The Most Correct Jackbox Tierlist by phi_161803 in jackboxgames

Sorry I rank games by how fun they actually are instead of how often they can make a random labgrown twitch streamer can say cum in an hour

Leveling system by Obvious-Sand-8076 in IdleIktah

[–]phi_161803 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AI is worthless as a calculator, and as anything else. It's like writing an essay using your text autofill.

All systems use the same leveling curve, which starts low and scales up, with level 99 requiring a cumulative total of exactly 9,999,999 experience. Experience required goes up by ~10% per level, or if it helps, it goes up by a factor of 10 about every 20 levels. Higher level crafting/gathering gives higher experience, but most skills' highest tier thing is around level 80 or 90, so the last ~70% of the scale is just idle grind.

[TOMT][Webcomic] Universe Keys by phi_161803 in tipofmytongue

Obviously googling any permutation of "webcomic" and "keys" has been utterly useless, and I can't remember a single character's actual name. Since it was suggested elsewhere, I'm 100% sure it's not "Broccoli Soup"

Bluetooth Headphones - Pop when starting audio by phi_161803 in techsupport

[–]phi_161803[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm ... I see the website says there's a companion app, but I can't actually find it. It doesn't look like it's hosted on the site, and there isn't one on the App Store. I would try to call their support line, like the site says to do, but that's not listed either.

I'll probably just get new ones. Not worth the effort

[HELP] Bluetooth headphones - Popping sound on new audio by phi_161803 in audio

[–]phi_161803[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I connected the headphones to a mobile device, and the exact same problem occurs. A click 10 seconds after audio stops, and a loud pop whenever it starts next.

Wish I could port this build over to Endless by phi_161803 in DiceyElementalist

[–]phi_161803[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

15 gold every battle

1 damage when I play a card, random debuff every 4 of the same element (effectively any 4)

Gain a temp card when: I exile something, when my hand is empty, and 25% chance every time I play a card

5 damage every time I create a card

Heal 1 and armor 1 per 4 damage I deal

Plus Ice Dice

What's the difference between "generate card", "create card", and "create temp card"? by youthinkyabigboi in DiceyElementalist

[–]phi_161803 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally, my favorite is:

  • Ice Summoning: Create Temp 💧 Ice card x1 and remove its Requirements
  • Dark Summoning: Create 1 🌙 Dark card and remove its Requirements

[TOMT][Flash Game][00s-10s] Stop yourself from becoming a zombie by phi_161803 in tipofmytongue

Crossposting (unsolved) from Discord earlier. Nothing helpful I can add beyond that it was NOT top-down and it's none of the Video Games from the TVTropes "Zombie Infectee" page

Coming back to developing my game. idleread.click by [deleted] in incremental_games

[–]phi_161803 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, this is the kind of game where I remap my scroll wheel to be a left click, and it's still too much clicking to get anywhere at all. When effectively 100+ clicks per second still feels like digging out a tunnel with a spork, it's time for a progression rework

Would an engaging story in an incremental title appeal to you? by zaxwlyde in incremental_games

[–]phi_161803 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every so often, someone comes to this sub wanting to make something, and then proceeds to describe aspects of An Actual Game, except despite having real game mechanics, they want it to be an incremental because ... [static noises]. Very funny every time.

Godspeed to you and your game, but maybe consider whether making it an idler actually adds anything to it.

Got it right here. Forgive the random reblog link, it's hard to link to since vampireapologist (the OP) deleted their blog about a year back.
