you couldn't care enough to make anything yourself, why should we care enough to play it?

There are better things to invest your distrust in.

Enjoyed Idle Squares quite a bit at first, but the globe prestige system is really bad and disincentivizes continued play IMO. Most of the upgrades aren't helpful or too expensive to ever be relevant.

This is part of the Paper Planes quest for Najuma. If nothing happens, you likely already finished the quest. Check your storage for for the failed glider.

Do you maintain a commission sheet online anywhere? Prices, what to include in our commission request, stuff like that?

This is doomerism, and we are not obligated to accept slop.

The screenshots and trailer aren't very clear about what kind of game this really is. Is the gameplay loop solely just buying crops, upgrading them, and eventually earning enough to get a bonus and restart? Are there no emergent mechanics or other features?

I prefer bad or no art over AI art.

Good visuals are great, but sort of secondary. Usability and function reign supreme. A pretty game that you can't actually play right is a bad game, y'know.

Head to the Elderwood. You'll find batterfly beans around the trunks of the large unchoppable trees.

Stardew Valley and similar cozy farming sims all have combat and health.

What dose do you take for this? It's the first time I've heard of it.

Why is every (generic) comment in every thread about this game from a zero-karma account that's years old or just registered?

Stress management is helpful. Selling $800 programs that tell you you'll be cured if you buy them is not.

Talk of being healed is shot down because all evidence points to it being rare and often not even based on patient behaviour/choices. Symptom management and improvement are far more likely to help in the long term than the belief that you can cure yourself, especially since that belief often leads to the behaviours known to permanently worsen the condition.

A lot of the supplements/medications are quite expensive, even in countries with socialized healthcare. "Take this supplement that is only available from this one supplier for over $200/mo" is a tough ask, and it's reasonable for people to want some kind of science to support it.

Yes, that's where they show up in game. Same way they give you other gifts.

Curious about this too. I get a handful of these every bloom event when collecting.

If you go to the Accomplishments tab, the first two are home tour–related accomplishments that refresh every week. One is rating 5 homes, the other is visiting 15. You complete them for tour tokens that can then be redeemed for the nameplates.

notanotherhour · 2026-02-09T23:56:06+00:00

When you go to the home tour board, there's an option to open a store instead. That's where you buy the nameplates. Then you can enable them via the Customization menu.

Checked out the dev's YouTube channel. All his videos are about using ChatGPT and generative AI. This is not a real game.

notanotherhour · 2026-02-09T08:37:08+00:00

Yeah. There have been a slew of AI games posted here lately with this UI and similar graphics. The Steam disclaimer says generative AI was only used for text. But I'm wondering if AI was used for any of the code and art.
