Really creative idea! I'm using the 0+x=x method. Upgrades are also very interesting. I do hope the typing can be easier, like if I can just type out 0+1=1 instead of using mouse click to switch boxes (maybe there is a easier way to switch box that I didn't know?). But also it's an incremental game, so manual typing is not that important afterwards.

Very funny game, I love getting insulted for wrong math :laughing: Had trouble understanding the mechanics at first because I misread the ~n digits per second as - (minus) n digits per second.

Going to leave this one up for a few hours and see how many sums it can generate. This is a neat idea for an incremental

@absolute-garbage You're right the switching between the boxes is an unsolved problem :sweat_smile: Currently you can use tab/shift+tab to move between boxes but that's also not perfect. Thanks you guys for playing though!! :hearts:

The evil Cacula is vanquished! Haha, nice game. I think there were a few checks that were incorrect, the game said they were duplicates but they couldn't have been based on my method. I think mainly anytime i added with 0 (e.g., 10 + 0, or 15 + 0) using 0 first never had that issue.but i only added with 0 to 10 in that method. Anyways i enjoyed it. Good job. Oh and ............................... Happy Ludum Dare #55 :) <3

this is a really cool idea, but it wasn't exactly clear what it meant by digits. I thought I was just getting a fixed number of points or something for unique equations but i couldn't figure out how that worked. It took a few playthroughs to realize i was getting a point for each character in the equation which includes the operators.

I was tempted to leave it running in the background but I think it really needs some sort of big flashy point font or animation showing me all the points I'm getting.

oh, and I just used tab to switched between the boxes which worked fine.

I was a bit confused, and it could have used a small introduction. But okay the idea is simple and pretty fun. Overall a fine little jam game.

I have absolutely no idea what I'm supposed to do. Can't say much about the game, except I would have like a detailed tutorial in game about what was expected of me as a player. Good job for finishing it in time anyway!
