[ConVicT]

After yesterday's update, I only get 857 billion cookies for a lucky cookie instead of 1.247 trillion

That's mean, Titan. At that level of world obesity, it's more humane to kill everybody off as quickly as possible.

lucky cookies are 10% of your bank with a maximum depending on your production.

chain cookie also has a maximum depending on your bank account.

And then you said I cheat, I just optimized everything

ps: I trolled you when i told you i finished it, there are updates all the times with new upgrades etc.

[Titanoboa]

I know how lucky cookies work, they nerfed the cap though. Now, with 7x frenzy and lucky cookie combined I can get 7 trillion

I clearly am in the endgame now. I get 573 million cookies per second, have to get only 2 more achievements and 12 more upgrades. It seems the most economical for me at this point is to buy all of the 15% cps increases, but they cost me 10^14 cookies each. This involves waiting about 48 hours per update, excluding golden cookies for which I need to appease the grandmatriachs. Every new 15% increase cookie will make the waiting time of 48 hours shorter, though. And all of the coming 10 15% increases together will increase cookie production by a factor of about 4, making thereafter the remaining upgrades to be bought quickly.

Chrisd! Long time no see!


I currently make 700 million CPS. You'll get there in no time Chrisd!


FLOWERS FOR CHRISD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Titanoboa]

Just completed all currently available achievements (excluding shadow achievements) by buying my 100th time machine and at the same time I went above 1 billion CpS. yay

[chrisd]

wtf are shadow acheivements?

[Jonathan]

Oblivion is a shadow achievement.

[takburger]

wtf are shadow acheivements?

Shadow achievenements are achievements that are not taken into consideration into milk calculation.

Like if you restart the game with a quadrillion in your bank you have the shadow achievement called: "Nihilism".




Also when you restart with a lot of cookies you have something called: "Prestige":

[Z-Man]

I still don't get the point, though.

There are several possible views. I like to think of it as an experiment: with just how little actual gameplay and context can you hook players if only the familiar structures (buy stuff, upgrades, achievements, rewards in the form of ever increasing numbers) are in place? Will they stop playing when there is less and less to actually do later in the game? The answers seem to be "very, very little" and "no". It works for me, anyway. I like myself a spreadsheet game every once in a while.

You can also view this as a parody of (MMO)RPGs. As long as numbers keep climbing, players are happy. Progress Quest is better and older at that, though.

You would not be wrong labelling as a completely pointless waste of time, though.

Hey, there are stroopwafels! But if I want one I just walk to the local supermarket. It's cheaper, too, considering fake stroopwafels aren't very valuable to me.
