Interesting take on the idle game genre. I don't like idle games to be honest, but the concept is neat.

hey! the game is good, samo of the questions where well chosen. after a while it turns out very repetitive imo. but the concept is good and creative. great job. keep the good work!

Nice innovative idea! Well done

bitpokit 2020-04-21 19:38

Very creative game!

Interesting game entry. Liked the idea but the waiting for money part while staring at the corner got boring after a while. Good effort!

Cool Idea, good execution ! I felt like recharging while in fast mode made the battery last longer though ? also an indicator to know when in fast mode would be cool.

Sweet! Made it to the hologram phone. Nice game. Simple and well made. Good job.

Nice, loved the brick phone, totally got me educated a bit since most of the questions I had to google to answer :D But sometimes the battery drained so fast from about 20% that I couldn't even open the shop before it died

the game is fun, but i don't think the questions add anything to it.

Maybe you could add some meta stats increases in between rounds so that once you get far, you don't have to wait around so long in the part of the game you have already seen. Very cool idea though!

I didn't see many idle games on this ludum dare, but the hacker attacks seemed a little too forced at times and all I could do at a point is just buy the weakest battery. Of course, I could just be bad at the game, but I consider there should be some way of working around the wall in the progression of the game. Cool concept though.

Nice little game ! I've found myself to play more than I expected when downloading :) The chill music helps a lot.

picusbgames 2020-04-21 19:53

haha nice victory message :) Sorta fun idler, I like it well done :)

I'm not a fan of such idle game genre and I'm not too sure about why the setup is some general questions, but learned some things anyway :)

I like the fast mode but not too sure if it shouldn't be on almost all the time? Music is nice, it can be listen on a loop without bothering.

I think sometimes the battery behavior is a bit weird... not too sure if thats the hackers or a bug, maybe make the hacker attack a bit more obvious to understand why the battery is drained so fast sometimes?

Everything seems to work as expected, well done :)

nice and innovative concept!

I like idle games. Good job, the feeling of progression is very good. It makes sense that the "newer" phones discharge super fast. Good job.

Fun game, but the objective felt more like making money than to keep the phone alive

fabrito 2020-04-21 19:58

Nice graphics and suited the theme well. I've tried to play with my son, but he lost interest quickly because the battery was being drained fast, even though it was just a can and strings (good one, btw), and it made him nervous and not want to play anymore...

A fun game that takes a bit getting used to! The beginning was a bit slow, but the later parts of the game was really fun and engaging. The grapics were pretty good as was the music. As an improvment, i would add a counter on how many times you could recharge your phone and a indication when in fast mode. Really good take on the theme tho, really felt that you were desperatly trying to keep your phone alive. Overall a great game!

Hey! Nice game. It has a super-clear connection to the theme and a couple of things that are typically needed (and often missing), like in-game instructions and a working UI. It's a basic game with straightforward mechanics that tie in nicely with the theme (and it's a web build!), which I dig.

A couple of basic things would make this better for me: * Make it so the D-battery (super important!) isn't greyed out - I didn't realize I could buy it. * Don't have the notifications lay on top of the Amazoon menu (makes it hard to click on stuff) * More ambient-ish/longer in-game music -- something that loops without being too repetitive * **Break up the menu into a few slides!** As-is, the rules are a touch overwhelming (even though the game itself is simple)

This is a really good example of a game where the mechanics are simple and complement each other well. While I didn't have a ton of fun playing it, I appreciate how clean it is, and the thoughtful touches (pausing while you're buying stuff) that make it feel like a real (non-jam) game.

Nice idea and fun to play. It was a bit hard after I failed a question and the batteries started draining really fast, and the money weren't coming fast enough to buy a new phone or a better battery.

henrycgs 2020-04-21 21:24

Nice game! Made it to the flip phone, then I moved away from my keyboard and the battery ran out before I could reach the button again

Personally, I think that, of course, the most ingenious applications are those with which you can even hack someone's phone. I didn't think it was possible before, but as practice has shown it is very possible. I found and [click here](https://celltrackingapps.com/hack-cell-phone/) to study information about phone hacking and how exactly this can be achieved, what are the special and really working applications for tracking a phone without any particular effort. I recommend reading it.
