hey this game was my absolute jam as a kid and i had a prototype for a thing a few years back that was a lot like it... factory minigame will likely be something either in that direction or factorio-ish. in any case it needs to scratch my conveyor belt fixation

i'm planning on adding a general UI scale option at some point but it's gonna be a bit of work esp since i'd like the pixel art to remain crisp at higher zooms! but it'd be really nice to have not just for accessibility (i believe small font readability is the one thing currently barring us from full Steam Deck compliance) but also because as resolutions get higher over the years the big cookie is starting to look so small and so lonely in its big empty display

nah i think that was the plan initially but that'd be half-assing it. the dungeons involve visiting a new world so they'll likely be rethemed as a portal thing, the factory should probably get something more fitting and i already have a Motherload-like planned for the mines minigame

dutch word for gloves literally translates to "handshoes" idk how much longer i can do this

days getting so dark got me feeling kinda King's Field IV OST: Dark Reality

🎂🎂🎂 hey!!! thanks for all the birthday wishes, i wanna say the best present is reading through all the nice messages people send me day to day about Cookie Clicker. the ones that talk about what my game means to them, or how they bonded with someone over it or how it got them out of tough spots when they were doing bad and needed something to distract them. i'm especially fond of the ones telling me how much trouble it caused in their school or workplace. thank you for making it all worth it

you are doing some pesterchum shit to me

i'm glad... i imagine the market for escapism is gonna be booming moving forward

okay

full-idle rts. you train architects that take over the base-building and your scouts can direct your citizens towards resources to gather. your barracks constantly pump out troops while your academies spawn generals you've already taught waypoints to so they can lead your armies into enemy territories. tech research just happens by itself when criteria are met. highers APMs are a disadvantage. no i don't know what's left for the player to do

Nested 2 is still on my mind and i'm thinking about how fun it is to add more animals because of my specific interest in evolution. i am not particularly science-brained and my understanding of these topics remains superficial and largely wiki-based but i am naturally drawn to biology. however it's been dawning on me that if i want Nested to truly contain everything ever i'm going to have to tackle geology at some point and on that one i am hopelessly out of my depth. what even is any of this

i'd actually say i bake very nice cookies and for the past few years i've tried to bake a batch around every Cookie Clicker birthday! i don't think i could narrow down my favorite non-cookie baked good just now because i do love so many but at the moment i am thinking of my grandma's yoyos, which are deep-fried Tunisian pastries soaked in honey syrup flavored with orange blossom and sometimes topped with chopped pistachios. they're really really good and i haven't had them in ages. i should ask her for her recipe

as far as i'm concerned the world first came into existence on a beautiful November night 34 years ago when my goo goo ga ga fetus ass declared it so

they're doing Mew under the truck things to my game? that's so cool

you come to my page and make it a point to embarrass yourself
