I love this concept! It fits the theme perfectly, and I really like that you can control it by actually unplugging your laptop's power supply. The graphics look very nice, and the sound design perfectly fits the game and theme :) If I had any complaint, it would be that the pacing seems a bit too slow at the start, especially for an incremental game like this.

Am I doing this right?
@Sheepolution, great game! I really love the art, and I know, how much time did you spend on it :D Thanks for adding ON/OFF button!
Love the art in this game, quite entertaining. One gripe for me was the pacing is a bit slow takes a long time to charge.
Protip: use the temp power ups early
Wow, unique game. Thought I needed to unplugg a virual laptop in game, took some time before I actually unplugged mine and saw it working. To bad I only had about 20 % so I could't play for very long :P. Nice work, kinda augmented reality mixed with "farmwill type game".
@stevenjmiller What the heck :joy: How did the number not overflow yet?
There is so much to like about this game! It fits the theme extremely well. The graphics, mood and sound/music are very well done. The game is easy to understand (complimented by an excellent UI). And of top of that it has a super interesting and unique gimmick.
Unfortunately the game is very slow paced, and it just isn't that fun to play (for me). Overall I'm giving it a good score however, since the theme, atmosphere and twist is top notch. Great job; an excellent entry!
So far one of the best Concepts i have seen! It's makes fun, have a good taste of humor and the graphics are great! This game makes you realy pushing your laptop to its (power-)limits :)
Nice Concept, i dont like this kind of game but was very inventive and probably very addictive for some people.
Not sure if the battery mechanic works on mac, but I will assume it does given other reviewers.
I like that you used it, but I'm not sure if it used as a multiplier for a heart is a meaningful use of the battery loss. The graphics are great, the heartbeat sound with graphics work really well. Decent clicker otherwise with some non-standard effects. So thats great!
This game looks and sounds very ready and polished. The gameplay progresses slowly, though. Maybe my laptop battery isn't that bad, after all...
Very interesting and creative concept, the use of laptop battery charge is a really cool idea although I felt the game was better when I played with the fake battery mode. Graphics and audio are rather nice too.
I'm really glad that I happened to try this out on my laptop. Without reading the description I started it up, and discovering the gimmick was a big aha moment ^_^ thanks for that.
:star: Your use of the them is great! The graphics are wonderful, and this game feels very well polished. Idle games exist in a weird place between wasting time and commenting on games that waste time. I feel like you found a gimmick that did something new in that space (maybe pointing out the waste of time and energy?), good work (and showing a battery % at the end fit right).
Overall great job, this was a very nice entry!
Great game! I liked the visual and audio atmosphere and the game mechanics are enjoyable.
I wasn't able to use abilities though. When tapping on them, they still show 'ready' and nothing seems to happen. I just played on the latest Android build.
@pouleyketchoupp Whoops, something went wrong when trying to fix the cooldown bug. It should be fixed now. Thanks.
OMG! It took me some time to realize that I actually need to unplug the laptop for real. I was soo amazed by that. Good job Comrade!
I absolutely love the graphical style on this one and great innovation in using the heart, batteries, and blood to come up with a really cool game. Also when running on a laptop, having to actually unplug it is a neat addition. I still have it running as I type this comment and will likely have it up in the background as I review other games. Very nice!
:D What a funny and cool concept ! I don't like idle games but the concept linked to the real cellphone battery pushed me to try to reach the blood amount before my phone was off. The game sucked my battery level so this was challenging and fun :) Probably the best theme's exploitation so far. I think the Blood Cell enhancer is a bit cheap compared to the rest. Very nice visuals and cool ambiant music. Story makes sense and settles the goal. I did not see if something happened when i reached the blood amount :/ what am i going to do with all this blood ? ...Still pumping... Great and surprising game !
Great use of the theme, liked how you brought in the players usage of their own laptop, was a nice personal touch. Also found it pretty addictive and played a lot longer then I'd intended to. Nice job.
